Setup on detector-PC

Setup RAMdisk

• get Imdisk from https://sourceforge.net/projects/imdisk-toolkit/
• Install it
• Configure ramdisk

finished it should look like this (mounted drive T:):

Get hidra

• login
• use frozen HiDRA version

• download HiDRA from http://nims.desy.de/extra/hidra/freeze/windows/

• unzip HiDRA into D:

Configure

• adjust hidra config file, e.g for beamline p00

  conf/datamanager_p00.conf

  general:
      log_name: datamanager_p00_{date}.log
      procname: hidra_p00
  
  eventdetector:
      watchdog_events:
          monitored_dir: "T:"
          fix_subdirs: &fix_subdirs
              - "commissioning/raw"
              - "commissioning/scratch_bl"
              - "current/raw"
              - "current/scratch_bl"
              - "local"
          create_fix_subdirs: True
  
  datafetcher:
      use_data_stream: True
      data_stream_targets: [["asap3-p00", 50100]]
      remove_data: True

  You may think on changing permissions of datamanager_p00.conf to read-only
  Alternatively (for version > 4.0:

  remove_data: stop_on_error

  or

  remove_data: with_confirmation

• configure whitelist

  whitelist: ...

Run

• create startup script (e.g. for p00):

D:\hidra\datamanager.exe --config_file D:\hidra\conf\datamanager_p00.yaml --verbose --onscreen debug

Remark

For DESY staff: A collection of beamline specific config files can be found here
