CDS maintenance summary: Tuesday 30th October 2018

WP7890 20bit DAC install h1susetmx

Richard, Jeff K, Dave:

The fifth 18bit DAC was replaced with a 20bit DAC card. h1iopsusex and h1susetmx models were modified accordingly. After h1susex was powered back on we noticed that h1iscex had suffered a Dolphin induced ADC-timeout problem (IOP model still running, all user models stopped). This did not apply to h1seiex. I restarted h1iscey models.

WP7826 move h1calcs model

Jeff K, Dave:

h1calcs was stopped on h1oaf0. The files: rtsystab, testpoint.par and H1.ipc were edited to change h1calcs' location from h1oaf0 to h1oaf1. Jeff made the MDL change. The model was started at its new location and mx_stream was restarted on h1oaf0 and h1oaf1. A SHMEM IPC from h1calcs to h1odcmaster no longer exists, so h1odcmaster was edited to remove this IPC receiver and restarted.

WP7891 install h1seiproc

Jeff K, Jim, Dave:

The new h1seiproc model was started for the first time on h1oaf0. Some functionality of the h1oaf model has been relocated to seiproc.

First the new, smaller h1oaf model was installed. The rtsystab file was edited to add h1seiproc, as was the DAQ master file.

h1seiproc was started for the first time. All was well except that the ISI RFM channels from EX and EY were in error.

We tried restarting all h1oaf0 models, ISI at ETMY, and h1cdsrfm but the RFM errors persisted.

We then recompiled and restarted h1isietm[x,y] and the RFM errors went away (perhaps these models had been built to get the H1.ipc file entries, but an install was missed?).

Starting the new end station ISI code precipitated a code restart sequence as IPC changes made recently as part of the consolidation work required other senders/receivers to be removed. When the dust settled we had rebuilt and restarted end station ISI, PEM and SEI-PROC multiple times. During one  h1pemey restart the h1iscey computer unexpectedly locked up. The local console was showing the log-in prompt, but the computer was unresponsive to SSH or keyboard input. I pressed the front panel RESET button to reboot it. A later h1pemey restart had no such issues.

h1lsc DAQ Loaded to negate make-install made on Friday

Dave:

After backing out Friday's h1lsc make-install and recovering the original DAQ-INI file, the GDS_TP was latched with a DAQ-modified warning. Pressing the "DAQ RELOAD" button cleared the warning.

DAQ restart

Dave:

three DAQ restarts during the course of the day for variaous reasons:

new h1seiproc

modified h1oaf, h1calcs, h1odcmaster, h1isietmx, h1isietmy, h1pemex, h1pemey models

edcu file for h1cdsrfm epics channel trending

fixed h1seiproc DQ channel list
