2017-09-22 | Alicia, Pepa, Taka, Yusuke | Shipping | All arrived in Mirka without any problem!! We are done!! | |
2017-09-21 | Alicia, Taka, Yusuke | Shipping | All stuff were put into container with a fork lifter. Everything went smoothly. Now Sala AIV is empty!! | |
2017-09-20 | Alicia, Taka, Yusuke | Packing | We built the last module tower in rush. 8 towers were successfully put into the wooden box by mechanical engineers and the transportation company. Everything is ready for shipping!! | |
2017-09-19 | Alicia, Taka, Yusuke | Packing | We built 4 more module towers. The wooden frame for mirror was also built. Dark box frame and panels were also well packed. | |
2017-09-18 | Alicia, Taka, Yusuke | Packing | We established the way of module rack packing. We built 3 towers. | |
2017-09-16 | Taka, Yusuke | LGs | We put LG bases for all modules. All modules in 10 racks are screwed onto the racks. 2.5 more to go. (its saturday today!) | |
2017-09-15 | Taka, Pepa, Yusuke | Packing | Silica Gel finally arrived. All polystyrene boards are cut in right size. But we realized that we need to make dips on the boards for latch of the racks. Higinio agreed to make them. Packing carton boxes has started. | |
2017-09-14 | Pepa | LG base | It was a holiday in LaLaguna, but Pepa worked for LG base... Thank you! | |
2017-09-13 | Taka, Pepa, Yusuke | Dismantling Dark Box and putting LGs | Dark box was successfully dismantled. LG base was finally delivered and we put them for 3 racks. | |
2017-09-12 | Taka, Pepa, Yusuke | Packing and Module QC | Right polystyrene delivered. Out of 40, 12 are already cut to make right size. Module QC also worked. Dark box was started to be dismantled. Packing small boxes has started. We ordered 16 belt needed for crane. Only worries are missing LGs and Silica Gel. We hope they will arrive in time. | |
2017-09-11 | Taka, Pepa, Yusuke | Packing and Module assembly | Yusuke arrived. Formed polystyrene delivered from Leroy Merlin had a wrong thickness. They will deliver the right one tomorrow. Yusuke build 5 new modules. QE of them are not known. But performance should be fine. QC script didn't work well. | |
2017-09-08 | Taka, Pepa | Packing | In the end, we asked Oscar to buy Silica Gel from RS and send them to IAC with express packet. Let's see. We bought film (8 rolls), sheet (8) and foamed polystyrene (40). They should be enough to wrap 8 towers. 3 spaniards left IAC. | |
2017-09-07 | Taka, Pepa, Crhistobal | Packing | Bought plastic film. Basic idea of packing is established, (foamed polystyrene, plastic sheet, and then film. We realized that Silica Gel cannot be bought in this island. Even in online, delivery takes more than 10 days. Big problem. | |
2017-09-06 | Taka, Alicia | Packing | Went to Leroy Merlin to buy plastic sheet and foamed polystyrene for packing. | |
2017-09-05 | Taka, Alicia, Chirstobal, Luis Angel, Pablo | Packing | Studied how to pack the module racks to prevent humidity during shipping. | |
2017-09-05 | Cristobal, Luis Angel, Pable | TIB, UCTS, White Rabbit | The DHCP problem is solved. Now things are working fine. | |
2017-09-05 | Taka | Accident | To study the 0 problem, one modules was taken out (ID007) from position 18. After some time we needed to put one module in the missing place. But we forgot to power off the camera. As a result, the fuse of the Dragon is blown (ID 207). Sorry for the mistake. Now ID 208 is there. | |
2017-09-04 | Cristobal, Luis Angel, Pable | TIB, UCTS, White Rabbit | They arrived. Tried to setup white Rabbit switch, UCTS. UCTS needs DHCP server to get IP. Osaka was configured as DHCP but it did not work. | |
2017-09-04 | Tsutomu | Cross talk | Cross talk of PMT is less than 0.5 %. | https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0PR0tNrCVoWX0ZOaV9rcU1WQjg |
2017-09-01 | Takayuki | Dragon firmware | Taka reproduced the zero problem (some dragons send only 0 ADC values after some events). | |
2017-09-01 | Alicia, Takayuki | Climate Chamber test | We made again 2 Sum Trigger runs. This time successful. Behavior of SumT is fine. Only IPR and Majority trigger is affected. Majority Trigger is more sensitive than IPR to the temperature. | |
2017-09-01 | Gustavo | BP calibration | 3 delays, Clock phase, L1 trigger and camera trigger were successfully calibrated. Differences between modules are less than 1 ns. Gustavo left IAC with one Dragon and one Ethernet switch. | |
2017-08-31 | Alicia, Takayuki | Climate Chamber test | We made 3 runs, 1 Majority trigger and 2 Sum Trigger. But it turned out later that the sum trigger runs were unsuccessful. Taka's pc went to sleep mode and communication was lost. | |
2017-08-30 | Takayuki | Climate Chamber test | Two module set up is well configured. Tomor
row we check trigger propagation and Majority trigger with ClimateChamber. || | |
2017-08-29 | Gustavo | BP calibration | 10 MHz clocks were time-equalized within 1 ns. Gustavo found that mezzanine (L0 037 L1 066) had problem in reading register value. Writing seems not be a problem. | |
2017-08-29 | Takayuki | Climate Chamber test | Softwares (ClusCo and Analysis). Taka found that L0 delay initialization from ClusCo doesn't work from his laptop (ubuntu on mac), although rbcp itself worked. | |

