404	Thu Oct 27 10:57:49 2016	TD	AIDA data readout
Developing real-time AIDA data synchronisation test using MIDASsort To illustrate AIDA readout, ADC and discriminator data from a pulser event is plotted as a function of the 100MHz AIDA internal timestamp (1us/channel) Attachment 1 - nnaida8 number of ADC and discriminator data items Attachment 2 - nnaida1-24 number of ADC and discriminator data items Attachment 3 - 4*(FEE64 module # - 1) + ASIC # (ADC channels 0-95, disc channels 100-195) versus timestamp (1us/channel) The spectra clearly illustrate - 500kHz ADC readout cycle - discriminator readout precedes ADC readout by ~18us (this figure will be shaping time dependent) - after-pulse due to pulser injection via simple charge terminator (no pole zero correction) ~84us after start of ADC readout (this figure will be pulser decay time and shaping time dependent) Note events were identified (delimited) by time periods > 2us between successive ADC data items

418	Thu Nov 3 02:29:45 2016	TD	[How To] Startup AIDA (October 2016)
Assumes 3-phase ac power (to Julabo FL11006 recirculating chiller) and single-phase ac power (to AIDA NIM bins, PSUs, network switches, USB-controlled ac mains relay and Raspberry Pi) is connected and switched on. All AIDA operations are controlled from the Dell T410 Workstation aidas1 using web browsers. AIDA has multiple, independent data acquisition servers connected by an Ethernet network. Response times to commands, information updates etc are ~10-60s - please be patient! 1) Start Julabo FL11006 Recirculating Chiller See manual (page 19) http://www2.ph.ed.ac.uk/~td/AIDA/Information/Julabo%20FL11006.pdf Set point +20 deg C Check flow of coolant by inspecting the two flow indicators which are located on top of the AIDA stand Do NOT proceed if the Julabo FL11006 Recirculating Chiller is not operating, or if there is little, or no, flow in one, or both, flow indicators. 2) Start interface to USB-controlled ac mains relay to AIDA data acquisition servers On the AIDA Dell T410 Workstation aidas1 switch to Desktop 7 and start a Firefox web browser Enter URL http://nnrpi1:8015/AIDA/Rly16/ See attachment 1 Select 'Sequence ALL On' to powerup the AIDA data acquisition servers Check all relays Relay 1 to Relay 8 move from the 'Switch ON' to 'Switch OFF' row See attachment 2 Wait 10 minutes (yes - really!) before proceeding 3) Start Httpd Data Acquisition server See attachment 3 Switch to Desktop 1 and select the yellow MIDAS icon 'Httpd for DataAcquisition' which will start a terminal to display server messages as follows System identified is CPU x86_64; Platform is unix; OS is Linux and Version is 2.6.32-504.8.1.el6.x86_64 Environment selected is CPU x64_64; Platform unix; OS Linux64 and Operating System Linux64 MIDASBASE = /MIDAS@aidas and MIDAS_LIBRARY = /MIDAS@aidas/TclHttpd/Linux64 PATH = /MIDAS@aidas/bin_Linux64:/MIDAS@aidas/TclHttpd/Linux64:/homes/npg/root/bin:/homes/npg/root/bin:/homes/npg/root/lib:/MIDAS/Linux/bin64:/usr/lib64/qt-3.3/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin package limit is not available: can't find package limit Running with default file descriptor limit package setuid is not available: can't find package setuid Could not change to user 50 group 50: not owner /debug user "debug" password "jhi+u8jzdbpl" httpd started on port 8015 Custom startup from /MIDAS@aidas/config/TclHttpd/aidas1@8015/startup.tcl DefineMessage defined with server at http://elog.ph.ed.ac.uk:8015/MessageLoggerServer /DataBaseAccessServer /NetVarService /SigTaskService Loaded MemSasAccess /SpectrumService loading tcl/AIDARunControl.tcl for namespace :: RunControlClient provided RunControlClient loaded Completed custom startup from /MIDAS@aidas/TclHttpd/Html/AIDA/RunControl/stats.defn.tcl See attachment 4 4) Start web browser for interface to AIDA Switch to Desktop 1 and start Firefox web browser Enter URL localhost:8015 See attachment 5 5) Commence startup of AIDA interface