***Cables from FE to bunker : about 20% done ~ 2weeks to complete - could use man power to unroll cable while 2 people installing
 
***5 to 9 Sebastian and Provokar out of town
 
***power to HCAL racks - still no power - issue with transformer - Jack thinks transformer might not have enough power

  • Updates
    • HCal
    • Bigbite Shower
    • Bigbite Hodoscope
    • GRINCH
    • LHRS
    • CDet
    • GEM BB Hall A
    • GEM INFN Test Lab
    • GEM UVA
    • Beamline
    • Helicity
    • HV
    • Scalers
  • VME controllers


  • On-going tasks
    • Network setup ( done )
    • Scaler crate setup (75 % - need put crate in / setup cpu )
    • 3 rd GEM VXS crate install router moved up ( 75% )
    • need power and network in GEM bunker
    • detector accounts setup ( check with Ole )
    • boot VME controllers (GRINCH Hodo Shower , 2GEM crate up ~60 % controller booted - Bryan setting up as in TEDF - need setup MPD new controllers)
    • detector cabling -
    • new MPD production - about to start - need to ship our FPGA to Paolo
    • MPD VTP readout - on-going in daq lab - being setup in Hall A - need setup VTPs to boot
    • setup portservers
    • need to install remote switch for crate in bunker - rest are VXS or VME64
    • Bigbite - HCal trigger setup
    • TS setup - 0%
    • Beamline crate setup ( in scaler crate )
    • HCAL cabling
    • HCAL need power
    • Mark hodoscope trigger ?
    • Computer move to Hall A : sbsdaq1/2 tedbbdaq enpcamsonne
    • LHRS fiber pull


  • Outstanding issues
    • 2 bad FADCs Bigbite - 1 FADC was repaired - one being repaired - 1 Compton FADC
    • SD delay : still need 2 SDs ( Glasgow and INFN just requested quote )
    • need to adjust for HCAL transit time with different PMTs
    • status of cosmics paddles ( installed by Bogdan )
    • GEM fibers too short : 60 m ordered
    • 15 bad MPDs
