h2. Shifter Roles
95
96
* Leader: Communicate with MCR regarding desired beam energy and other relevant details.  Manage the DAQ (start and stop runs)
97
* Remote: Keep a shift log of actives during the shift.  Decode runs as they are completed. Post a shift summary logbook entry at the conclusion of your shift.

h2. VNC Connection Information (for Remote Shifts) 
100
101 2 David Flay
* Using terminal, ssh into login and then the computer that has the VNC server on it
102 3 David Flay
ssh -L 5901:localhost:XXXX @janedoe@fnalu.fnal.gov@
103 2 David Flay
Replace XXXX with a port number of your choice (avoid 22). Log in using JLab CUE credentials
104
105
* In the same session, ssh to the computer: 
106 3 David Flay
ssh -L XXXX:localhost:5901 @a-compton@clrlpc.dhcp.fnal.gov@ 
107 2 David Flay
Log in using JLab CUE credentials for user a-compton.
108
109
* On your machine, run the VNC application. When prompted for the VNC Server, use: localhost:5901

h2. How to make beam position plots using the MWPC data
115
116
The MWPC folder is located at: /home/a-compton/MWPC/
117
Raw data at: /home/a-compton/MWPC/data
118
decoder at: /home/a-compton/MWPC/analysis/basic
119
120
A script to run decoder and make one figure of beam position is available here:
121
122
/home/a-compton/MWPC/analysis/basic/wcsolid.csh
123
124
You can run this script at any folder.
