Minutes

Attendees: Elton, David, Alam, Beni, John, Dan, Yi (JLab); Shawn (NW); Matt (IU); Zisis, Shaun? (UofR had trouble with Seevogh connections, participated by audio)

  1. Announcements
  2. Action Items
  3. Monitoring
    • Documentation for the controls for Fcal on DocdB.
    • Switches are being currently installed .
    • Electrical work is ongoing with clean power expected within a week
    • As soon as connected, will check interaction of control circuits with PLC
  4. FCAL
    1. Plexiglass monitoring panels arrived
      • Two of the four panels were not machined correctly. Replacement panels were shipped from Eljen and arrived last Friday.
      • John and Dan checked dimensions and sanded circular area to match the Athens test piece
      • They have been transported down to the hall. The non-conforming panels will be shipped back to Eljen.
      • The LED boards will be secured to the panels once the panels are in place. They will be equally spaced except to avoid the support brackets.
      • The plan is to attach the boards to the panels using UV curing glue.
    2. FCAL Calibration
      • Nice summary of the expected calibration procedure by Matt
      • Shawn had several questions and comments
      • Shawn: Should we use the gain as an indicator of dead channels? Elton: Should have an additional quality factor for each channel
      • Shawn: How is the type (color) of LED recorded in the data? We need to make sure this gets into the data stream.
