As of June 12, 2021, do the following on mfx-daq:

1. Go to OM directory:
   cd ~/OM-GUI
2. Create the experiment directory by copying from one already present:
   cp -r mfxYYYY19 mfxXXXX19
3. Go to the OM workspace where you can edit OM parameters, run OM, its GUI, ...: 
   cd mfxYYYY19/om_workspace
   1. Edit the parameters in monitor.yaml:
      
      • point to the experiment calibration directory by editing psana_calibration_directory under data_retrieval_layer
      • to adjust the geometry, edit geometry_file under crystallography
      • for hit finding, edit e.g. adc_threshold under peakfinder8_peak_detection
      • to change the mask, edit bad_pixel_map_filename under peakfinder8_peak_detection
   2. Launch OM (preferably in screen mode so others can have access to it):
      1. (optional) Open a screen session: 
         screen -xr
      2. run OM: 
         ./run_om.sh
      3. (optional) Detach from the screen session:
         Ctrl-A Ctrl-D
   3. Launch the GUI: 
      ./run_gui.sh
   4. Launch the parameter tweaking GUI: 
      ./run_parameter_tweaker.sh
(it will allow you to play with the parameters, but remember to enter them yourself in monitor.yaml if you want them to be applied)
