Here are the instructions to how to start Coda with clasrun user

python SvtCodaDummy.py --local --env JLAB
1) Open a terminal on clonfarm3
> bash
> sconda    #setup conda
> crogue    #activates rogue environment
> startCodaRun    #starts Rogue Coda Run Gui
 
2) Open a terminal on clonfarm3
> bash
> sconda; crogue; startCodaDummy   #starts the dummy rogue server
 
3) Open a terminal on clonfarm3
> runcontrol -rocs
 
Then:
 
connectconfigure (hdice1_clonfarm1_clon10new to run with both cobs, hdice1_clonfarm1 to run with top cob, hdice1_clon10new to run with bottom cob) download (for both cobs use hps_v2_noThr.trg)PrestartGo

Taking a CODA run

Info

If opening the Rogue GUIs for the first time, make sure all of the FEBs are turned off. 


To take a CODA run, both the rogue server and a dummy server need to be started.   To start the rogue server, first ssh into clonfarm2 and issue the following commands

Code Block
source /usr/clas12/release/1.4.0/slac_svt_new/anaconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh
conda activate rogue_5.9.3
cd /data/hps/slac_svt/server/heavy-photon-daq/software/scripts/
python SvtCodaRun.py  --local --env JLAB --epicsEn

The dummy server runs on clonfarm3 and can be brought up as follows after ssh'ing into that machine

Code Block
source /usr/clas12/release/1.4.0/

...

Update Coda libraries

If event_builder or rogue_lite change, coda libraries need to be updates. Just run

...

slac_svt_new/anaconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh
conda activate rogue_5.9.3
cd /data/hps/slac_svt

...

/server/heavy-photon-daq/software/scripts/
python SvtCodaDummy.py  --local --env JLAB --epicsEn

At this point, the FEBs and hybrids can be brought up via the medm GUIs.


Once the hardware has been powered up, you can initialize a run in CODA using the configuration PROD77_SVT and the config file hps_v2_svtOnly_noThresh.

(minus) CODA run control should be running in a VNC on clondaq7.  If not, contact the DAQ expert.
