  • Updates
    • CDet
      • want to take cosmics
      • all stuff mostly installed
      • start to focus on DAQ and software
      • module will be mounted next week
      • external scintillators for trigger : 4 - can read whole module or whole layer - installing the cables for the trigger - one ribbon cable and ribbon to BNC adapter - will pull longer BNC -
      • need LV for NINO and HV for PMTs : Ralph will check with Bob and Alex for CDet GUI - Layers and left and right - CDet1L0 to 41 - will give correspondance table - same as GEnRP polarimeter
      • picking up all LV boxes from Mark and will install
      • want to test layer 2 first : assume modules
      • need to set gate and reference channels
      • software needs first data file to work
      • DAQ : still need to put readout list - need
    • HCal
      • we had an issue with TI, put spare TI
      • issues with routerrrrer fixd
      • ready take data withCAl ter replacing TI again
    • ECal
      • working : ready to take cosmics
      • one FADC needs to be replace
      • can take with all detectors
      • beam clustering firmware : simulation on-going from maps from Hanjie - most firmware done, working out bugs in simulation, complication : using 5th QSFP a bit tricky - need to move data from one FPGA to the other - ~next week - want to check cluster from cosmics - for crosscheck VTP and FADC
    • GEM
      • taking cosmics with 4 VTPs
      • taking cosmics with zero supression
      • format for selective readout of GEM : need to check with Eric how to interpret digitized root file - need to convert into strip and APV information
      • will need torun simulation after data taken
      • will setup 5th VTP for histogramming and GEM ROI
