Some misc. notes from Do Young Noh's (DYN) experiment time - March 14--21, 2006

  • DYN JJ slits should work with bipolar and microstepper drives but found only fully reliable behavior with bipolar drives (SPD-6B's)

  • Use microns as slit units as don't have enough resolution in spec otherwise with mm units

  • Did not save all motor settings for the DYN JJ slits, but recall the following:
    (1/2 step mode)
    48 steps/rev,
    gap/aperture = 39.024 microns/revolution
    center = 15.485 microns/revolution

  • ti4 table had to be lowered by approx. 5 mm

  • Used Newport crossed x-z stage (that we use for Lois Pollack) to support addition beam mask at end of flight path

Password for the root and sandy accounts is the usual I user account password


Quote:

  • An Axis 241Q video server has been placed on our network. Currently, its IP address is 164.54.116.175 and its host name cymophane (though I have not figured out how to access it via its host name).

  • There is a link to the video server from the 'Local' section of our web page. Alternatively, use this link: http://164.54.116.175/view/index.shtml

  • The manual for installation and the user guide are attached below.

  • Some salient points are as follows:
    (1) Basically you just access the web site listed above to connect to the video server
    (2) A connection via IE provides additional functionality provided you connect with adminsitrator rights (the first time anyway) so that you can install the MPEG-4 decoder
    (3) The MPEG-4 stream uses less bandwidth than the Motion JPEG but does require the decoder
    (4) From a Windows PC and MPEG-4, you can save images and zoom the display to full screen

  • root and sandy are adminstrator login names. The password is available locally

Moncohromator encoder on gonio2 does not update with moves


Problem was that gonio2 drive channel has was changed - from 8 -> 5 but the accompanying encoder cable plugged into the back of the StepPak was not moved. Once the encoder cable was moved, the encoder updated as expected.

Mapped I optical table after rough x-ray beam alignment was completed at end of 2006-1. Mapped positions shown in word doc. Then did coarse reposition of the optical table and returned via motorized stages to mapped positions. Optical table potentiometers after this return to mapped position was complete are shown in the powerpoint slide.

  55   Wed May 24 17:35:24 2006 Alec8-ID-EPSTemporary control of the 8-ID-G valve - Valve 11
The EPS HMI interface is not currently connected to the Valve 11 (8-ID-G) vacuum valve open and close signals. A temporary fix is to open and close this valve via EPICS (the EPS will still close this valve if necessary, it is only the HMI interface that is not working). To open and close Valve 11, do the following

1) From the HMI, Valve Control screen, Enable EPICS Valve Control

2) Use 'probe' and "Adjust"
to set the PV 8ida:V2001_4 to On (Open) and 8ida:V2001_5 to Off (Closed) ---- To open the valve
and the opposite for closing the valve
  64   Thu Jun 8 11:34:56 2006 Alec8-ID-ISetupsI monochromator mono beam height change with angle/energy
As the monochromatic energy selected by the new I mono is changed, the beam moves vertically by a small but not insignificant amount.

The vertical offset versus monochromator Bragg angle is given by:
deltaZ = Crystal Gap * 2 * cos(theta_Bragg) = 3.1 * 2 * cos(theta_Bragg) using the current best estimate of the gap = 3.1 mm

So to calculate the vertical change between 2 energies, just take the difference between calculations at the 2 different Bragg angles. Incidentally, the I mono Bragg angle can be retrieved from the soft motor monoth = 8idi:sm32
