Introduction

bnmr and bnqr experiments use the MUSR run number scheme, whereby "Real" runs are assigned a run number in a certain range depending on the beamline. All "Test" runs have a run number selected from the test run number range (independent of beamline).

This means that the selection of the next run number is controlled by software BNMR: Perlscripts#get_next_run_number.pl, and the users are prevented from editing the run number.

Run Number Ranges

The following run number ranges have been assigned:

BNMR

40001 - 44499 inclusive

BNQR

45001 - 49999 inclusive

test

30001 - 30499 inclusive

Prevent User from editing run number

By default, the MIDAS system allows the user to edit the run number at the begin-of-run. MIDAS provides a way of preventing editing of the run number. This is implemented in the ODB of both the bnmr and bnqr experiments, e.g.

[local:bnqr:Stopped]/>ls "/experiment/Edit on start/Edit run number" 
Edit run number                 n
