• Updates
  • HCal
    • Ran DAQ successfully with main DAQ - Everything looks ok now
    • everything looks good for thousands events - latency adjusted for cosmics
    • issue with RF missing hits in F1 even with cosmics - not clear why it happens ? High rate RF ( 6 MHz ) ?

can only put 16 hits in buffer - window 300 ns -

• • • want to add an 1190
    • test stand alone HCAL config

• • GEMs
    • found issue with APV LV - connector burnt - Armen coming to fix it - now LV is fine - cable might have gotten loose - might be able to monitor with raspberry pi - IR camera - check rating of fuses - 15 A fuse now - seemed better with 10 A - two pairs should draw less than 20 A.
    • test standalone DAQ - working now with pulser - trigger cosmics working but need to adjust the latency
    • going to replace a few MPDs and will test that suspicious ones
    • INFN : worked on VTP readout in INFN cleanroom
    • Simulation : need to mmodify g4sbs to match with engineering drawing - will run simulation awork on developping the code to convert simulation to electronics map - need check with Ben for format

• • CDet
    • I made stand alone config - missing library - still need updating firmware

• • Ecal
    • testing
    • need to add VTP to stand alone config
    • 2 spare FADC to Simona - Crate 3 FADC 14 was odd

• • Scaler
    • clock frequency
    • most scalers working

• • beamline
    • helicity board tested stand alone - readout list next week
