GlueX Start Counter Meeting
Monday, October 23, 2023
9:00 am EDT

Meeting information: https://jlab-org.zoomgov.com/j/1604147172?pwd=QjRtMDRRQ0lVNW5oVVA0VmFMSnh1dz09
Benedikt Zihlmann is inviting you to a scheduled ZoomGov meeting.
Topic: Start Counter

Agenda

  • Start Counter status:
    • Calibration: SC Calibration Wiki Page
    • Start_Counter_Operations
    • Geometry: SC match to tracks
    • Preparation for next year's running
      • FADC250_READ_THR 120: (Runs 41384, 120848) needs to be higher, 20 ADC counts above base line is too low. Full scale of 4096 bits is 500mV with a base line around 100 leads to 500mV/(4096-100) = 0.12mV / ADC count: So a setting of 20 ADC counts above base line corresponds to only 2.5mV
      • DSC2_THRESHOLD 50 60: this corresponds to 50mV for discriminator threshold setting.
      • while adc readout threshold is clearly set too low the discriminator threshold may be too high. Need to find compromise and better match.
