Update on High Voltage Control

Hussein: I discussed the HV GUI's with Nerses and Vanik, and they gave me a brief description of how to control the channels. The below photos are snapshots of the actual interface.

The following is a part of the Nerses's email suggesting a naming scheme for the TOF:

"TOF:hv:PLAIN:PADDLE:PADDLE_SIDE:status or TOF:hv:PLAIN:DETECTOR_SIDE:CHANNEL:status or TOF:hv:DETECTOR_SIDE:CHANNEL:status

Where PLAIN could be {1,2} or {F,B} (i.e. Forward, Backward) or {U,D} (i.e. Upstream, Downstream) PADDLE could be [1-22] PADDLE_SIDE [1-2] or it could be {N,S,U,D} (i.e. North South Up Down) or {N,S,T,B} (i.e. North South Top Bottom) or {L,R,T,B} (i.e. Left Right Top Bottom) DETECTOR_SIDE could be {1,2,3,4} or it could be {N,S,U,D} (i.e. North South Up Down) or {N,S,T,B} (i.e. North South Top Bottom) or {L,R,T,B} (i.e. Left Right Top Bottom) The channel, I guess, would be just number in the range 1-44"

Discussion

We discussed some of the design choices:

  • Having green always labeled "off" and red always labeled "on", the convention being, look at the color to determine status, read at the label to determine click action. We discussed whether this was an obvious convention.
  • Having only two states indicated: green meaning "finished ramping up" and red meaning other, i. e., ramping up, ramping down, tripped, or finished ramping down. We discussed whether these other states could be indicated since they are reported by the hardware.
