| === ODB Keys in the Automatic Headers subtree ===
| |
| | |
| The Automatic Headers subtree can be found at ODB path {{Odbpath|path=/Equipment/FIFO_acq/mdarc/camp}}. It contains the [[#Automatic CAMP variables]] for logging. Also see [[#Automatic CAMP variables|above]] for access to this directory via alias-link, and an example.
| |
| | |
| The ODB Keys found in this directory are explained below.

| This key in the [[#ODB Keys in the Automatic Headers subtree|Automatic headers subtree]] contains the name of the MVME host running CAMP. See examples at [[#CAMP Hostname]]. If the CAMP hostname is NOT blank, the CAMP host must be booted up and available for use.
| |
| | |
| The CAMP host is "pinged" before attempting access, to try to avoid a complete hangup of [[mdarc]] if the CAMP host is powered down. If the CAMP host is not responding or logging is turned off, the run start may fail, or a warning message will be displayed each time a file is saved.

Introduction
The software package CAMP is used for the slow controls for the bnmr and bnqr experiments.
The CAMP server runs on a MVME162 located in the VME crate. The name of the MVME162 is
The CAMP system itself is accessed using the CAMP User Interface (CUI).
Using the CUI, the user can add instruments to be accessed by the DAQ system during the experiment.
CAMP Hostname
The CAMP Hostname is
- bnmrvw for the bnmr experiment or
- polvw for bnqr experiment
The CAMP hostname is set in two places in the DAQ system :
- 1. environment variable CAMP_HOST
[bnmr@isdaq01 ~]$ printenv CAMP_HOST
bnmrvw.triumf.ca
- 2. in the ODB
[local:bnmr:Stopped]/>ls "/Equipment/FIFO_acq/mdarc/camp/camp hostname"
camp hostname bnmrvw.triumf.ca
CAMP User Interface
To access the CUI, in an xterm type "camp".
[bnmr@isdaq01 ~]camp
A display similar to Figure 1 will appear.
Figure 1 Example of CAMP User Interface
The camp command will use the default camp hostname (bnmrvw in Figure 1). The camp hostname is contained in the environment variable CAMP_HOST,
defined at login (in
~/.cshrc). The camp hostname is also defined in the ODB at path /Equipment/FIFO_acq/mdarc/camp/camp hostname for the use of the DAQ system. The name should be the same as CAMP_HOST.
To access the Camp User Interface using a different camp host, specify the camp hostname, e.g.
[bnmr@isdaq01 ~]camp -node polvw
CAMP in BNMR/BNQR
The CAMP system is used for two purposes in the BNMR/BNQR experiments:
CAMP Logging
Logging of CAMP data to the saved file is handled differently for
- Type 1 (I-MUSR) runs
- Type 2 (TD-MUSR) runs
In both cases, #Automatic CAMP variables are saved.
Automatic CAMP variables
Automatic CAMP variables are listed in ODB at path /Equipment/FIFO_acq/mdarc/camp/ and can be easily accessed by clicking on the alias link "AutoHeaders" in the section "Review Run Parameters" on the Custom Status Page (Figure 1). This will result in a page displayed similar to Figure 2.
The user enters the required CAMP path for "temperature variable" and "field variable", or blank if not used. The CAMP paths must be written exactly as they appear in the
#CAMP User Interface. Automatic CAMP variables, if defined, are saved for both Type 1 and Type 2 experimental modes.
For an explanation of the purpose of each key, see Keys in /Equipment/FIFO_acq/mdarc/camp subtree.
Type 1 (I-MUSR)
#Automatic CAMP variables, if defined, are logged automatically. Other CAMP variables to be logged in a Type 1 (I-MUSR) experiment must be listed in the ODB tree /Equipment/Camp/Settings. This directory can be easily accessed by clicking on the alias link "Camp Logging" in the section "Review Run Parameters" on the Custom Status Page (Figure 1). In fact this link only shows the keys in this ODB subdirectory most relevent to the user. The complete subtree with explanation of each key is shown #here.
Type 2 (TD-MUSR)
In this case, the CAMP variables to be logged are
