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
  • Also updated the CODA3 (rudimentary version) Database
  • 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 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)
