=== Active Collimator Naming Convention ===
 +
*For EPICS PVs
 +
**N9 corresponds to inner wedges
 +
**N10 corresponds to outer wedges
 +
*For Monticello plots
 +
**I corresponds to inner wedges
 +
**O corresponds to outer wedges
 +
*Common to both EPICS and Monticello
 +
**XP corresponds to X, plus
 +
**XM corresponds to X, minus
 +
**YP corresponds to Y, plus
 +
**YM corresponds to Y, minus
 +
 +
=== List of EPICS PVs ===
 +
 +
Here are the waveform records with size of '''8192''', N9 are inner and N10 are outer:
 +
*'''Inner'''
 +
**<code>iochdcol:BPM:N9:raw_XP</code>
 +
**<code>iochdcol:BPM:N9:raw_XM</code>
 +
**<code>iochdcol:BPM:N9:raw_YP</code>
 +
**<code>iochdcol:BPM:N9:raw_YM</code>
 +
*'''Outer'''
 +
**<code>iochdcol:BPM:N10:raw_XP</code>
 +
**<code>iochdcol:BPM:N10:raw_XM</code>
 +
**<code>iochdcol:BPM:N10:raw_YP</code>
 +
**<code>iochdcol:BPM:N10:raw_YM</code>
 +
 +
These are the 16-bit count readings for individual plates that are always available and filtered down to ~1Hz (same order as above):
 +
*'''Inner'''
 +
**<code>IOCHDCOL:VMICADC1_1</code>
 +
**<code>IOCHDCOL:VMICADC2_1</code>
 +
**<code>IOCHDCOL:VMICADC3_1</code>
 +
**<code>IOCHDCOL:VMICADC4_1</code>
 +
*'''Outer'''
 +
**<code>IOCHDCOL:VMICADC1_2</code>
 +
**<code>IOCHDCOL:VMICADC2_2</code>
 +
**<code>IOCHDCOL:VMICADC3_2</code>
 +
**<code>IOCHDCOL:VMICADC4_2</code>
 +
 +
And the gains:
 +
*<code>IPMHDACI_GainSub</code>
 +
*<code>IPMHDACI_GAINXP</code>
 +
*<code>IPMHDACI_GAINXM</code>
 +
*<code>IPMHDACI_GAINYP</code>
 +
*<code>IPMHDACI_GAINYM</code>
 +
*<code>IPMHDACO_GainSub</code>
 +
*<code>IPMHDACO_GAINXP</code>
 +
*<code>IPMHDACO_GAINXM</code>
 +
*<code>IPMHDACO_GAINYP</code>
 +
*<code>IPMHDACO_GAINYM</code>
