DAQ MICO Report
• Online Monitoring:– Status
• All histograms are now implemented• Still not fully online
– Only monitoring from data file (slightly offline, means as soon as the run is finished)
– Problem with system event management: interference between DATE semaphore system for file synchronization and monitoring software timers used for histograms broadcast
– A new software design has been proposed, should be implemented by June 04 2008 = new milestone date
Main Power distribution
• Milestone 80 % passed– Two racks are not yet fully equipped – All hardware can be (and is) connected
though
• One small integration problem:– Some crate power supplies can’t be removed
from the back of the rack => make maintenance uncomfortable
• We’ll se if we can improve that. Not urgent, not a milestone
Synchronization DAQ/Target
• The current version works well.– Milestone passed– For the moment, the target system is the
driver and the DAQ is the slave– Will need upgrade when the RF system is
included.• I’ll do that in July • Upgrade milestone July 31 2008
Crate power supplies
• Can be considered as passed– The VME power supplies are equipped with
their power plug – The 2 missing NIM power supplies are on
their way to RAL, plus 2 spares
Particle trigger cabling
• Passed– All cables are at RAL– Waiting for TOF0 and TOF1
• Front End Electronics for TOF and EMCAL – No status Change – We have detected some operational problem with the TDC.
CAEN is being contacted.• This might become critical if the problem is confirmed
– Waiting from the delivery from Rome/Milano
• DAQ and particle trigger distribution– No status Change– Cables finished– Was waiting for the NIM crate power supply– New milestone date: July 07 2008
• Full DAQ trigger implementation– Not needed before the Tracker is in the Hall– New milestone date: July 07 2008
