ECAL Temperature readout

Fabio Ferrarotto edited this page Sep 25, 2020 · 10 revisions

You can log on dcs@l0padme1 and do a single readout of the ECAL temperature sensors (1 sensor per each connected readout card - so it does NOT crash the DAQ):

  1. cd padme-dcs
  2. nohup ./mon_ecal_temp_1.sh > /dev/null &

If you want the DCS live timeplot to run :

  1. cd history
  2. nohup ./timeplot_ecal_1.sh > /dev/null &

Never run the TOTAL ECAL temperature readout with DAQ going on !!!!!

When the shifter in charge knows that there will be no beam for an extended (>20 minutes) period of time AND the DAQ has been stopped accordingly you can do a serial reading (1 reading each 2 minutes) of ALL the ECAL temperature sensors :

  1. cd padme-dcs
  2. nohup ./mon_ecal_temp.sh > /dev/null &

and then to start the new DCS live timeplot to run :

  1. cd history
  2. nohup ./timeplot_ecal.sh > /dev/null &

The monitor and DCS are aware of these measurements changes and update the relative monitor probe page and the timeplots accordingly.

Before the DAQ restart and you restart the standard 1-sensor readout you MUST abort this procedure with :

  1. ps -ef | grep -i ecal
  2. vedere i process number di /timeplot_ecal.sh e /mon_ecal_temp.sh
  3. kill -9 <pid_1> <pid_2>
  4. go back to restart the 1-wire readout AND timeplot
