Overview

The HELIOS Digital DAQ is consist of 5 main devices and 1 computing resource.

  1. The Digitizers
  2. DAQ (the data acquisition computer, located at the HELIOS experimental room, near the Digitizers)
  3. Windows ( the windows XP pc for magnet control, Bias control, Target fan control, & Laser range finder)
  4. MAC2020 (the iMac that use to do online analysis and remote control of the DAQ)
  5. MAC2017 (the iMac replace HeliosDB)
  6. Network Power Switch x 2
  7. HeliosDB (the Ubuntu pc for database and Grafana, remote to the Windows)
  8. LCRC ( the super computer cluster provided by ANL, use for data storage and other computation )

Control and Data Flow

Setup of Array-RF TAC

- can we see NIM signals from triggers out of router or master trigger? -- First likely need trigger map for energy signals, e.g., not Internal mode but (TTL or TTCL modes).

- Able to take various data inputs...RF Stop, TAC, MT A/B outputs (w/ or w/ out cfd post-processing...)

VME

Power supply polarities need to be switched to accommodate additional power of new digitizers!
