TBTS Operation

* Logging and conditioning server (CERN internal only, requires AFS access!)

* Control room operator console (cwe-2008-tbts, cwo-2008-ctf7)

  • CTF3 operator interface (menu): ccm CTF3OP
    • Test menu
      • TBTS Conditioning: conditioning and data acquisition software
        (/user/ctf3op/tbts/bin/ctf-tbts-server-gui)
      • TBTS Utilities: menu with links to all utilities
        (/user/ctf3op/tbts/bin/menu.tcl)
  • TBTS related utilities and scripts
    /user/ctf3op/tbts
    • /user/ctf3op/tbts/bin/: contains shell scripts to start utilities
      • menu.tcl: menu with links to all utilities
    • /user/ctf3op/tbts/labview: LabView VI's
    • /user/ctf3op/tbts/matlab: Matlab scripts
  • CTF3 related MatLab scripts
    /ctf/data/ctfmod/MatLab
    • /ctf/data/ctfmod/MatLab/JavaCoInterface: Java based accelerator control interface (FESA)
    • /ctf/data/ctfmod/MatLab/Utils: utilities to set BPM cursor timing and interval
    • /ctf/data/ctfmod/MatLab/Califes: Califes scripts
    • /ctf/data/ctfmod/MatLab/TBTS: TBTS scripts (obsolete!)
    • /ctf/data/ctfmod/MatLab/common: common definitions (beam line elements)

* Accelerator knobs:

  • TBTS drive beam knobs, EDMS 965587.
  • TBTS probe beam knobs, EDMS 997499.

* Beam position monitoring (BPMs):

  • Gain and calibration settings:
    • CCM menu Trajectory
    • BPM Calibration TL2/CLEX
    • Connect and check
    • verify settings and press SET or SAVE
  • Timing signals:
    • CX.SMEAS-BPMC: Drive beam BPMs
    • CX.SMEAS-BPMP: Probe beam BPMs
  • Cursor setting by Matlab scripts:
    • /user/ctf3op/tbts/matlab/califes/setCalifesBpmCursor.m set probe beam cursor
    • /ctf/data/ctfmod/MatLab/Utils/SetSectionCursorAndInterval.m set drive beam cursor
    • /ctf/data/ctfmod/MatLab/Utils/SetBPMCursorAndInterval.m set individual BPM cursor
      Usage: SetBPMCursorAndInterval('CA','BPM0530',400,10)

* Faraday cups (FCU):

  • CA.FCU 0712: moves in/out by operation of CAS.MTV 0830 screen in/out

* RF and other measurements (OASIS):

  • Trigger timing of Acqiris and VD80 ADCs:
    • CX.SMEAS-TBTS = CX.SMEAS-TBTSD || CX.SMEAS-TBTSP
      Enable either TBTSD (drive beam frequency) or TBTSP (probe beam frequency).
    • Individual setting by OASIS scope
    • CX.SMEAS-RFMT is obsolete!
