Scope of DAQ/Online/Controls Effort
The responsibility of the Online Working Group (OWG) includes all aspects of running the experiment and taking data, as well as diagnosis of all problems that occur during data taking. Installation and repair of detector hardware is of course the responsibility of the individual detector groups, but control and monitoring of detector hardware by shift personnel IS the responsibility of the OWG.
In particular, although detector groups may develop some control systems, the OWG will review them for compatibility with the overall control system, and they may need to be modified to be compatible. Systems only used by experts need not be reviewed, although compatibility with the rest of the system is desirable. Similarly, detector controls hardware must be compatible the overall experiment and slow controls systems. Every effort will be made to be as open to different types of hardware as possible, but certain types one-off or oddball systems may not be acceptable.
