Tracking Upgrade Review Material

Under:


The TUP Review is scheduled for Dec. 7th, 2006, and will consist of material from the HFT, IST and HPD groups. The draft charge for the review will be similar to the HFT review charge, archived here: Tracking Review Committee Charge.

Expert Operation

Under:
The high voltage control program has two configuration files that need to be created prior to the utilization of the program. Those files are:
  1. default.ini

    This is the basic configuration file. In this file there is information about the high voltage database file, which box and CW-Base need to be turned on, serial line settings and other configuration stuff. This file do not need to be edited by hand. There is a special window in the high voltage program that can be used to modify this file.

There are a few commands for expert operation. They are:

  1. Led Ampl. entry box

    This Configures the LED pulser amplitude. Enter the value and press [Set] to set it for all the tower crates

Overview

This program is designed to control the high voltage of  towers PMT's (Photo Multiplier Tubes). Each tube has an independent high voltage settings. Each PMT is connect to a CW-Base that controls the high voltage for the base. The CW-Base connects to a personal computer running Windows through a RS-485 serial line. The personal computer runs a LabView program that communicates to all CW-Bases in the system to set and monitor the high voltage on each PMT.
