DCT Teststand GUI

How to  start the GUIs
Log into any machine,Execute "/nfs/bbr-srv02/dataflow/0F/16/app/teststand/TeststandGUI", or copy the script file TeststandGUI  to any directory you like and run it, you will get main window.

 How to  connect a ROM with the GUI
  Now, I recommend you use  newgui subwindow which is fully functional and can work with any board.  Inside the main GUI, click   menubutton mode->newwin, or manual->Xyplex-> newwin,  newgui  window will pop up.

Between connect and  disconnect button, enter the unix command to connect to the desired ROM, and then click on the connect button, you should get the connection. If  you simly see "Trying 134.79.131.132..." in the green inspector window for a long time,  maybe ROM is in use.  See Practical tips for ROM XYPLEX usage  and get some help.

What UNIX commands used to connect a ROM
For GLT-lab master-crate : telnet roc32 3000 or xyplex roc32
For GLT-lab platform 15 (zpd ROM) : telnet roc32 3200

How to talk  a ROM

 Before doing the following operation, you  need to first select the board you wan to talk by clicking  the checkbutton. The number above these checkbutton only show you which slot you have select or unselect right now.

  •  Memory R/W  : for single read and write  and block read and write
 Before writing  and reading, you need to define word length -- 16/32 bits, reader  and writer, block address , memeory address and input data. By default, word length is 16 bits , and reader and writer is one word. 
For block write or read, you also  need to define the number of word, input and output file. ALso,for the block read and write, you only can put your input and output file in directory   /nfs/bbr-nfs03/detector/trg/..., so ROM can access this directory by NFS system, and ROM take this directory as /detector/trg/... without  /nfs/bbr-nfs03.
  • Diagnostic Memory

     Click radiobutton, you can  update the CSR status to what you want.
