Overview

• Dry Run 2012.

• Detectors and subsystems status review.

• Tasks for Technical Run 2012.

Siena, August 2012, Jonas Arroyo


Dry Run 2012 - Objectives

• Deployment / setup vertical slice of final DCS infrastructure:

• Front-End computers, data servers, console.

• CAN and TCP/IP network infrastructure.

• Software: WinCC OA (PVSS), OPC Servers, integration recent developments into the production application.

• Complete control chain for Wiener crates.

• Initial integration of LAV Front-End boards control.

• DCS – Run Control link: discussion trigger• Initial exercise for integration of two systems.

• Reuse of DCS software components in RC.• Sharing of the computing infrastructure.

Dry Run 2012 - Challenges faced

• Setup of Wiener crates:• CANbus problems: bus terminators, parallel activity of users,

bitrates, distance...

• Hardware failures: LAV_3 crate, CEDAR fan tray, power supply.

• Investigating the cause of high failure rate: • Misplaced hardware: LKr_L0 crate installed in different place,

Clock_02 crate not arrived.

• Setup of LAV Front-End boards:• CANbus problems: bus terminators, parallel activity of users,

bitrates, distance... (more on this later).



Dry Run 2012 - Challenges faced

• Delayed infrastructure delivery impacted the schedule• CAN buses.

• TCP/IP networking.

• Power, racks in the farm room.

• Building works.

• Control room refurbishment.

• Hardware delivery.

• CAEN HV• Integration during the Dry Run dropped due to delays in the

delivery of h/w and s/w (OPC Servers).

• Validation/integration efforts ongoing (more in next slides).



Detectors and subsystems: Readiness for Technical Run 2012

- Common components: Wiener, CAEN

- Detectors review


Common components: Wiener

• Based on standard fwWiener component of JCOP Fw• Significantly reduces the hardware-integration effort.

• NA62 enhancements• New operation panels.

• Integration into the FSM tree (hierarchical control).

• Set up of default alarms.

• Request during the Dry Run to enhance information in user interface.

• Status of work: READY • Dry Run: successful control of all 6 available crates.

• Ready for immediate integration of missing/damaged crates.



Common components: CAEN HV• Control based on JCOP fwCaen component

• “Classic” CAEN SY1527/2527 and A1833 board:

• Will be used by LKr, CHOD for Technical Run 2012.

• Status of work: READY (already demonstrated in 2011).

• New CAEN SY4527 crate and A1536N board:

• Will be used by LAV, MUV, CEDAR, SAC for Technical Run 2012.

• Completely new control chain, late delivery (h/w and s/w):

• New OPC Server (v5), firmware from CAEN (beta only in July).

• Not validated, not integrated with JCOP Fw/PVSS .

• Issues with backward compatibility with older crates, OS.

• Significant effort in EN/ICE to validate/integrate as soon as possible: Benjamin Farnham, Roman Fedoseev, Manuel Gonzalez.

• Status of work: ADVANCED .

• To complete: final validation, panel enhancements.

• LKr L0 Wiener crate: software READY, crate not installed in the right place.



LKr for 2012 Technical Run: UI



LAV for 2012 Technical Run

• User Requirement Document received. √

• LAV Front End boards, initial integration by Vito Palladino:

• Managed to control in spite of CANbus problems (more in next slide).• Standalone application, pending integration with FSM in the final

application.

• Wiener crates: • READY LAV_01, LAV_02, LAV_03 h/w damaged.

• CAEN HV (3 SY4527 for 3 station): PENDING (Vito?)

• LAV Environment Monitor:• Application running again.

• To be replaced by VAISALA sensor: PENDING (men power).



LAV FE boards: CANbus communication

• Problem exposed during Dry Run 2012

• Diagnostic effort with EN/ICE expert help and tools• voltage levels out of CAN specification:

• exact reason/impact not yet understood; grounding?

• Needs to be understood

Conclusions


• Good progress during summer despite of the delays:

• Objectives of 2012 Dry Run achieved.

• Contributions from subdetectors very welcome (eg. Vito from LAV).

• Initial exploratory work on the interplay with Run Control carried out.

• NA62 DCS very well fitted in the CERN context:• Usage of CERN standard components and technologies.• Fruitful collaboration between EN/ICE and NA62 (h/w, OPC

Servers, PVSS development, FSM expertise, CAN bus debugging...).

• Collaboration with BE/CO made the DCS computing infrastructure setup much easier!

• STILL a lot of work ahead before we are ready for Technical Run.
