Requirements:
- Seat at TOFp Station in STAR Control Room.
- Password Information (posted at TOF Station in STAR Control Room).
|
|
Procedure:
- Sit down in front of the Control PC at the TOFp Station in the STAR Control Room.
- Open a terminal window and make an ssh connection to
tofpdaq.star.bnl.gov (130.199.88.46). The username is
tofp and the password is posted at the TOF Station
in the Control Room.
- If you see the warning "This is a mini-System: please
CHECK FILE SYSTEM and REBOOT!" just above the "login:" prompt,
then follow the DAQ PC Reboot After Crash Procedure
first. This involves a reboot, so you will have to wait a few minutes for
the DAQ PC to come back up. Once it does, repeat step 2 to log into
the DAQ PC again.
- You can now start up the main TOFp DAQ program. At the UNIX prompt in the window
connected to tofpdaq.star.bnl.gov, enter the command:
tofpdaq start
- The DAQ program is now running. Minimize this window.
- Contact TOFp Control to inform them about
this action.
- Note the action in the Shift Log Book.
