CODA scripts

Frontend scripts to use on tedbbdaq

`startCoda`

executes each CODA component (platform, rcgui, PEB, all ROCs) in a separate xterm

`restartStuff`

kills and restarts the PEB and ROCs. The xterms are not killed with this script.

`kcoda`

kills all CODA components

`coda_scripts`

- github page

- Scripts locations:

bbgem@tedbbdaq

- ~/sbs-onl/coda_scripts/

sbs-onl@intelbbgem

- ~/coda_scripts/

Useful stand-alone programs

`remex`

log into any machine first with the sbs-onl (e.g.)

 ssh sbs-onl@tedbbdaq

$CODA_BIN/remex <remexHost> <function call>

Execute a function call on the specified remote Host

- Run without arguments for usage

Usage for setting trigger source (BBGEM only)

TSINPUT

remex bbgemROC19 "rocSetTriggerSource(0)"

Random Pulser

remex bbgemROC19 "rocSetTriggerSource(1)"

Fixed Pulser

remex bbgemROC19 "rocSetTriggerSource(2)"

MPD programs

log into the VME Controller first with the sbs-onl (e.g.)

 ssh sbs-onl@intelbbmpd2

`mpdStatus`

$LINUXVME/mpd/libsrc/test/mpdStatus <mpd slot number>

Show the status of MPD at slot <mpd slot number>

- Run without <mpd slot number> to scan all slots.

`mpdApvConfig` (formerly i2c_test)

$LINUXVME/mpd/libsrc/test/mpdApvConfig <mpd slot number> <configfile>

Test the initialization and configuration of the APVs in the specified MPD.

- Does the same initialization that is done in mpd_list.c:rocDownload()

- Also attempts the readback of the APV registers with mpdApvStatus(0)

`mpdI2CScan`

$LINUXVME/mpd/libsrc/test/mpdI2CScan <mpd slot number>

Scan i2c addresses for any APVs from MPD in specified slot number

- Configure those found APVs with some default register values

- Display the APV registers

`mpdFiberStatus`

$LINUXVME/mpd/libsrc/test/mpdFiberStatus <mpd slot number>

Display the status of the fiber transceiver

`ProgramEpcs`

$LINUXVME/mpd/libsrc/firmware/ProgramEpcs -s <mpd_vme_slot> -v <firmware .jic file>

Update MPD firmware at specified VME address.

- Described in https://hallaweb.jlab.org/dvcslog/SBS/251

`RunUserFpga`

$LINUXVME/mpd/libsrc/firmware/RunUserFpga -s <mpd_vme_slot> (-f)

Change between user and factory FPGA image.

- Described in https://hallaweb.jlab.org/dvcslog/SBS/251

SSP programs

log into the SSP crate first with the sbs-onl

 ssh sbs-onl@intelbbgem

`sspMpdStatus`

~/linuxvme/ssp/test/sspMpdStatus <ssp slot number>

Show the status of SSP at slot <sp slot number>, as well as their fiber connected MPDs

- Run without <ssp slot number> to scan all slots.

`sspMpdInit`

~/linuxvme/ssp/test/sspMpdInit

Same function as ssp_mpd_setup() in the readout list without running CODA

`sspFirmwareUpdate`

~/linuxvme/ssp/firmware/sspFirmwareUpdate <firmware .bin file> <SSP VME ADDRESS>

Update SSP at specified VME address.

VTP programs

log into the VTP first with the sbs-onl. All programs are in $PATH.

 ssh sbs-onl@sbsvtp3

`vtpMpdStatus`

vtpMpdStatus

Show the status the VTP as well as its connected MPDs (those found with channel up)

`vtpMpdInit`

vtpMpdInit cfgFileName

Initialize VTP and their attached MPDs and APVs (those found with channel up)
If cfgFileName is provided, use it to define the MPD and APV to initialize

`vtpMpdFiberStatus`

vtpFiberStatus

Show the status of all fiber channels on the VTP

- executes vtpMpdPrintStatus(0, 0)

`vtpMpdSampleMode` phase scan

vtpMpdSampleMode config_file out-data_file par0 par1 par2

config_file = VTP/MPD/APV config file
out_data_file = output file
par0 = min_clock_phase
par1 = max_clock_phase
par2 = clock_phase_step
Same as original mpdLibTest, acq_mode = 2

`vtpMpdHistoMode` HISTO mode

vtpMpdHistoMode config_file out-data_file par0 par1

config_file = VTP/MPD/APV config file
out_data_file = output file
par0 = gain
par1 = MPD mask, if bnit set corresponding MPD (fiber) configuration disabled
Same as original mpdLibTest, acq_mode = 4

other VME programs

log into the VME controller first with the sbs-onl

 ssh sbs-onl@intelbbgem

`tiLibTest`

$CODA_VME/ti/test/tiLibTest <TI slot number>

Test triggering capabilities of the local TI.

- Puts the local TI in master mode (with no slaves).

- Accepts triggers either from Front Panel TSinputs or Internal Random Pulser

`vme_display`

$CODA_VME_BIN/vme_display <VME Address> <read size in bytes>

Display the read value of specified size from the specified VME address.

- Run without arguments for usage

`vme_modmem`

$CODA_VME_BIN/vme_modmem <VME Address> <read/write size in bytes>

Modify the value of specified size of the specified VME address.

- Run without arguments for usage

platform on tedbbdaq

log into tedbbdaq first with the sbs-onl

 ssh sbs-onl@tedbbdaq

`sudo systemctl restart platform`

sudo systemctl restart platform

Restart the CODA 3 platform systemd service.

- Can be run from any account in the 'coda' group on tedbbdaq

- bbshower, bbhodo, bbgem, daq

MPD/SSP/APV Config files

Config files for configuration of APVs and MPD / SSP can be found in

- sbs-onl@intelbbgem:~/bbgem-cfg/

The SSP readout list (mpd5_ssp_list.so) uses

- sbs-onl@intelbbgem:~/bbgem-cfg/ssp_config.txt

- sbs-onl@intelbbgem:~/bbgem-cfg/ssp_apv_default.txt

The MPD readout list (mpd_list.so, mpd_slave_list.so) uses

- sbs-onl@intelbbgem:~/bbgem-cfg/mpd_config.txt

- sbs-onl@intelbbgem:~/bbgem-cfg/mpd_apv_default.txt

Both use common files to configure the MPDs/APVs given the MPD's slot number. For example, slot 5 MPD:

- sbs-onl@intelbbgem:~/bbgem-cfg/bbgem_crate_1/MPD_vmeSlot_5.cfg

Programs useful for debugging config file format

- $LINUXVME/mpd/libsrc/test/mpdConfigTest <config filename>

- $LINUXVME/mpd/libsrc/test/sspMpdConfigTest <config filename>

Superbigbite Logbook Entries

Entry script:

- daq@tedbbdaq:~/gem_scripts/MakeEntry.sh %(rt) <START/END> %(rn)

- DAQNAME=BBGEM

- Executed by PEB1 before Prestart and after End
