Entry  Sat Apr 4 17:32:01 2020, Ragan, Alex, Esther, General, No beam in ESR 
The beam is coming from SIS but doesn't arrive in ESR because the quadrupole magnets in ESR have failed.

Update (18:01): Problem has been resolved. 
Entry  Sat Mar 28 11:07:49 2020, Ragan, RuiJiu, Tino, , General, Nikos is changing gas jet target 
The gas jet target is now being changed from H2 to Ar by Nikos.

Entry  Sat Mar 28 16:29:27 2020, Ragan, RuiJiu, Esther, General, Malfunction of several ESR machines 
The HKR crew informs us that several machines in ESR are showing malfunctions.
The on-call expert cannot be reached.

Alex and Pierre-Michel applied 1500 V to the anode and adjusted the threshold in Messhute.
x1 signal was small & noisy and rest of the signals were fine.

Alex goes to Messhute to check the signals from MPWC. After he completes, we start with the measurements with the primary beam )
Entry  Tue May 28 08:36:14 2019, Jan, DAQ, MBS start & RFIO server 
You need a DAQ-PC and the RIO crate computer.
All of the DAQ proceedures laid out here are operated from inside the DAQ screen session.
Right now for e121 the following DAQ-setup is used: (might change in the future)
