login / ROC environment

The login environment (bash) for sbs-onl is shared for intelsbshcal1, intelsbshcal2. hcalvtp1, hcalvtp2.

Home directory

The home directory is linked to the hcal subdirectory of the sbs-onl home directory on adaqfs. That is:

/home/sbs-onl -> /adaqfs/home/sbs-onl/hcal

Environment

Below we show the main variables that are critical to run the DAQ. Others important ones will to be derived from these.

CODA = /adaqfs/home/sbs-onl/coda/3.10_devel
CODA_SCRIPTS = /home/sbs-onl/coda_scripts
LINUXVME = /home/sbs-onl/linuxvme
SESSION = hcal
EXPID = SBSDAQ
FADC250_PARAMS = ${HOME}/cfg

VME

Configuration for the VME modules, readout lists for the CODA ROC, and auxiliary libraries specific to the modules in these crates.

configuration files

Configuration files used by the DAQ (ROC, or other programs) are in here

${HOME}/cfg/

f1tdc

Configuration for the f1tdc modules in hcal2

f1tdc/hcal_f1tdc_3125.cfg

fadc250

Configuration for the fadc250 modules in hcal1 and hcal2 (with and without Trigger supervisor)

fadc250/hcal_ts.cnf
fadc250/hcal.cnf

mpv904

Configuration for the mpv904 DAC for threshold control

mpv904/mpv904_DAC_Voltage_Set_Values.txt

readout lists

Readout lists used for standalone (hcal1 + hcal2) or in trigger supervisor mode. There are located in

${HOME}/rol

hcal1_list.c
hcal2_list.c

They are built using the Makefile

make

Or forced build (like make clean;make, but shorter)

make -B

The repo for these is hosted at github.

aux libraries/programs

Some libraries and programs specific to the HCAL DAQ are found in here

${HOME}/linuxvme/

If you make updates, please remember to install the library in order for it to be used with the readout list or other external programs using $LINUXVME

make install

f1tdc-v1

Library to support the configuration and readout of the JLAB V1 F1TDC module.

f1tdc-v1/

test/f1tdcLibTest # program to test initialization of f1tdcs in crate.

hcal

Library to set output levels on the TI output ports. I think this is used for an LED pulser?

hcal_pulser/

mpv904

Library to Configure and set DAC output levels to control detector thresholds.

mpv904/

other helpful programs

fadc250

${HOME}/linuxvme/fadc-HallB-utils
faConfigTest # Test if specified config file will pass correctly through the configuration library
fadc250peds  # Sample the channel inputs randomly and output stats for pedestal calibration

firmware/
fadcFirmwareUpdate  # update firmware for a single FADC
fadcGFirmwareUpdate # update firmware for all FADC in crate

VTP

All libraries and programs relevant for the VTP are in

${HOME}/vtp

You should expect to find binaries that are compiled for ARCH=armv7l. When logged in as sbs-onl

LINUXVME=${HOME}/vtp

i.e.

LINUXVME_INC=${HOME}/vtp/include
LINUXVME_LIB=${HOME}/vtp/Linux-armv7l/lib

hcalvtp1.cnf
hcalvtp2.cnf
