-======= This is DAQ page for the 2015 campaign ​======+======= FRIB online build window ====== 
 +Issue the following command prior to starting the ReadoutGUI: export COINCIDENCE_TICKS=300 
 +(e.g. in bin/​startrdo) 
 + 
 +======= Turn on/off Mode3 Data collection ====== 
 +  * To start/stop mode3 data collection on the EPICS GUI page click the button Cluster. In the newly opened window click the button **2 only** for mode2 data only or the **2 and 3** for both mode2 and mode3 data. 
 +  * Alternatively in a terminal on a2.gam run the command **"​caput Data_CS_Save2And3 0/1"** to turn mode3 collection off/on. 
 +  * After doing this the decomp scripts should be modified as running the syncrofix command could overwrite this.  
 +  * For GRETINA standalone the script to modify is is **grdecompSA.sh** and for GRETINA-S800,​ **grdecompParticleGamma.sh**. 
 +  * For both scripts change the line **"​caput Data_CS_Save2And3 0/1"** to turn mode3 collection off/on 
 +  
 +======= New in 2022 ====== 
 +start run window is obsolete. Two scripts are available for changing the data directory. Daq needs to be stopped, directories need to exist:  
 +  * changeDataDir_maintainRunNum ​ <data dir> ​ : keeps the Run number the same, for when we need to move physics experiment data collection to another disk 
 +  * changeDataDir_resetRunNum <data dir> ​ : finds the lowest available Run number without any larger RunDir #s 
 +

 +  * S800 is losing events. Check the network speed of spdaq32 by /​sbin/​ethtool eth0 and /​sbin/​ethtool eth1 , both should show speed as 1000Mb/s, if one shows 100Mb/s then the network is too slow and S800 cannot send data to GEB fast enough which will cause event loss happen.
 +  * Check the ringbuffer status, $DAQBIN/​ringbuffer status - -host=spdaq32 - -all , if the free colum becomes zero, DAQ related people needs to be notified for diagnostics.
