SPEC TDC h1. SPEC TDC

The SPEC TDC card is mounted on a FMC card in the bach of sbnd-daq24.fnal.gov

See the FMC TDC User's Manual for details on gettin/compiling TDC software and testing
( ~sbnddaq/Documents/fmc-tdc.pdf )

a) get the TDC sotware from the CERN ohwr.org repository

git clone git://ohwr.org/fmc-projects/fmc-tdc/fmc-tdc-sw.git
   cd fmc-tdc-sw
   git submodule update --init    (to get all dependencies, ZIO and fmc-bus )

a1) download the gateware binary files from the latest release

http://www.ohwr.org/projects/fmc-tdc-1ns-5cha-gw/wiki/Spec_tdc_release_7_0

wr_spec_tdc_17012017_rc2.bin

NOTE: unfortunately this file DID NOT WORK
so we contacted the CERN experts and they sent us the latest gateware file

~~rw-r--r-~~ 1 torretta sbnd 1486616 Mar 8 09:15 wr_spec_tdc_08032017.bin

AND THIS IS THE ONE THAT NEEDS TO BE LOADED INTO THE KERNEL

2) this   .bin file needs to be copied to /lib/firmware/fmc

~~bash-4.2$ ls -l /lib/firmware/fmc\ total 7340\ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 28 Feb 21 12:20 spec-fmc-tdc.bin -> wr_spec_tdc_17012017_rc2.bin\ -rw-r--r-~~ 1 root root 1484404 Feb 20 15:27 spec-init.bin

~~rw-r--r-~~ 1 root root 1485788 Jan 11 12:51 wr_spec_tdc_release_6_0.bin
-bash-4.2$

b) compile/make TDC code
cd ~fmc-tdc-sw
ksu
make prereq_install
make install

c) load kernels

ksu
   modprobe spec
   modprobe -v fmc-tdc gateware=fmc/wr_spec_tdc_08032017.bin

d) dmesg (to check that there are no errors):

NOW WE CAN TRY RUNNING SOME SIMPLE CODE provided in the ~fmc-tdc/sw/tools directory

e) cd ~fmc-tdc-sw/tools

TO INITIALIZE THE CONNECTION TO THE WR YOu need to run the ~fm-tdc-sw/spec-sw/spec-vusrt.sh code

d) run the spec-vuart.sh code

need to find out the WR-Periph-UART and its offset :
