Field Mapping System Diagram
Running the Field Logger Software
1. Use remote desktop to log onto halld2 using account 'JLAB\halldusers', ask Elliott for password
rdesktop halld2 -g 1800x1000
2. Double click the shortcut Field_Logger on the desktop to run the LabVIEW application
Files
The files are stored on the halld-online group disk here:
/group/halld-online/Solenoid_Mapping
Which should also be accessible from the "M:" drive
The file names are formatted to contain the date, start time, phi value, and radius. For example, the following file was:
- created on May 1st, 2013 at 11:39am
- the strut was positioned such that the tube positions were along φ=90o
- tube was at R=0 (i.e. along the center of the magnet).

The columns of a data file are: radius(inch), phi(deg), Z(cm), Incline(deg), B_x(Gauss), B_y(Gauss), B_z(Gauss) and B_axial(Gauss). And the X,Y,Z direction are defined as
- X: points to the beam left
- Y: points vertically up
- Z: points to beam dump
