FELOCX is the server that runs the control software for the FELIX optical cavity.

FELOCX

[edit | edit source]

This machine drives the FELIX optical cavity system. The installation of the standard Windows 11 and LabView2011 has been done according to Installation_instructions_for_FELIX_LabView_Servers.

Software for the Optical Cavity

[edit | edit source]

The software for the Optical Cavity can be found at \\felixdisk\felix1\FFsoftware\OC_felix\OX_oc_felix_development\OC_LabVIEW_2011\OX_oc_felix\builds\Optical Cavity Systems\ This whole folder needs to be copied to the C:\ disk.

The Agilent software needs to be installed and can be found at \\felixdisk\felix1\FFsoftware\OC_felix\OX_oc_felix_development\OC_LabVIEW_2011\OX_oc_felix\OC and OX_LV2011\Agilent\N1231_windows7_8_10\Agilent_KeySight Interferometer N1231B\N1231-13612\. The license is there as well. Install the x64 version. Also, from the /Drivers folder, install the drivers for the card. This can be done from device manager -> device -> update driver -> point to the driver folder.

Load configuration

[edit | edit source]

There is a file (TODO: which? where?) containing the NI MAX configuration for all the pxi cards.

  • Import the configuration file
  • Check the names of the two relay cards:
    • SW1 has serial 0x12541F9
    • SW2 has serial 0x194A6CB
  • For each of the NI Motion cards:
    • TODO: put here the serial numbers of the cards, and write down the name of each set with that serial number!!!!
    • load the correspondingly named Configuration Set
    • Initialize the card

Further configuration information:

PXI-7340 -> (Board ID 3) -> Motor card 3 -> Device serial number 126722A
PXI-7344 -> (Board ID 2) -> Motor card 2 -> Device serial number 1149004
PXI-7344 -> (Board ID 1) -> Motor card 1 -> Device serial number 1148FFC
PXI-2566 "OX_SW1" -> Device serial number (0x)12541F9
PXI-2566 "OX_SW2" -> Device serial number (0x)194A6CB

When everything works and is functional, create a "service" in FireDaemon to have the subsystem start automatically.
