- Make sure there is no CODA component left running. This can be cleanly done by typing $KILL_CODA_SCRIPT from any terminal on the compton computer (ccomptl1)
- Make sure that the 'AFECS Platform' and Codamaster are not left running, if you find it running, close that too.
- From a fresh terminal on ccomptl1 (logged in as cdaq) type in codamaster (and hit return)
- A window will open for run-configuration selection. Select 'standard' (and hit ok)
- The codamaster screen will open up. All the components of CODA are to be started from here.
- Open the components in the given order waiting for few seconds after opening every component
- AFECS Platform
- ET System
- Event Builder
- Event Rrecorder
- Run control (this may take 10's of seconds to open)
- Click on Sessions and select 'compton_ccomptl1'
- Click on Control and select Connect (and wait for it to complete)
- Click on Configure (and wait for it to complete)
- Click on Download (and wait for it to complete)
- Click on Prestart (and wait for the 'GO' button to become green)
- Click on Go (this will start the run)
- There is a pink-screen that appears on 'Prestart', after hitting 'GO' you can fill it up appropriately.
If you have had to start CODA from scratch on Compton, please make sure that you make an hclog entry about the same mentioning the run during which it crashed and putting the email of the Compton-on-call in the email of the entry.
If the above steps went right, then on the run control GUI, you should see
- Expid should be compton
- Session should be compton_ccomptl1
- Configuration should be standard
