# Past 24 hours:
 +
#* Acceptable quality beam established early morning around 11:00 am.
 +
#** Beam profile and convergence by Jay:https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3652506
 +
#* DIRC data taking.
 +
#*# DIRC analysis is on-going.
 +
# Issues
 +
#* Cryo Water Temperature jump to 72F (limit 70F).
 +
#** Due to pump switch: https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3652512
 +
#* IOC lost communication
 +
#** IOCHDCOL failed at 21:30. Reported to us by MCC at 0:00. Reset at 1:50 am. Hovanes verified things are ok at 3am.  https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3652920
 +
#* DIRC SSP problem:
 +
#** DAQ stopped twice due to the out of sync issue.
 +
#* Tagger RF time: https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3652533
 +
#* hdview2 is work working
 +
#Today:
 +
#* No planned access
 +
#* Opportunistic access requested by Kenoe to work on GEM.
 +
#* DIRC nominal running (MOROC threshold scan?)
 +
 
 +

== Friday, Feb. 15 at 08:45 ==
 +
# Past 24 hours:
 +
#* Nominal DIRC setting collected 1B triggers
 +
#** Switched to the higher MOROC threshold (200)
 +
#* Smooth overnight running at 180nA, coming back to the desired 225nA this morning.
 +
#* Both opportunistic accesses happened during the accelerator down time due to the bulk power supply failure.
 +
# Issues:
 +
#* Beam steered to the wrong BCM, therefore constrained the maximum beam delivered to 180nA
 +
#**Detailed log: https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3653554
 +
#* Goni camera, wrong angle, did something move? https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3653437
 +
#* root spy crash: https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3653678
 +
#* DIRC SSP
 +
#** Runs at MOROC threshold of 50 not possible due to the out of sync issue, need to be looked into
 +
#** Out of sync over night (after switching the MOROC threshold).
 +
#* hdview2 and monitoring email working?
 +
# Plan for today:
 +
#* keep collecting higher MOROC threshold data (up to 1B triggers).
 +
#* When beam is not available, 15 min LED runs with different pulsing and trigger conditions.
 +
#* No planned and opportunistic access
