If Timepix DAQ is not working, first of all make a login to the master Timepix3 PC (192.168.60.98) and run the script named "pingSlavePC". If the answer looks like:

64 bytes from 10.100.101.11: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.790 ms
64 bytes from 10.100.101.12: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.587 ms
64 bytes from 10.100.101.13: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.762 ms
64 bytes from 10.100.102.14: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.792 ms
64 bytes from 10.100.102.15: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.797 ms
64 bytes from 10.100.102.16: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.751 ms

everything is fine. Otherwise, you need to enter Padme Hall to do an hard reset of Timepix3. The first attempt is trying to disconnect the two USBs connector from Timepix master PC (picture attached), and then execute "pingSlavePC" to see if anything changed. If not, you need to switch off the power to the Timepix master PC, and then switch it on again (button is on the other side of USB connectors).
