Ideas

Performance

-- Understanding the triggering better

-- Adding in the RF Timing

-- How to force data to file if rates are low

Increase system stability

-- How to govern and automatically monitor the buffers -> looking into the THROTTLE variables and setup start with finding all THROTTLE variables

/global/devel/gretTop/9-22/dgsIoc/iocBoot/iocArray/vme0X.HELIOS.cmd

load the databases, which db's hold the THROTTLE?

-- How to query the network / system to wake it up on startup -> tried to touch files but then IOC closes because files exist, also tried to ping iocX but get no response. Need to look into receiver code?

-- How to reboot things remotely

-- Triggers / TS stop updating on the GUI (but data seems to be coming in)

-- Triggers / TS stop updating from one of the VMEs?

Items for experimental setup/startup

-- How to better use the pulser

-- How to get a signal out of the digitizer for use as a scope

Data storage and processing

-- Stability and automation for disk mounting

-- understand the file writing with the gtReciever (max file size etc.)

-- How to transfer only data that is not on the mac already

-- Improved way to sum up the data runs
