Detector (John)
Alignment
-detector aligned
-need to add appropriate units to plots
-need to look at pedestal vs. time
Gain Balancing/Resolution
-gain balancing using Minuit
-resolution ~22%
-need to study stability
-break up data into groups and by detector
-see if signal's peaks are similar
Timing
-width of time difference between trigger and signal ~1.5 ns
-need to look at timing between pairs of blocks in same events
-is there an effect of pulse height?
DAQ (Alex)
-need thresholds and pedestals to run in pulse modes
-start using pulse modes now
-scalars should be done soon, will need FPGA reprogramming
-will integrate with Hall B DAQ when Sergey returns
-need to add additional remote scintillators before Hall B integrated running
-need to think about how to trigger/timing will work with Hall B integrated running
Online Software (Dave)
-see link in agenda
HV controls (Hovanes)
-working
-minor bug to look at (IOC reboot)
Future (All)
-pulse modes
-scalars
-Hall B integration running
-detector motion studies (rotations and translations)
-move detector to floor after Hall B at 5 pass
