== Run plan ==
See the daily plan in [https://halldweb.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/Run_Coordination_Meetings:Spring2023 Run Coordination Meetings:Spring2023] and also the [https://halldweb.jlab.org/online/whiteboard/ counting house whiteboard]

[[Guidelines_for_Remote_Worker_Shift|Shift Worker]]

== Special instructions ==

=== Hall Delta ===

It's good practice to refer to our hall as Delta when talking to MCC, to make sure that there is no acoustic confusion between us and Hall B.

=== Screenshot tool ===

"Alt L" brings up the [[Logbook_Screenshot_Tool | screenshot tool for making E-log entries]]

=== FCAL Base lockup === 

If FCAL HV bases lose communication and stop providing high voltage, refer to https://halldweb.jlab.org/hdops/wiki/index.php/Forward_Calorimeter_Shift#FCAL_Base_lockup

=== CDC Weather alarm ===

aka Alarm on HD:coda:cdc:p_diff.
See https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/4117725
* Stop run - Acknowledge alarm and document it - Start new run 
We are temporarily using Hall B sensor for our alarm, see [https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/4117725 Alternative Barometric Pressure Measurement] 
<!--The alarm has been disabled, see logbook entries [https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/4114344 4114344], [https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/4114307 4114307]-->

=== DIRC Communication Error at Run Start ===

When starting a new run, one of the DIRC FPGA boards may lose communication resulting in a Magenta communication error in the Alarm Tree, refer to [https://halldweb.jlab.org/hdops/wiki/index.php/DIRC_Shift#DIRC_Communication_Error_at_run_start this page] for a fix.

=== After beam restoration ===

* See [[Beam_Line_Detectors_Shift#Collimator_and_Radiators]] on how to move radiators and collimator

* check the '''radiation levels''' without radiator and then with the radiator 
** see the whiteboard (bottom RHS corner of the RH board) - there are columns of values expected without and with the radiator
* '''retract the radiator'''
* '''collimator in blocking position'''
* ask MCC to do their harp scan
* our '''harp scans''': follow the instructions in [[Beam_Line_Detectors_Shift#Radiator_Harp_Scan]]

=== rootspy  === 

If you have to restart rootspy, [[Online_Monitoring_Shift#Routine_Operation]], and it crashes, you might have to restart the monitoring process, find help at [[Online_Monitoring_Shift#Starting_and_stopping_the_Monitoring_System]].

=== DAQ issues ===

Call the expert. In case they suggest that you restart the DAQ, find information at [[Data_Acquisition_Shift]].

In case the DAQ issue is '''low lifetime''': 
* In case there is time (eg beam down), call the expert so that he can track down the problem.
* Restart the DAQ, if that does not help, call the expert.

=== BTA sheet ===

* The '''BTA''' guidelines are at [[BTA_guidelines]]. <br> After loading the EPICS values, you may change the values, eg round them up or down.
** '''BANU values''' should be reflected in the PCC (or UED) value (else the aftermath doesnt work out for RC), put a comment for > 5minutes.
** '''UED:''' unplanned experiment down (hardware failure).

=== Bottom Alcohol Bubbler ===

*We are not using the bottom alcohol bubbler. It is expected that its level is "ADD" and that it is not bubbling [https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/4108449 log entry]
