Details on HELIOS Digital DAQ Hardware
Below is information on the types and configurations of the hardware components used in the system. This info should be kept up to date in case of hardware failures.
Construction (To Do List)
Keep a list of things to do for construction and optimization of the the acquisition.
- Modify power supply on VME crates (x2)
- Take data with just digitizer (no trigger)
- Install cable for PC diagnostics
- Install pulse generator module
- Setup trigger boards and trigger system
- Move forward with Trigger IOC readout
- Determine data storage plan
- Determine online/offline sorting options
Input/Output Controllers (IOCs)
Seven (7) IOCs were purchased for the HELIOS acquisition. Due to an updated ethernet part on the board they required an updated board support package (BSP) from 1.2/1 -> 1.2/3. This was completed (after an additional update of VxWorks from 2.2 -> 2.2.2 (??)) by Andrew Johnson of APS. ADDITIONAL DETAILS ARE REQUIRED
One of these new IOCs has been flashed with the new BSP/VxWorks. The rest must be flashed. The flashing procedure is below.
Flashing IOC
- Ensure that JUMPER # is set to XX on the IOC you wish to flash.
- Login to the IOC you wish to flash
telnet ts <location>
where location is typically 20## from 0 - 99.
- Load the new bootrom of choice, currently (June 2015) we are using
tftpGet -d/dev/enet1 -c192.168.1.20 -s192.168.1.2 -g192.168.1.1 -fdgs2/bootrom.mv5500
- Ensure that you are flashing the memory you are not booted to by executing
flashShow
- Flash the new bootrom
flashProgram -d/dev/flash0 -o01f00100 -nfff00 -v
- Switch jumper to XXX
- Check to make sure that the new BSP is loaded (???)
Memory Size: 0x20000000. BSP version 1.2/3. <--- see this
