aLIGO EPICs log (conlog)

The aLIGO EPICS log (conlog) for the 40m is 'working' at: http://192.168.113.209/conlog/conlog.php

The process is running inside a screen on megatron.

To start it running, you need to set your environment, and then run the startup.c1conlog script :

cd /cvs/cds/rtcds/caltech/c1/target/conlog/conlogepics
source conlog_environment.txt
./startup.c1conlog

This will leave you at an epics prompt, which means the code is running. (that's why I left it running in a screen for now).

To change the list of channels when the conlog is running, you need to edit the file (s):

/ligo/caltech/data/conlog/c1/add_channel_names

/ligo/caltech/data/conlog/c1/remove_channel_names

Then start up medm as follows:

cd ~/ryan/

medm -x -macro "IFO=C1" medm/CONLOG.adl

Then click the Add channel list button or Remove channel list button.

To change the channels before running the conlog from a blank database, you would edit: /ligo/caltech/data/conlog/c1/use_channel_names (I believe this should be read whenever the conlog is restarted, but I'm only sure it does the first time you start conlog).
