Here is a short introduction on how to run the Run Control for standard data taking. The following instructions assume that the e-logbook and the environmental monitoring are already running and - more important - the 28 V power supply which powers the CU is on.
Launch Run Control
Run Control comes in two different flavours, depending on the type of Run, and is launched by a double click on the proper icon on the Desktop of lat-btserver:
- Run Control: this the most common choice and it is intended to be used for runs in which the CU and the Ancillary Systems run syncronized and the data are merged online by Run Control itself.
- Run Control No Synch: this should be used when the CU is run standalone.
Note that the sequence of operations for starting (and stopping) a run is, to many respects, different in the two cases, so that one should always make sure what's the configuration he's running with before starting a run.
