  1. Period Run CoordinatorShift Guide Updated on 26.03.2010 PRC Guide

  2. Before your period starts • you are registered at CERN, have access rights to the ACR (and cafeteria), and wear a CERN cell phone • you have sufficient overlap with previous PRC • get familiar with the experiment and its systems • grasp the style of the (short) daily meeting • learn about book-keeping (minutes, runs, etc) • attend a 14:00 LPC meeting in CCC • you get keys for PRC office • you decide if you wish to be ‘coffee coordinator’ well in advance • if you are too tired, ask the RC for a break PRC Guide

  3. Get use to… • detector subsystems and their coordinators • DCS, DSS, handshakes, alarms, RP veto, SLIMOS duties, access formalities (access issues are TC matters!) • ECS: runs, partitions, locks • Accumulated data, beam intensities, etc • CTP: configuration, trigger clusters, trigger classes • Filling schemes, machine jargon (see list of LHC acronyms on RC website) • communication with CCC • communication with RC, SL, SRC, and shifters PRC Guide

  4. How are you embedded in RC ALICE RC CCC PRC Piquets SL ECS/DAQ DCS HLT DQM Offline SRC SRC SRC SRC PRC Guide

  5. Tasks I • attend the daily LPC meeting in 874-1-011(CCC) at 08:30 (working days) and 09:00 (weekend)  report to SR • collect information from and inform SRC • chair the daily RC meeting at 17:30 • write and send daily RC minutes (post it in eLogbook, too) • keep planning and statistics files up-to-date and post them on the web • you may attend the trigger meeting. Useful links at http://aliceinfo.cern.ch/static/trigger/doc/index.html • attend weekly LPC meeting on Monday at 14:00. Material can be found at http://indico.cern.ch/categoryDisplay.py?categId=1607 PRC Guide

  6. Tasks II • be present in ACR major part of the day and evening shifts • keep track on subsystem and machine status (LHC websites). Transfer information to SRC • setup and ensure, with SL, accomplishment of running plan • check and ensure that data-taking is going according to plan • communicate fluidly with SLs • replace SL if necessary • mind for a pleasant working atmosphere in ACR and WRs PRC Guide

  7. Location of shifters in ACR PRC Guide
