In order to collect XAS data using the 7-element detector through either the webXAS or xmapGUI programs, the Linux computer (s043lx1) must first connect to the Xspress3 detector electronics server and start the EPICS IOC there.
- Open a Terminal window on the Linux Machine. In the upper left hand corner pull down menu, select System Tools → Terminal
- In the terminal window, type
ssh -Y xspress3@192.168.43.7
- At the password prompt, type
x5pr3553
- Once logged into the server, type the following command:
screen
xspress3-ioc.sh
- To exit the screen shell session, type "Ctrl+a+d", that is, press Ctrl, a, and d buttons all together
Type
logout
- Close the terminal window
At this point, you should be able to run either the web Ge program inside webXAS, or run xmapGUI, and see spectra. If that does not work, close all Firefox windows or xmapGUI application windows, following the instructions to Restart ICS and reopen the application.
