July 28th, 2018 Testers: Cameron, Ye Tian, and Bob
Goals
- Test QWeak ADCs in Counting House Parity DAQ to verify that the Control.db updates by Bob are working and PAN (~apar/pan/bpan18)
Testing channel mapping and PAN ADC arithmetic
For notes on 12 and 16 bit DAC calibration see July 28th DAQ Testing Notes.
To use the DACs:
- Log into the Counting House ROC with telnet over acons1 console server (see Network Map)
- Set the DAC output level with the C code command setDACHAPTB(DAC#,Level#)
- Read the DAC output level with a voltmeter (as a check of functionality)
- DAC# 1 = 12bit, 2 = 16 bit
- 12 Bit DAC Level#, positive voltages for values that range within Level ⊂ [0, 2^12 - 1 = 4095] modularly
- 16 Bit DAC Level#, negative to positive voltages for values that range within Level ⊂ [0, 2^16 - 1 = 65535] modularly
