Updates
- HCal
  - started setting up summing trigger for cosmics, need more discriminators. Discriminator setup, need remote control of threshold ( check with electronics group ) - need threshold control - DAC VME board to be setup ( Chris board ) - need a long cable for setup in the hall. Need evaluate threshold for individual PMTs ( need to think of a scheme ) - could try turning some HV off - capacitive coupling ? ( need to figure out - most likely no) - need have trigger energy calibration - summing module sum of 16 - is 60 Hz an issue ? Added capacitor coupling on BigBite (20 pF)might need to do that ( but AC coupling has rate dependence ) - channel going in discriminator - 80 group - plan to have 1 more FADC for reference time - if 2 FADCs can add sum.
  - HCAL DAQ upgrade to Centos 7 and last FADC library version will take a few days

- Bigbite hodoscope
  - taking runs every day - ADC and TDC spectra - was stopping at 1 M - run in VNC ok - debugging issues - s

- LHRS
  - all fastbus crate working stand alone
  - will put all crates together
  - still need to install Centos 7

- INFN GEM
  - taking cosmics since Wednesday - some crashes from time to time - DAQ is fine and low level plots look good - but cosmics data missing large amount
  - Bryan fixed hv program but most likely not related to previous issue

- UVA GEM clean room
  - still have network issues - router ordered should arrive today

- GEM TEDF
  - got working common noise subtraction and pedestal subtraction
  - cosmics trigger setup, Sean looking at adjusting latency

, Peter will work on installing PMTs

- - clrlpc is back : will be used for CDET DAQ
  - need find TI SD and CPU and waiting for VETROCs

- GRINCH
  - sealed with gasket, trying powering to check if everything is work - ribbon cable working -

noisy on some cables - around translator
