Shift Checklist Help
- The How-to page is extremely helpful. Use Firefox's "Page search" to help find what you are looking for.
- There is also an older Shift Checklist help file, which may help to locate items. (But it is a stale document.) Below is an updated table.
| What | Where to find it | How to do it |
|---|---|---|
| DATE (day-month-year) | As given by Run Control | Enter as DD-MM-YY |
| Time (24-hour clock) | As given by Run Control | Write the time into the cell |
| Your Name | As given by your parents | Write legibly |
| Beam Conditions from Overview Screen, DAQ, MEDMs, and Scalers | ||
| Beam Energy (MeV) | This summary screen should already be displayed on the wall. If not, do
jmenu → Operations → WallMenu |
Write down the Hall C beam energy |
| Beam Current (uA) | Same as above | MPS and Hall C BCM readings should be similar. Record the
reading |
| Beam position lock on? | Use jmenu and search for 'lock.' Then choose 'Orbit Locks Normal View
and look for 'HallCOrb.' It should be in green and show 'Running.' |
Write 'yes' or 'no' in the cell |
| Beam energy lock on? | Use jmenu and search for 'lock.' Then choose 'Energy Locks.' | Write down the three colors: one for '0R, 1A, 2A.' (They should all be green. This indicates 'yes.') |
| IPM3H07, 8, and 9 BPM positions nominal? | See the summary screen. | Record the displayed beam position. Compare it with the nominal position posted on the
white board or sticky note. |
| DAQ Quantities | ||
| HMS Trigger Rate | On the CODA GUI Screen, next to the appropriate prescaler value (ps1 through ps6). | Record the typical instantaneous rate |
| SHMS Trigger Rate | On the CODA GUI Screen, next to the appropriate prescaler value (ps1 through ps6). | Record the typical instantaneous rate |
| HMS Dead Time | On the CODA GUI Screen, under the "computer live time" tab. | Calculate and record the average value |
| SHMS Dead Time | On the CODA GUI Screen, under the "computer live time" tab. | Calculate and record the average value |
