Tracker Install Documentation¶

Hopefully this page will serve as a tree, which details can be hung off.. I will try to keep this filled in with documentations..

Computing (DAQ, Configuration, Calibration)¶

Controls: miceiocpctk¶

• This computer runs the trackerioc, and has a fraction of "james legacy code". The configuration code is located in the mice epics repositories. At present there is only the epicsDev version present:
  

  /home/epics/epicsDev/

• The central "deposit" for tracker information, code fragments, analysis scripts, configurations, etc.. is:
  

  /home/epics/tracker

  This information is backed up to the MLCR backup system (see: [[online:MICENETBackups]]) and is shared with other tracker applications via nfs. If re-making the machine, restore this folder, and export, by adding the following to /etc/exports:
  

  /home/epics/tracker miceacq16.micenet.rl.ac.uk(rw)
  /home/epics/tracker miceacq17.micenet.rl.ac.uk(rw)
  

  Then enabled with:
  

  /etc/init.d/nfs start
  chkconfig nfs on 

TrackerIOC:¶

Legacy code (soon to be deprecated). These programs can be found in:¶

/home/epics/epicsDev/Software/bin/

To configure stuff:

1. Launch the "AFEIItServerInterfaceUI", Load configuration file, Hit Initialise, then Play button.
2. Launch the "AFEIItConfigurationUI", Load configuration file, Hit Initialise, then Configure All (this takes 10mins - things look like they crashed, they did not, have faith).
