SHIFTER INSTRUCTIONS: for the time being, since the MVD is not in the Big Partition, the MVD experts (IhnJea Choi, Hubert van Hecke) will do these calibrations.

These scripts are derived from the scripts on this page.

Short version: Make sure the MVD is not in the Big Partition, then plug in the pulser trigger cable (red label 'MVD pulser trigger') into the MVD GTM module (rack PRR 3.5, top crate, slot 10, top spigot, labeled 'MVD') Log in as phnxrc on phoncsc Do a feed.pl --> MVD --> complete Do ts iocondev4b to keep an eye on rc cd to /home/phnxrc/mvd/calib/ typing calib_phenix.pl brings up this gui: - - - - - - - - - - --> click on the MVD ped/amu button watch the action on the terminal screen till it finishes total time: about 7 minutes click on the MVD thresholds button watch the action on the terminal screen till it finishes total time: about 5 minutes In the iocondev4b window, do <CTRL>] and quit to close it Go unplug the trigger cable from the GTM

Much of what follows is for experts
