fiber mapping is currently the same as for 4x quads

The current DAQ configuration is that the four epix10kaQuads are hosted by daq-mec-pgp02, and are running the epix10kaquad software.

Normally, the epix100a cameras are hosted by daq-mec-cam01 and running the epix100a software.

Path forward: 

Update on Fiber Mapping: (see 7.11 Opal Camera Configuration for fiber patch panel information)

  • Commenting out epix100a_2_XRTS and setting "-i 2" for epix100a_3_Kalpha worked (but keeping -P 0x40) worked, and I checked via image inspection that I saw two different detectors.
  • The epix100a persisted all day across nearly complete fiber changes - so the DAQ config is the issue (and the IOC was ok).
  • In detail: Dimitri and I got into the fiber routing behind the Quad connections in PR60 since we suspect cable problems coming into cam01. So now cam01 has both the direct fiber bundle and the Fiberstore QSFP-SR4-40G that was in one of the two pgp02 ports. We don't need the quads again until late Feb, so can sort this out post L10011
  • Comment out all epix10kaQuads in mec.cnf
  • Change host to daq-mec-pgp02 for the epix100a in mec.cnf.
  • Change host to daq-mec-pgp02 for ioc-mec-epix-{01-04} in iocmanager.cfg.
