Beckhoff. Daniel and Dave
Following Daniel's changes to the Beckhoff systems, I applied the latest INI files to the DAQ and restarted the DAQ. Unfortunately h1ecatx1 needed a restart shortly after this and we have some channels disconnected. I also copied the latest Beckhoff REQ files into the appropriate target areas and Patrick reconfigured the conlog using them.
Conlog: Patrick and Dave
I modified the script which creates the conlog channel list to use the generic include.txt file as well as the generated fe_include.txt and grd_include.txt. I changed the script which generates the Guardian autoBurt.req file (which is used to create grd_include.txt) to include the USERMSG byte encode strings for conlog logging. I created a script to convert the output of USERMSG to a string. Patrick reconfigured conlog's channel list.
Guardian: Dave
I checked that the running guardian nodes and the GUARD_OVERVIEW medm screen are in sync with each other (they are). I updated the guardian autoBurt.req file (using guardctrl list to get the node listing).
Filtermodules Load Status: Dave
Many H1 models are running with partial loaded filter files. Plus two models (SUSPR3 and SUSMC2) had modified filter files. I pressed the "LOAD COEFFICIENTS" button on the GDS_TP screen for the following models to resync them with their filter files:
ISIHAM[3,4,5,6], ISIETMX, SUS[PRM,PR2,SR2,SRM,BS,ETMY,ETMX,PR3,MC2], TCSCS, LSC, LSCAUX, OMC, ASC, ASCIMC, ISC[EX,EY]. No problems were encountered.
inicheck of all DAQ INI files: Dave
I ran inicheck on all the DAQ INI files, we have channels with mixed case on the systems: ISI[BS,ITMX,ITMY,ETMX,ETMY] and LSC.
foton check on filter files: Jim and Dave
We ran foton -c on a copy of all the running filterfiles. Most of the errors we saw relate to obsolete filters left in the body of the file but no longer in the MODULES header. At some point we should make the effort to clean up the filter files of obsolete material (quak generated files exempted from a foton cleanup).
