How to run the DAQ for the BNL-Nevis integration test¶
1. Make sure the Nevis crate and NIM bin are powered. Experts: (on-site) Davio Cianci, (off-site) José I. Crespo (Skype: josei.ca)
2. ssh into the DAQ machine
Log into the SBND gateway (or you can create an FNAL VPN connection)
ssh -Y sbnd-daq00.fnal.gov
Log into the LArIAT gateway
ssh -Y lariat-gateway01.fnal.gov
Log into the DAQ server using the common sbnd account (reserved for DAQ)
ssh -Y sbnd@lariat-daq04
3. Go to the jcrespo/ directory
cd jcrespo
Run the DAQ-decoder-plotter script
./run_and_plot_sbnddaq.sh
and follow the instructions printed on screen. This script runs the DAQ in calibration mode (CALIB pulses are sent to the Magic Blue Box every 1 s) -- once you have collected the desired number of events, it requires you to stop the DAQ using CTRL + C twice --, then runs the binary decoder, and finally runs a ROOT analysis to plot the waveforms.
