Agenda
- Bob : Fix Trigger Supervisor DAQ to communicate correctly with Injector DAQ from ADAQ3 computer
- Bob : Fix Counting Room DAQ (should be easy)
Minutes
- Morning - 9AM - Bob : remembered that the DAQ database was set to run on COMPTON computer, not ADAQ3, so fixing that helped
- Using the ROC24/Injector ADAQ2 and adding it to the CODA 2.6.2 databases works.
- Also updated the CODA3 (rudimentary version) Database (msqld is CODA 2 database system, cool is the CODA 3 database system)
- Also set tsP variable to 0 globally at boot to prevent symbol-undefined complaints
- Also made sure to turn on the ACONS console server so that it can be used to monitor rebooting process of trigger supervisor and DAQ computers
- The CODA ROC (Read Out Controller) in the Injector dies frequently (due to the injector's rate being too high - 1.1kHz, so we called the accelerator people and they reduced to ~50 Hz)
- To Fix the CODA ROC (running VXWorks on a powerpc) Bob has installed a small rasberry pi computer (rpi12 on the network, accessible through ssh) and it serves as a serial port connection into the ROC that allows for remote power cycling using the Minicom software (similar to telnet, but doesn't require buying a console server)
- Morning - 11AM - Bob : including the counting room injector into the mix
- Using the ROC23/Counting-house ADAQ6 to the trigger supervisor (TS) (it didn't work without the trigger supervisor) by editing configurations and the like.
