== RICH ON-LINE MONITOR FOR SHIFT WORKERS ==
 
 
Go on the ''New HallA Tools, "EDM (HLAMain)'' (the old works also fine), click on <u>RICH Detector</u> then check:
 
* '''Radiator Pressure''' ~ '''10 V''',
 
* '''Power Supplies''' ~ '''3.8 V''' (both polarities: A nearly 3.76 V, B nearly 3.93 V),
 
 
then click on the <u>CAEN</u> buttom;
 
 
the ''Crate 1'' window pop up, click on <u>Modules</u> and then again on the next window ''Crate #1'' click on <u>Modules</u> of ''Module 2'' (the only active module, then you can check and modify HV).
 
 
Channel 16 and Channel 17 are the only channels connected to the detector.
 
 
They have to be on:
 
* Status "Normal",
 
* HVon have to be "ON"
 
* the voltage "Vmon" has to correspond to the voltage "Vset"
 
  i. nominally between 2200 and 2300 for Channel 16
 
  i. between 200 and 400 on Channel 17.
 
 
If not, click on the <u>Module 2 Controls Screen</u> button, on the bottom of the panel, and click on <u>HVon ON</u>, then the HV should raise up very slowly, 5 V/s.
 
 
If a trip occurred, the Status of the channel will be ''Trip'', after turning on the HV go back to the first ''Crate 1'' window and click on <u>Clear All Alarm</u>.
 
 
Then the status should change into ''Up'' and eventually into ''Normal''.
 
 
== Turn HV OFF DURING BEAM STUDIES OR CONFIGURATION CHANGES OF L-HRS. ==
 
 
In case of repetitive trips, keep HV OFF also during configuration changes of BigBite.
 
 
If the RICH is continuing tripping, keep HV off and call one of the [[RICH experts]],
 
 
Do not try to keep HV on more than twice consecutively.
