4 | 1 | William Badgett | MCenter Control Room (MC-CR) x3726 or x8871 |
5 | 117 | Jennifer Raaf | * Call the Main Control Room (x3721) at the start and at the end of shift. This is required, and pleasant. |
6 | 69 | Jason St. John | * If the beam goes away for more than a few spills, look for Accelerator Alarms in ACNET (a default window). If the problem persists a few minutes, and you see nothing about it in the MCR elog, (or you just really want to find out more), call the MCR. They're friendly, though they may be super-busy. |

45 | 1 | William Badgett | |
46 | 152 | Jason St. John | Any time day or night, please call experts if you are in need of help and the answer is not provided below. |
47 | 152 | Jason St. John | |
48 | 179 | Jason St. John | h2. *Trouble getting started* |
49 | 152 | Jason St. John | |
50 | 146 | Jason St. John | * If you cannot ssh to FTBFLX machines: Get a kerberos ticket for yourself: @kinit <yourKerberosPrincipal>@, then ssh ftbf_user@ftbflx01 (or whichever machine...). |
51 | 1 | William Badgett | * If your Kerberos username and password are good, but you can't log on to FTBFLX[NN] machines: Have someone who CAN log into those machines heck that your kerberos principal appears in @~ftbf_user/.k5login@ in the LArIAT section. |

53 | 152 | Jason St. John | h2. *Trigger and DAQ system* |
54 | 152 | Jason St. John | |
55 | 188 | Jason St. John | When the DAQ crashes, please post the relevant information to [[DAQerrors]] for experts to study. |
56 | 188 | Jason St. John | |
57 | 187 | Jason St. John | h3. Common failures: |
58 | 187 | Jason St. John | |
59 | 187 | Jason St. John | * DAQ fails with @ERROR: ReadRegisgter ACQUISITION_STATUS CAEN_DGTZ_CommError BoardId 0@ wait 2 minutes, then try to start again. |
60 | 187 | Jason St. John | ** Try issuing the command @lariatReset 0 1@ waiting more then 5 seconds, and trying again. |
61 | 187 | Jason St. John | This command is appropriate when one sees any type of "CAEN_DGTZ" error. This command will NOT help the persistent ports error. |
62 | 187 | Jason St. John | * DAQ fails with @Found persistent communication port still open@ |
63 | 187 | Jason St. John | ** Wait 8 minutes for the ports to clear, then try again. |
64 | 187 | Jason St. John | |
65 | 187 | Jason St. John | h3. Other failures: |
66 | 187 | Jason St. John | |
67 | 1 | William Badgett | * If the DAQ is having trouble talking to the crates, try issuing the command @lariatReset 0 1@ waiting more then 5 seconds, and trying again. |
68 | 187 | Jason St. John | This command is appropriate when one sees any type of "CAEN_DGTZ" error. This command will NOT help the persistent ports error. |
69 | 187 | Jason St. John | * If the trigger crate has been power cycled and the V1495 is not emitting triggers: [[Reset1495]] |
70 | 83 | Jason St. John | |
71 | 152 | Jason St. John | h2. *Wire Chambers* |
72 | 152 | Jason St. John | |
73 | 162 | Jason St. John | * If the wire chambers are acting strangely: "remote power cycling instructions":https://redmine.fnal.gov/redmine/projects/lariat-online/wiki/Communicating_with_the_wire_chambers including mini-DAQ and telnet interface. |
74 | 135 | Jason St. John | * If the wire chamber system is skipping spill numbers, it may be a high trigger rate (> 30 k per spill). The wire chamber controller may still be reading out the hits from the last spill. |
75 | 83 | Jason St. John | |
76 | 172 | Jason St. John | h2. Power Cycle the ASICs (TPC Wire Noise) |
77 | 168 | William Badgett | |
78 | 168 | William Badgett | * Anecdotal evidence has shown that analog noise on the TPC wire readout channels can be |
79 | 169 | William Badgett | alleviated by power cycling the TPC electronics: ASICs and Warm Receiver/Drivers |
80 | 172 | Jason St. John | * You can remotely power cycle the TPC electronics via the web site http://lariat-pdu02.fnal.gov |
81 | 173 | William Badgett | logging in as user "ftbf". Choose the *CYCLE* option, which will automatically give a 60 |
82 | 173 | William Badgett | second powerless interlude. |
83 | 173 | William Badgett | * Further important informations can be found on the white board in MC-CR. |
84 | 168 | William Badgett | * This mechanism is controlled by a smart power distribution unit (PDU) located under the |
85 | 168 | William Badgett | TPC electronics power supply near the cryostat in the enclosure. Due to electrical safety |
86 | 170 | William Badgett | rules you must *NOT* use any of the other outlets on this PDU. Do *NOT* remove the protective |
87 | 168 | William Badgett | outlet covers at any time. |

90 | 181 | Jason St. John | h2. Recover from a LAr level interlock |
91 | 181 | Jason St. John | |
92 | 182 | Jason St. John | Assuming the LAr Level dropped low enough to trip off the TPC Cathode power supply, and maybe you even powered down the PMTs. |
93 | 182 | Jason St. John | |
94 | 181 | Jason St. John | # Be sure HV is set to zero for these: Cathode Drift, Wire Bias, cryo-PMTs |
95 | 183 | Sarah Lockwitz | How to control the [[Drift HV]] |
96 | 181 | Jason St. John | # Power down the ASICs. (They should be off when TPC voltages change.) |