2017-08-28 | Takayuki Daisuke Tsutomu Alicia Gustavo | Climate Chamber test | The central BP (BPV3 S481500038) removed from the minicamera setup to be tested in the climate chamber. Instead, the BP who was at #3 is moved to the center, one of the spare BP Gustavo brought here is installed at #3. | |
2017-08-28 | Takayuki | New leader | Takayuki has arrived | |
2017-08-24 | Daisuke, Alicia, Gustavo | Climate Chamber test | We repeated the measurement in the climate chamber with the same and with a new mezzanine. Most probably the instability in IPR rates is originated somewhere in the copied L0 line of mezzanines. | short summary |
2017-08-24 | Leyre Gustavo | Calibration | Confirmation that binary search is working properly. We confirm also that the TP input signals are measured as expected. We started checking L0 timing calibration procedure. | |
2017-08-24 | Tsutomu Daisuke | Cross Talk | We took some data with ROI=200 | |
2017-08-23 | Daisuke, Alicia, Gustavo | Climate Chamber test | we observed that IPRs were very unstable when the ambient temperature is as high as 40 deg. | short summary |
2017-08-22 | Leyre, Gustavo | Trigger Calibration | We reviewed the algorithm of the binary search because there was a bug in the previous version. We tested it in the camera and found some other bugs to be corrected. | |
2017-08-22 | Daisuke Alicia Tsutomu Gustavo | Climate Chamber | We will be performing the same test tomorrow with one of the spare trigger mezzanine. | Gustavo made a good configuration setting of BP such that BP propagate back L1 to its own CONFIGURE_BP 1 12 0x0099 CONFIGURE_BP 1 11 0xFFFF CONFIGURE_BP 1 11 0x0000 CONFIGURE_BP 1 3 0x0000 CONFIGURE_BP 1 4 0x0000 CONFIGURE_BP 1 5 0x0000 CONFIGURE_BP 1 6 0x8001 CONFIGURE_BP 1 8 0x0000 CONFIGURE_BP 1 10 0x0000 CONFIGURE_BP 1 24 0x0000 |
2017-08-22 | Daisuke Alicia Tsutomu | Climate Chamber | We performed the test | Temperature HV TP charge |
2017-08-21 | Alicia, Daisuke, Tsutomu | Climate Chamber | We have configured the climate chamber as follows, 1) go to 60 degree over 1 hour (~0.5deg/sec), 2) stay at 60 deg. for 10 min, 3) go down to 20 deg. in 45 min (~1deg/min). We have prepared a script which, 1) Take TP data (1000events), 2) turn ON HV (@1000V), 3) wait for 1min, 4) turn OFF, 5) wait for 1min, during the entire period. Fundamental pedestal table (with Taka's old method )was created just before we start the test. Experiment was successful however, due to the power-saving setting of Daisuke's macbook pro, monitoring was done only some partial time,,, we will repeat tomorrow again the same test | TemperatureLog of the chamber SCB temperature HV val TP charge Link down at 12:46 ( at 11:46 in UTC) |

2017-08-10 | Daisuke, Tsutomu, Alicia | TIB setting | Following three lines added in test_python_script.sh
python ${py_dir}/disable_software_trigger.py python ${py_dir}/disable_mono.py python ${py_dir}/disable_slow_control_trigger.py It seems the initial ModeMask setting has changed in the new TIB firmware, and we need to explicitly disable SOFT/MONO/SLOW triggers when we want to use AUTOPEDESTAL trigger |

2017-08-08 | Dirk, Daisuke Tsutomu | Strange Triggers?? | We can not reproduce the strange behaviour we saw yesterday... | An email sent from Daisuke to the email thread [climate chamber at IAC] |
2017-08-08 | Dirk, Daisuke | Forgotten NIC | Dirk forgot to bring back their 2×10Gb NIC from okinawa. We should keep track of them. If really necessary, they will ask us to ship them. | |

2017-08-07 | Dirk, Daisuke | Strange Triggers?? | We discovered today that sometime module 14,15 and 18 created ~4 MHz of L1 external triggers by its own when temperature is high. Very strange behaviour, need to be investigated further. Attached are screenshots, we have injected periodic trigger at 1kHz, but only some modules got very high trigger rate. | https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6V4naKAxXfUTl8xcXR4VXYzY0k https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6V4naKAxXfUeVdlNF9vLXlVZ1E |

2017-08-03 | Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu, Riccardo | EVB test | Julien found an interesting SiTCP option :Fast retrains, second bit of the address 0xFFFFFF10. (Default is off). With this option re-transmission time is automatically optimised! | |
2017-08-03 | Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu, Riccardo | EVB test | We understood the SiTCP parameter for the timeout duration of re-transmission (0xFFFFFF2E). This should be optimised with respect to the real RTT | |
2017-08-03 | Dirk, Julien, Daisuke Tsutomu, Riccardo | EVB test | Dragon buffer size consistent with Takayuki's report 88 events | |
