Preparing for a RIX PV Scan
As a general rule, one should always verify that the DAQ is running well in "normal" mode before attempting to run a scan.
Some specific tips:
- Make sure all the detectors to be used are configured properly.
- Make sure the timing system is configured properly. As of this writing, RIX uses readout groups 2 and 5.
- When you're ready to record a scan, don't forget to enable recording before running bluesky_rix.py! In the control GUI, the disk icon is green when recording.
- Use the "normal" DAQ interface to select the detectors of interest as "active" and assign their readout groups.
- Put the DAQ in ALLOCATED or CONNECTED state. Now, you are ready to run bluesky_rix.py.
The bluesky_rix.py script accepts several command line arguments. If you are relying on the default settings, make sure they are correct for your experiment now, not just way back in 2020 when the script was first written.
