Difference between version 28 and version 22:
Line 131 was replaced by line 131
- 1) Make a text file, e.g. ">kate test01.job &"
+ 1) Make a text file, e.g. ">kate test01.job &". (Extension can also be test01.tcl)
Line 139 was replaced by line 139
- 4) In a sics client write : "do test01.job"
+ 4) In a sics client write : "do test01.job" or "exe test01.tcl"
At line 176 added 3 lines.
+ To synchronize the instrument parameter execute the command sync

+
+ !!Lambda/2 mode
+
+ To use Lambda /2 neutrons without changing A2 just divide the monochromator d-spacing by a factor of 2, i.e. go from 3.354 A to 1.677 A
+
+ > tasub mono dd 1.677
+
+ > tasub update
+
+
+ Next drive Ei and Ef to 4 times the initial energy.
+ For example for 5 meV = 4.04 A drive Ei and Ef to 20 meV =2.02 A
+
+ Note, that the primary instrument, i.e. the monochromator will not move. The analyzer however will move, so make sure that any field from a magnet is set to zero.
+
+
+ To go back to 5 meV
+
+ > tasub mono dd 3.354
+
+ > tasub update

- Repositioning of unencoded RISOE motors (all other motors) can be done by the command
-
- motorname putpos value, e.g. oma putpos 74.17

+ !! Disabling and enabling motors
+
+ For all the motors from the DeltaTau controllers, to enable them in SIX you just type, for example
+
+ sgu enable 1
+
+ and to inhibit them, type e.g.
+
+ sgu enable 0
+
+ To list which (of the DeltaTau) motors are enabled or inhibited, just type
+
+ enable
+
+
+ To disable or enable the sample table, i.e. the morors tu,tl,sgu and sgl you can use the commands disabletable and enabletable
+
+ To disbale or enable the slits use disbaleslits or enableslits.
+ You have to disable the motors, before you physically disconnect them, i,e. when removing the sample table or the slits in case of cryomagnet operation.
+
+
+ If you enable or inhibit the motor manually using the hardware switch, it may take up to 30 seconds for SIX to update this parameter and to realise what you've done.
+
+ ML has also stopped SIX from automatically enabling all the motors when SIX is started.
+
+ -----
+
+ !!Filters
+
+ Be and BeO after the sample and before the analyzer tank filters can be moved in and out of the beam by the following commands:
+
+ bef in
+
+ bef out
+
+ The rotation of the filters is controlled by the command brot.

- !!Switching to TASCOM (hopefully not needed)
-
-
- If you want to switch to TASCOM, stop the Sicsserver
-
- monit stop all
-
- monit quit
-
- Log into rita2 as user tascom and enter your password [*********]
-
- startserial (starts necessary portserver)
-
- startecs (starts tecs for temperature control)
-
-
- If you want to switch back to SICS quit tascom and
-
- kill the portserver
-
- Look for process Serportserv, notice its PID and execute:
-
- kill -9 PID
