sPHENIX discussion of the superconducting solenoid

["Yip, Kin" <kinyip AT bnl.gov>]

Hi,

 

Thanks Patrick a lot for the instructions !  In addition to the UAC,  I’ve needed to “enable” a few settings in “ActiveX” in IE (under “Internet Options”/Security) before I could install the InduSoft VM (add-on) in IE.    Otherwise, after clicking “install”, that “install” button would keep

coming up after clicking again and again …

 

Everybody can follow Pat’s instructions [ behind C-AD firewall (if not already); change UAC; use IE/probably enable some ActiveX settings and

install when prompted ].

 

I attach the first page that I see “home.jpg”.  I guess probably only “D650 sPHENIX SOLENOID TEST” is relevant for us.  The others seem to be

for ERL ?...

 

The “sPHENIX Magnet.jpg” shows the temperatures /pressure etc. for the Cryo system !   Interesting …  Almost all temperatures are all about

~290 to ~300 K at the moment …

 

The Cryo folks are checking out the things that were not working and trying to make them to get us to cool down as soon as possible.   By the

end of today, Roberto has promised to send us a message about the status and prediction.

 

Kin

Yes, it’ll be downloaded/installed the first time that you visit the server.

Hi,

 

Thanks for the instruction.   Do I need to get somewhere to install the “virtual machine”  or  it’ll be downloaded/installed at the first time that

I try to use IE to view http://130.199.104.195/web/cryo.html  ??

Hi Kin,

 

If you wish to view sPhenix cryo control screens, you’ll need to allow the installation of a lightweight virtual machine from Indusoft Corporation.

 

ITD’s domain security requirements require a small workaround of the UAC (User Account Control) to allow installation of this vm.

 

Following these 4 steps in W7 to override... (you only have to do this the first time you connect)

 

1)  Type UAC in the desktop search bar.  Click on the resulting link that will open the UAC Settings dialog.

 

 

2)  Slide the control from its default Always Notify  to Never notify,  as shown below.

 

 

 

3)  Reboot your machine for the change to take effect.

 

4)  Connect to the ERL/sPhenix server at:  http://130.199.104.195/web/cryo.html  you must use Internet Explorer for its Active X support (not Chrome, Firefox, Edge, etc.). 

 

Remember that your computer must be behind the C-AD firewall or use VPN to tunnel through.

 

When you connect to the server and the logon dialog box appears, use “guest” (without quotes) for USERNAME and leave the password field empty.  This will give you read-only access.
