eventbuilders are not stopped by this, but continue running without writing files.
However, the QA and raw DAQ monitoring clients are still delivered with data in this state.
- \item[Restart EB] Start eventbuilders again (with most recent settings). It shall be followed by

\item[Set N EB] Sets the number of running instances of eventbuilders and restart the building
network with the new configuration.
Change only on request. E.g. 1 EB for cosmics, 8 or 12 EB for beam data.
\item[Stop TDC CAL] Stop the calibration run for trb3 TDCs that was started with the above button.
This button has to be pressed when all DAQ input subsystems as shown
in the eventbuilder input nodes have turned from blue to green color. On pressing, the ''TC''
-files are stopped and the new calibration is used for the next data taking runs.

are active again (see the list in ``EPICS Power'' -> ``RICH LV''), do a DAQ restart.
-A power cycle will trigger the temperature interlock for RICH power supplies.
+In the case that the power cycle triggered the temperature interlock for RICH power supplies.
The 3.3V supply might be blocked by the temperature interlock - restart DAQ, then try to reset it.

+The calibration needs to be done by an expert, because the
output of the Eventbuilders needs to be checked. This might take a while and therefore should only
be done during planned breaks, e.g. periods without beam.
