Running the triplet

In order to execute the triplet:

• Acquire the usual three runs:
  ADS PRE DCH

  using the normal procedure ``ConfigDAQ-Init-WarmStart'' and setting storage on DISK. Each run will stop automatically.

  After each run, the "deadchannels" procedure is automatically started on node MONI (presently fibm04).

• From the "Monitor" menu in the operator window, click on "Merge DCH triplet", fill the ADS, PRE e DCH boxes with the correct run numbers and click "OK". The procedure waits for the completion of "deadchannels".

  A log file is created:

  /data/farm04/dc/deadchannels/merge.log

• From the "Monitor" menu in the operator window, click on "Set hotwires in database". Input the last run number shown in the window and click "OK".

  The procedure creates a logfile on:

  /data/farm04/dc/deadchannels/log/writehottodb_runnumber.log
