   * Start [[Software#u6pc5 (data U6)|Software applications]] (in computer u6pc5)   * Start [[Software#u6pc5 (data U6)|Software applications]] (in computer u6pc5)
  
-  * Verify that **stagearea** in u6pc5 is pointing to the right place. After typing ''ls -l ~/stagearea'' in a u6pc5 terminal, you should see: **/user/s800/stagearea -> /mnt/daqtesting/s800/exxxxx**, where xxxxx corresponds to the experiment number. If the experiment number is not right, follow the following steps: +  * Source the environment file to run the DAQ: 
-        * Create a experiment directory in **/mnt/daqtesting/s800** by typing ''mkdir exxxxx'' +        * Open a terminal in u6pc5 and type ''ssh -Y spdaq50'' 
-        * Go to the newly created experiment directory, and create subdirectories **s800built**, **rawccusb**, and **rawvmusb** +        * Type ''. /usr/opt/nscldaq/xxxx/daqsetup.bash'', where xxxx is the nscldaq version number (11.0-015 on Oct 26, 2015)
-        * Create the stagearea link by typing ''ln -s /mnt/daqtesting/s800/exxxxx stagearea''  +
-        * Run the S800 DAQ with multilogger enabled, and take some data on disk to ensure that the newly created stagearea is properly filled+
  
 +  * Verify with S800 Device Physicist that S800 DAQ has been installed and it is ready for the experiment. S800 DAQ can be installed by typing command ''goinstalldaq'' and following the script instructions (please, contact the S800 Device Physicist if you are not sure of what you're doing).
  
-  * Make sure that scaler directory has the right experiment number: 
-        * In a u6pc5 terminal, go to **/user/s800/operations/daq/scalers/exxxxx**, where xxxxx corresponds to the experiment number. 
-        * If there is no directory for the current experiment, create one 
-        * Run scalers in **/user/s800/operations/daq/scalers/exxxxx** by typing ''goscalers'' 
  
 +  * Verify that **stagearea** in u6pc5 is pointing to the right place. After typing ''ls -l ~/stagearea'' in a u6pc5 terminal, you should see: **/user/s800/stagearea -> /mnt/events/operations/s800/exxxxx**, where xxxxx corresponds to the experiment number. If the experiment number is not right, contact S800 Device Physicist.
 +
 +  * Set S800 DAQ in [[s800 daq tools#Running in Slave mode with multilogger |Slave mode and enable multilogger]] to record S800 data in the s800 stagearea.
 + 
 +  * Check [[s800 daq tools#scaler display|scalers]] while running S800 DAQ

 +===== At the end of the experiment =====
 +  * Verify with S800 Device Physicist that S800 DAQ software is uninstalled. This can be done by typing script ''gouninstalldaq'' (please, contact Device Physicist if you are not sure of what you're doing)
 +
 +  * Unbias detectors, CRDC interface boards, CRDCs gate, etc
 +
 +  * [[Gas handling system|Remove gas]] from CRDCs and Ion Chamber
