Hardware

HV

Slow controls

The HV crates can be controlled through 3 different methods:

  • telnet: as of 07-07-10: works but the whole method is clumsy
  • ARCNET: in progress, scripts exist but have not yet been tested. 07-07-10: Alex will send Julie the info about this so one can work on it during July
  • JAVA: Vince Sulkolsy is working on that and said he will let us use his scripts once they are working. 07-07-10:Carlos will follow up

Need to set the hardware limit to ~900 V using the potentiometer at the back of the crate
