07.15 R24 started. BRIKEN run 33.
      76~78Ni beam setting.
      F5 C target out. F7 CH2 in. F11 C out.
      F11 plastic rate ~500cps.
      1mm Al vairable degrader removed after ~3mins. Now have 4.4mm in.
      
07.26 R24 stopped for unknown reason - fill cycle had previously happened, similar scenario to yesterday.
      Soft reset performed successfully.

07.36 R25 started.
      No changes to beam settings above. F11 plastic rate ~500cps.

Recovered AIDA after power cycle (unknown cause of crash from the end of R10)

Corresponding run in BRIKEN: 161109_0814_747576Ni_012

 

Run condition for Takechi has changed since our crash

F5 empty; F7 CH2; F11 carbon

At the beginning of our run, we had all Aluminium degraders in (1 mm was added back after our crash for safety)

We finally removed all but 1 mm Al on the variable degrader

SSD biases shown as attachments 1 and 2

Put the variable Al degraders all back in for safety (was 4.4 mm, now 5.4 mm)

Takechi team switches the condition: F5 empty; F7 CH2; F11 empty

 

7:00  Reset Run Control, run Setup, everything looks good.  Start the run

          Data rate around 10 MB/s

7:04  Checking the online data rate with MIDAS, the event rate is nearly zero...but it comes back (presume Takechi team was playing with the beam condition)

Events come back...

F11 Plastic rate is 1.2kHz

Here is a sample of the offline analysis of event rates with all Al degraders in:

TapeServer was still running, so maybe that was a mistake...?

11.10 DAQ found stopped. No storage mode so can't tell when, but presumably at 06.30 during LN2 fill cycle.
      Unable to regain control of (see errors after merger restart in attachment 1) system so power cycling FEEs.

11.15 Bias voltages @ ambient temp 25.5oC before DSSD noise investigation (attachment 2+3).

11.40 NB+DK attempting shielding of LN2 solenoid.
      Manual fill initiated. DAQ still stopped at 11.41.
      Unable to regain control of system. Power cycle FEEs while DK+NB install more shielding.

2:55 Made attempts to solve the noise issue that was plaguing DSSD1.
     Attempts at checking the cabling, making sure the detectors were light sealed and switching the bias cables
         around were unsuccessful.
     A blue cable was found to be laying across the snout of AIDA that runs as a temperature probe for one of the
         clover detectors.
     Moving this cable appears to have solved this issue (Has been locked in position). See pulser spectrum in

00.45 Run R1100 started on n-rich setting (EURICA run_1100, BigRIPS run 1165)

            Degraders as noted in previous entry

           Check clock status failed for nnaida5. ADC calib failed for nnaida8. nnaida19 failed Check ASIC clock and Check SYNC errors.

           Temps ok. Leakage currents ok.

            Settings file 2016Jun06-00.31.34

            AIDA fluctuating but all > 0.

            Tape rate ~8Mb/s.

            Merge was outputting some interesting looking messages to terminal about queue being full and timestamps going backwards (attachment 3).

            TapeServer window shows data being written as does repeated ls in /TapeData/NP1306. Writing one file every ~5-7min.

 

01.45 Merger went into 'Want next SYNC'

            AIDA SYNC rate went to zero and TapeService stopped writing data.

            Run stopped and FEEs power cycled as contact was lost with ~50%.

            Beam operators want to do some tuning so control has been given to them while we start back up.

 

02.22 Started run R1101 on n-rich setting (EURICA run_1101-1102, BigRIPS run 1168-1169)

            Increased fast disc threshold to 5 in all nnaida to prevent merger from running so fast and possibly choking.

            Stopped @ 04.20

            Realised after, nnaida24 had been on 1GeV range.

 

04.28 Started run R1102 on n-rich setting (EURICA run_1103, BigRIPS run 1170)

           Stopped as 04.37 nnaida24 in 1GeV range.

 

04.39 Started run R1103 on n-rich setting (EURICA run_1104, BigRIPS run 1170)

           Settings file 2016Jun06-04.39.22 -> same as previous settings but nnaida24 changed to 20MeV range.

           Stopped at 04.59 at request of beam operators.

 

05.11 Started run R1104 on n-rich setting (EURICA run_1105, BigRIPS run 1171)

            Merger died.

            Stopped @ 05.15.

            Ctrl-c out of all tape/merger related windows and restarted them. Setup/Configure etc.

 

05.34 Started run R1105 on n-rich setting ( EURICA run_1106, BigRIPS run 1172)

           Settings file 2016Jun06-05.34.56 -> nnaida24 reverted back to 1GeV range. New settings file to make sure nnaida24 is set to 1GeV range. Changed in Save/Restore options.

           Temps ok. Leakage currents ok.

           Rates in visual scalar ~10% higher.

 

07.22 Lost contact with nnaida4 and merger stopped outputting data.

            Stopped run R1105.

            Power cycle FEEs and start new run.

            On two power cycles, certain FEEs were not contactable.

            Beam stopped by operators for brief period.

 

08.14 Run 1106 started on n-rich setting (EURICA run_1108, BigRIPS run 1175)

            Settings file 2016Jun06-05.34.56

            Temps ok. Leakage currents ok.

             Stopped 09.06 for setting change.

 

09.41 Run 1107 started on reference mass setting (EURICA run_1200, BigRIPS run 1177)

            Settings file 2016Jun06-05.34.56

 

11:24 Network link to the outside world is dropped across B3F

             Beam is being controlled by the primary operators.

             Run 1108 - background run with beam off from 10:29 to 11:31 (EURCA run 1201, no BigRIPS run)

             (Was still editing the elog without submitting it.  Sorry!)

             Settings file was saved: 2016Jun06-10.45.31

             Leak currents from paper logbook in consecutive order bias1 ch0-3, bias2 ch0-1 in uA: 3.225, 4.155, 3.515, 3.315, 3.65, 3.205

 

12.45 start R1110 (AIDA) run_1103 (EURICA)

           Continuing reference mass measurement following earlier network outage B3F

           ASIC settings 2016Jun06-05.34.56

 

          see attachments 13-20

 

13.30 Stopped R1110 for B3F entry

           'unable to connect' to nnaida1 etc

           AIDA FEE64s reset OK but would not ReSync wuth about half of the FEE64s returning -1 status code

          power cycle FEE64s, reboot aidas1 & FEE64s