Select 'AIDA Experiment Control' See attachment 6 6) From AIDA Experiment Control tab Select 'AIDA Hardware Control' See attachment 7 Select 'Data Acquisition Run Control' 7) Reset and setup all data acquisition servers From 'Data Acquisition Run Control' tab See attachment 8 Select 'Act On ALL Data Acquisition Servers' The web page will update (~20s) to show the status of all of the configured AIDA FEE64 data acquisition servers which are named nnaida1, nnaida2 ... etc See attachment 9 Select 'Reset' Wait for update and check that the state of all data acquisition servers is 'reset' Select 'Setup' Wait for timestamp re-synchronisation pop-up See attachments 10-11 Usually all data acquisition servers (nnaida1, nnaida2 ... etc) will ReSYNC OK and you may proceed to step 8. Sometimes one, or more, data acquisition servers report ReSYNC not complete. Re-select the 'AIDA Experiment Control' tab and select 'AIDA Hardware Control' See attachments 12-13 From the 'AIDA Hardware Control' tab select 'Master Timestamp Control' From the 'Master Timestamp Control' tab Select 'Reload' Select FEE64 -> nnaida6 Select 'Perform ReSYNC' Wait for timestamp re-synchronisation pop-up. All data acquisition servers 9Nnaida1, nnaoida2 .. etc) should ReSYNC OK - if they do not please seek expert help 8) Start ASIC controls Re-select the 'AIDA Experiment Control' tab and select 'AIDA Hardware Control' See attachments 12-13 Select 'ASIC Control' See attachment 14 From 'ASIC Control' tab select 'Act on ALL FEE64 modules' and await page update select 'Act on ALL ASICs' and await page update See attachment 15 9) Check FEE64 operating temperatures Re-select the 'AIDA Hardware Control' tab and select 'FEE Temperatures' See attachment 16 Check temperatures Virtex < 70 deg C PSU < 45 deg C ASIC < 70 deg C Note that the ASIC temperatures for some data acquisition servers sometimes read back as 0.0 If the temperature values above are exceeded switch off AIDA FEE64 electrical power as follows Desktop 6 - Firefox web browser From 'Rly16 Control' select 'Switch ALL off' and now seek expert help 10) Perform system-wide diagnostic checks Re-select the 'AIDA Hardware Control' tab and select 'System Wide Checks' See attachments 17-18 11) Start servers for data merging and output to disk Switch to Desktop 2 and start the 'Httpd for Merge/TapeServer', 'Merger' and 'TapeServer' servers by selecting the three adjacent MIDAS in sequence See attachment 19 Three terminal sessions will pop-up to display server messages. These terminals should be moved to left of the desktop and arranged as shown See attachment 20 This will enable you to simultaneously observe the latest messages from each server and the activity spinners of the Merger and TapeServer servers 12) Start web interface to Merger and TapeServer Start Firefox web browser Enter URL localhost:8115 See attachment 21 13) Open data file Select 'Tape Service' See attachment 22 In the 'TapeServer Service' tab complete the Volume Name, Run Name and Run Number fields. Typically the volume name will the experiment ID (e.g. NP1234) and Run Name (R). See attachment 23 Select 'Go' See attachment 24 This will create an experiment directory if it does not already exist (e.g. /TapeData/NP1234) and will open a data file within this directory with a filename concatenating the Run Name and Run Number fields - if the selected file already exists a new filename (Run Number) will be suggested 14) Setup merger Re-select the 'AIDA' tab and select 'MERGE Control' See attachment 25 Select 'Setup & Configure' See attachment 26 Select 'Go' See attachment 27 Select 'Toggle Merge Program Pause State' See attachment 28 15) Enable histogramming and data transfer #1 links Switch to Desktop 1 and re-select 'Data Acquisition Run Control' tab Select Histogramming 'Enable All' and Data Transfer #1 'Enable All' 16) AIDA is now ready to commence collecting data - you can proceed from step 5 of https://elog.ph.ed.ac.uk/AIDA/412
