OBSOLETE. Documentation is currently under development.

In order to run the combined S800 + Gretina daq, the following steps need to be taken:

1. On spdaq48 in /user/s800/operations/daq/usb/TclXXUSB do:

wish ./RunControl.tcl

or, on devop2 (the S800 MAC machine)

click on the operations folder on the lower icon bar and select runcontrol.command

2. On a dataU machine logged in as the experimental account (e11007 for the June 2012 testing period) do

godaq

3. On spdaq44 do:

/usr/opt/daq/10.1/bin/ringbuffer status. The output should look similar to:

Upon start of run there will be another client of the s800 ring, which is the pushToGEB process. This should die on end run.

The S800 daq will now be in slave mode, and run control is done from the NSCL daq window.
