1. X-Ray PHA Data Acquisition - Lynx Tool (Ch. Veth) -
● start Lynx Tool (lynx.exe) under
● Shot synchronized DAQ
● Lynx C++ software using
Canberra toolkit routines for
Lynx control & data transfer
● Lynx data (ascii, 40 spectra (default)
temporarily saved (default) in
c:\lynxpha
● rawfiles manually copied into afs
at end of the day:
/afs/ipp/u/phaspo/pha/rawfiles
● file names:
Lynx_<shot-nr>_MSSdata_acq.txt
● add additional parameters from aug_pha_parm.txt
and store data in /afs/augd/rawfiles/PHB
(manually by idl tool)
