Unless your institute has an account at the ORM you need to select to pay privately, also use this option if you are not sure. The form of payment can be changed on site. You might want to put in the comments you want a room in the annex apartments which are a bit cheaper, see the current rates. If you say nothing, they put you in the main building.

Commissioning Plans and Shift Schedule 2020

The overall commissioning plan can be found in the first sheet of the LST Commissioning Schedule.

Policy for Camera tests and remote help

For camera tests and to request remote help from the camera experts, there are special policy how to schedule them. The Shift leader should try to enforce them, they are to be followed except in emergency cases which will be coordinated by Camera Coordinator and Deputy Coordinator (Carlos Delgado & Takayuki Saito). Formally, the policies are the following:

  • FOR REGULAR DATATAKING
    • During datataking, when shifters request help from the camera expert on-call through the whatsapp group "Lst1CamOnCall", the camera expert should take full control of the camera remotely, solve the problem, and return the control to the shifters only after it has been solved.
    • Camera expert on-call can, and should, rely on camera subsystems experts if needed to solve the issue.
    • In other words, expert on call should not ask shifters to perform any action that can be done remotely.
  • FOR CAMERA TESTS BY EXPERTS
    • Camera tests should be performed, if possible, during day time on fixed time slots from 14:00 to 19:00 UTC for tests by Europeans, and from 9:00 to 13:00 UTC for tests by Japanese experts.
    • Only one slot can be used per day.
    • All requests for slots for tests must be planned in advance and a written test procedure has to be provided in order to identify the required resources, as well as a proposed date. This information has to be provided with at least 24 hours before the proposed date to Carlos Delgado, Takayuki Saito and Oscar Blanch.
    • Only tests appearing in the camera tests schedule are allowed to be carried out.
    • The shift leader has to reject any camera test that has not been scheduled by Carlos Delgado, Takayuki Saito or Oscar Blanch.
    • After any camera test, the shifters must perform a DRS4 pedestal run following the commissioning manual to verify the proper function of the camera'.
    • In other words, the shift leader has to reject any camera test that has not been scheduled, and the tests must leave the system clean and ready.
