README

All code is in:

~/analysis/crystal_char

Open up a terminal and cd to that directory

cd ~/analysis/crystal_char

Very soon we will have temperature monitoring. when it’s ready, you’ll do:

python auto_process.py —temp

to enable temp logging while ORCA is taking data for this crystal.

For each crystal, record the serial number (“SNXXXXX”).

Take 10 runs (5 position, 5 voltage), and enter run numbers and serial number into runDB.json:

atom runDB.json

Then do:

python auto_process.py -p [SN]

This creates a folder called [SN] in runDB[“built_path”] (make sure you know what I mean by that!)

run the Calibration code:

cd ~/analysis/crystal_char/calibration
./Calibration [path to built directory with SN] [option - pos, volt]

For the plots that have to be manually saved, save them to the built directory that you just created, i.e. runDB[“built_path”] + [SN]

Verify that the files in the built directory are what you expect. (cd to that directory and look!)

Run the sync to cenpa-rocks and remove both the raw and built files from this machine:

cd ~/analysis/crystal_char
python auto_process.py -s

for help w/ auto_process, or any other code:

1. actually look at the code! atom ~/analysis/crystal_char/auto_process.py
2. check help: python auto_process.py -h
3. google it
4. ask clint

changing the code

if you make changes to any software: GOOD! we want your input. but you have to git commit them so that we can track what you’ve done. this can be done via command line:

git pull
git add .
git commit -m “very brief message describing my changes”
git push

Ideally, every time runDB.json is updated, you should commit. for now, Clint will probably just do this once a week.*
