Using MPS Config Page

Dan has made a helpful tool to assist in setting the correct bits in MPS. From the FRIB Launch page click on MPS Config in the MPS section to open it. This tool has been known to burn operators is the past, only use it if you know it works and if it has been updated to reflect present MPS configuration changes. or here.

To use it,

Click on the desired power for the chosen destination.

Decide whether to use a saved cavity config or not (see below for more).

Verify that anything shown in Additional Requirements has been configured (this is not handled by the tool).

Make sure the correct stripper is selected.

If everything looks correct click the Set MPS Configuration button to apply it.

Cavity Config

When a mode requires watching cavities, the tool will normally enable watching all cavities in the relevant sections. In some cases not all cavities are being used, so to aid in only watching the needed cavities you can use the Cavity Config options.

To toggle whether MPS is watching any specific cavity, do the following:

Open the MPS Operator page

(Scroll down until you see the following:

{{:task:mps_cav_config.png?400|}}
*Click ''OFF'' or ''ON'' to either start or stop watching cavities in the corresponding section
OR
*Scroll to find any specific cavities
*Click both buttons corresponding to any cavities you'd like to toggle until they're either on or off, as shown:

Don't forget to cycle MPS to update!

Shane Notes

* I'd add here something about AP not wanting to watch cavities during PDT or something, also instructions on where to find it, also also instructions to double check the paper MPS config guide and the MTCA's should be on regardless
