Power On COB board
installed the COB board, COB-41, to the 4th slot of this crate.
install ethernet cable
reading the small screen and the LEDs to figure out the status
if the LED is green, looks like everything working as expected.
If the LED is red, something is wrong, see below:
It's a little bit complicated to get the DTM and DPMs IP right, need to manually do step by step
- login to rddev111
- ping dtm with cmd: ping cob_dtm.
- if failed to ping the cob_dtm, could power cycle the COB
- open this switch , and the LED will turn to blue
- close this switch, and the LED will turn off in a few second, and waiting for ~3 mins, try to ping cob_dtm again
- open this switch , and the LED will turn to blue
- if failed to ping the cob_dtm, could power cycle the COB
- ping dpms with cmd: ping cob_dpmX (X could be 2,3,4,5,6,7,8)
- for our setup, the cob_dpm7 is for the DPM0_rce0; cob_dpm8 is for the DPM0_rce2; the cob_dpm5 is for the DPM1_rce0; cob_dpm6 is for the DPM1_rce2; the cob_dpm3 is for the DPM3_rce0; cob_dpm4 is for the DPM3_rce2;
- if failed to ping the dpmX, need to restart it manually
- login to rddev111
- setup RCE SDK with cmd: source /opt/rce/setup.sh
- manually restart rce with Cmd: cob_rce_reset [/slot[/bay[/rce]]]
- you can get help by: cob_rce_reset --help
- for our setup, the slot number is 4; if I want to restart the cob_dpm7, for example, it is the DPM0_rce0, the the bay number is 0, and rce number is 0. So, the full Cmd is "cob_rce_reset atlas-sm/4/0/0"
- waiting about 3 mins for RCE to reboot
you can also login dtm at first, them minicom to the dpm rce, with cmd: minicom bayX.Y (X is the bay number, Y is the rce number)
RCE RCE IP-name reboot cmd minicom name DPM3/RCE0 cob_dpm3 cob_rce_reset atlas-sm/4/3/0 minicom bay3.0 DPM3/RCE2 cob_dpm4 cob_rce_reset atlas-sm/4/3/2 minicom bay3.2 DPM1/RCE0 cob_dpm5 cob_rce_reset atlas-sm/4/1/0 minicom bay1.0 DPM1/RCE2 cob_dpm6 cob_rce_reset atlas-sm/4/1/2 minicom bay1.2 DPM0/RCE0 cob_dpm7 cob_rce_reset atlas-sm/4/0/0 minicom bay0.0 DPM0/RCE2 cob_dpm8 cob_rce_reset atlas-sm/4/0/2 minicom bay0.2
