TIP: Use IP addresses, MIDAS sometimes spams re-connections, and using hostnames with rapid DNS lookups stresses out the CERN IT people.

Overview:
  • The CAEN DAQ runs on issdaqpc
  • The ISS array and tape-server run on issdaqpc2

Screen sessions on issdaqpc:
  • EXEC -- the control and readout process, /MIDAS/Linux/startup/EXEC, this is a script where the DataSink is selected.
  • HTTPD -- the browser GUI, /MIDAS/Linux/startup/HTTPD
  • rates -- channel rates, $HOME/scripts/rates_caen.py

Screen sessions on issdaqpc2:
  • Tape -- TapeServer
  • HTTPD -- browser GUI
  • Some others for the ISS array, please fill in!

"CAEN from scratch", read the official TWIKI:
  • Make sure the screen sessions and processes are running.
  • Go to issdaqpc:8015
  • Restore hardware settings
  • Make sure the issdaqpc2 TapeServer is running
  • Go on the TapeServer
  • Go on the Caen DAQ
  • Don't do anything while running, best to stop the DAQ to change anything!

v1725 config for Heimtime:
  • See attached PNG's, v1725_ht_N.png.
  • Heimtime goes as NIM to the right-most/second module in channel 10 (starting counting at 0).
