• ePix Notes (Dan's) 

STEP 0 (only good if you know the firmware and can program over fiber)

• Where is firmware located?
  • EPIX Repo --> /firmware/targets/Epix10ka/images
  • Have to clone the repo first...
    • https://github.com/slaclab/epix
    • Image Removed
• Check out branch that is "actively" being updated

  • Code Block
    language bash title Checking out branch
    $ cd IC_projects/epix # where I have my local git repo $ git checkout rogue_v5.14 $ git branch # make sure you see that you're in branch rogue_v5.14 $ git pull # make sure "Already up to date."

  • Image Removed

• Repo is setup, rogue version is specified, have script for programing over fiber
• Checking if MCS file is there
  • $ cd firmware/targets/Epix10ka/images/
Load the MCS file, but make sure number is same as firmware: See ePix Notes (Dan's) 
• Image Removed
• Another first time step... need to unzip
  • $ gunzip *
    • Will remove source files, but don't worry they are version controlled 
Actually loading the MCS file...

• Code Block
  language bash title Loading MCS
  $ cd ~/IC_projects/epix/software/Epix/ $ source setup_template.sh $ cd scripts/ $ python epixGen2LoadFpga.py --mcs=../../../firmware/targets/Epix10ka/images/Epix10ka-0xE2040002-20210715112919-mkwiatko-328bae7.mcs

• Don't worry abut warnings, if you get an error, find a firmware engineer to help...
