Digital Gammasphere Shift Notes

This section provides a walkthrough of a typical 8-hour shift using DGS. The main workspace looks like this:

DGS main workspace

General Things to Watch

  • Run Control box in DGS Main Controller (top right) must show "Start; Save; Sort" during a run. Otherwise, data is not being recorded.
  • TCP/IP rates (center grey boxes) should be changing, and Buffs Avail should be <400 when data is being written to disk.
  • VME 01-11 (left white boxes) show values that change in MDIG(n) and SDIG(n) fields. These are Timestamps that should be very close in value when digitizers are all Locked.
