In general, watch his displays and help judging data quality based on your knowledge about the running  Attend Run Meeting (send DM if you are busy)  Follow running during your period of shifts (Logbook, Run News)  Every Start of Shift: Talk to previous shifter and read his Shifter Summary before he leaves Read Daily Shifter Instructions Read Common Problems and Remedies Read logbook of last 24h Make a tour of all screens to make a cerebral snap shot  Operations Twiki Webpages: https://lbtwiki.cern.ch/bin/view/Operation/WebHome 4

However, some radiation is normal, and is just due to proton-proton collisions, beam gas and halo particles. High radiation levels for a long enough time can trigger a beam dump to avoid serious damages to the detector. Background is the normal life around an accelerator but it can be unacceptably high. This affects the quality of the data. If high, it can decrease the expected life of the detectors  Guidelines for BCM: Injection: Beam losses may reach 30% of dump threshold on BCM  May happen a few times but should not be systematically above  inform LHC Circulating beam: Beam losses up to 10% is already an anomaly  Up to 2% in 2010 purely due to collisions  Single spike OK, repeatedly or constant, inform LHC In case of doubt call Run Chief or Run Coordinator  BLS and RMS guidelines to come 47

Its state has to be READY before a run can be started  The CONFIGURE command first tries to do that if needed  Problems in this area requires sub-detector experts  DAI (DAq Infrastructure) Handles the crates housing readout modules in D3, and in the cavern. Here also it has to be READY before to configure the system 91

Wait for the RPE piquet to come to the Control Room 2. The RPE piquet will go into the cavern 3. Wait until the RPE piquet lifts the RP-VETO and tells you to call the CCC 4. Call the CCC and ask them to put UX85 in Restricted Mode and to delegate access control to you (“Access Delegation”) 5. Give access with key to RPE piquet 6. The RPE piquet will inform you when the RP survey is completed and access to UX85B is allowed  See https://edms.cern.ch/document/926635 for instructions on how to get delegation and to give accesshttps://edms.cern.ch/document/926635 95
