I tried to compare the IP_POS time series with the IPANG and MC_TRANS but was foiled at first:
1) The IPANG scan rate was set to 0.5 second, so it doesn't resolve the pendulum motions well. Fixed in the .db file.
2) Someone had used a Windows/DOS editor to edit the .db file and it was filled with "^M" characters. I have removed them all using this command: tr -d "\r" <ETMXaux.db > new.db
3) The MC_TRANS P/Y channels were on the MC Lock screen but had never been added to the DAQ. Remember, if there's a useful readback on an EPICS screen. its not necessarily in the frames unless you add it to the C0EDCU file. I have done that now and restarted the fb daqd. Channels now exist.
4) Changed the PREC of the IPPOS channels to 3 from 2.
5) changed the sign for the IBQPD (aka IPANG) so that bigger signal is positive on the EPICS screen. |
