• Check performance of the FADC250 firmware

- significantly better emulation of the fadc algorithm (use cosmic, led pulser data)

- some 'minor' issues may still exist (Sean)

- take data with different fadc settings (NSAT, ...)

• Check discriminator firmware

• High rate trigger performance

- install new F1TDC firmware on some modules of the TAGH/TAGM crate

- expect more robust performance at high rate

(test performance using external TS FP generator)

- check busy distribution from tagger crates

• Modifications in config files

- initialization and readout (trigger) of the CompCal

- config files for the play back

• L1 emulation and efficiency studies

- 'semi-final' version of the trigger simulation

• L1 trigger tunning with the beam

- check performance of the FCAL, BCAL, and PS trigger

adjust timing delays

threshold scans (mask channels)

- adjust timing, check performance of the FCAL/BCAL trigger (raw readout mode for fadc 250)

- adjust readout windows, window size

(fine tune timing according to the feedback from sub-detector groups)

- restore trigger conditions for the FCAL/BCAL trigger from the previous run (spring 2016)

- add BCAL/FCAL led pulsers

( - tune/check TAGH & ST trigger )
