Set-up

RCE calibGui

CalibGui is the software used to perform tunes, run scans and test devices.

Before running a scan

Once GUI is open…

• In "Scan" tab
  • Set directory to save root files by clicking "Browse" button adjacent to "Data Dir" in "Global Module Configuration area", e.g. /afs/phas.gla.ac.uk/data/atlas/upgrade01/rce-tests/
  • Select Scan Type of scan from drop down list in "Scan Config" area
  • If required choose a Prim list by "Load Primlist" button in Prim List area
    • NB prim lists have priority over any selected scan. Also, prim lists must be cleared before loading a new list or running single scan.

• In "Config Halfstave" tab (4 provided, choose whichever is appropriate)
  • Choose a "Frontend: are and set parameters for communication with chip
  • Select config file from "Choose Config", and browse to file, e.g. /afs/phas.gla.ac.uk/data/atlas/upgrade01/rce-tests/KateRCE/THRESHOLDX/config
    • NB check references to masked directories in config file are to correct place (i.e. current directories)
    • for valid config rations the "Valid" check will be ticked
  • Set inlink/outlink to valid parameters, and correct RCE (see map ADD LINK LATER)
  • make sure the "Included" check is ticked, else the communication will not be attempted

• In "Plots" tab
  • The output of them most recent scan is viewable in GUI *Usual root rules apply
