TODO List prior to Mustang going to UPenn

TODO List post first commissioning run

  • DONE 2nd stage pulse tube or Array G0 temperature needs to be cleared.
  • DONE Change Save/Load Config file error level (changed to NOTICE) and set the default directory to /home/gbt/etc/config/mustang_config
  • DONE If HE3OUT and cycletype is NONE, modify the code to prevent disabling scans. Also, add a message with HE3OUT is executed.
  • DONE Add an informational message that a Det Bias Curve is being collected. Turned off debug output.
  • DONE Calculate scan start time and scan length to get end time and throw out any packets with t > end time in the FITS writing code.
  • DONE Reduce the quantity/frequency of config and stream header error announcements.
  • DONE Add a CLEO message if 2 stage PT temperature exceeds 30K.
  • Evaluate parsing & FITS performance by changing Settle, NSamp and LSync. Change nstep from 8 to 31.
  • Heisenbug: Brian/Simon thought they observed that over many 10s scans, some FITS files do not get written.
  • Heisenbug: Take Det Bias Curve, switch back to default scan, parsing stops.
  • Use TaskMaster.
  • Create environment script.
  • Turn DAQ OFF, ON, then do conform to touch crate parameters.
  • Validate COF files.
  • 2nd commissioning run. cryoabort cycle -> DAQ Power OFF. CLEO reflect DAQ power? Autoprepare issue. Control -> Feedback. Try Feedback only parameter? Same thing for Tower Power.

  • NOTE: newstartup.py is located at /users/bmason/mustangPub/ygor
