This page wants to collect all known procedures to restore functionalities of all parts of the DAQ (2024-06-03)
Stop any other running instance of DAQ using same platform number.
HSD
Problem | Solution |
---|---|
HSD is not connecting/configuring | open log and search for errors |
if logs shows a too general failure | check if IOCs are running > procmgr status hsd.cnf |
IOC not started | > procmgr stopall hsd.cnf > procmgr start hsd.cnf |
IOC still not starting | > ping daq-tmo-hsd-01 if no response: reboot node via web ipmi or hard reboot on the node |
still not configuring | check ns_start and ns_gate values, modify them to: 'user': {'fex': {'gate_ns': 200, 'prescale': 0, 'start_ns': 108000, 'raw': {'gate_ns': 3000, 'prescale': 1, 'start_ns': 108000}}} These are valid values, if HSD works it means that Operator needs to find correct values for its own project Remember to set the parameters back to previous values (look in logs to find previous values ) |
check linkup | connect to drp node: find node: > grep hsd tmo.cnf > ssh X drp-srcf-cmpXXX use the command: > kcuStatus and check for linkup and frequency if no linkup, check XPMs, or check fibers and transceivers. |
when running an hsd as a single | Remember to disable the associated hsd in the hsdpva RIX: |
Piranha/Opal
Problem | Solution | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Camera is not connecting/configuring | Select Open console in ProcStat and click on the camera Another possible cause is the camera link box (black box with two LEDs) is not powered. Both LEDs should be green. The bottom one can be red upon turning on but once connected to the daq and received configuration, it will turn green. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
still not connecting/ configuring check camera directly from the node | find the node running the camera > grep #piranha# #TMO.cnf# (replace detector and cnf file with appropriate values) note node name and lane ex: "{ host: 'drp-srcf-cmp007', id:'tmo_atmpiranha_0', flags:'spu', env:epics_env, cmd:drp_cmd0+' -l 0x1 -D piranha4'}," > ssh X drp-srcf-cmpXXX | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
check file system | > ls -al (...) if command reports nothing, then file system is currupted and computer needs restarting: | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
check kcu linkup | > cat /proc/datadev_1 (Opal and Piranha do not use kcuSim or kcuStatus, only HSD and timing (To Be Verified)) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
check devGui | Stop any other running instance of DAQ using same platform number check cameralink version: > cd cameralink-gateway/software
|
XPM
Problem | Solution | ||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
no linkup | for RIX start for TMO start | ||||||||||
RxLinkReset | try by pressing button for reset | ||||||||||
need to restart XPM | on psdev > fru_deactivate (xpm crate name)
