  • The vacuum chamber upstream of the ANASEN main chamber is used to mount beam tuning diagnostics; a silicon detector and a phosphor screen.
  • The silicon and the phosphor screen are mounted next to each other on a manual drive.

Connecting the camera

  • The little ribbon cables are a little tricky. They have to be inserted in a particular orientation. The best way to see is just to look at where the metal pins are on the cable and line that up to the contacts.
  • The LED mounted next to the camera takes 5V (lemo connection)
  • There is a micro-HDMI on the raspberry pi. Use the ethernet port to talk to the pi.
  • Connect the Raspberry Pi directly to monitor, mouse and keyboard.

Login

  • The raspberry pi is running raspberry pi OS (previously Raspbian) and is based on debian linux
  • To connect to the pi remotely (provided it is registered on the network and connected to the ethernet), open a shell and ssh into it:

ssh -Y pi@anasen01.triumf.ca

  • Or login directly when monitor, mouse and keyboard are attached to the pi
  • Ask Annika or Martin for password
  • Open a terminal
  • To run the camera.py script do:

raspivid -t 0

  • You can change zoom settings in the python script
