Spare Sector in DSF

Calibration of the SPD spare sector in DSF

 

Summary: succesful powering on. Secuirty system reliable, cooling stable, PVSS working and stable, HS configuration optimized.

To do:

  • Fast-OR:
    • Optical Splitters to be received, to be installed (tbd a patch-panel) in the rack.
    • PIT software (fed + PVSS) to be set up
    • Fo chips configuration to be optimized
  • 90Sr source test and cosmic data-taking with FO trigger

Powering on again 12/12 HS ON..

 

Low and stable temperatures with configurations optimized.

FEE optimization, Uniformity Matrix Scan performed

Remarks:

  1. 4 noisy pixel masked.
  2. 0A0 Chip 0-2-4-6-7-9 show inefficiencies, not possible to improve anymore. To check with 90Sr source.
  3. 0A3 Chip 7 shows inefficiencies, not possible to improve anymore. To check with 90Sr source.
  4. 1A2 Chip 1 (i.e. 0C2 Chip1) shows column test with double countings. To check with 90Sr source.

  • Cooling  specs:

working pressure 2.94 bar

working flow 2.01 g/s

  • Safety specs:

Redundant Interlock system installed, logical OR of

  1. Router Temperature
  2. PT1000 chain Temperature readout via HP DAQ
  3. PLC Cooling loop-OFF
  • Software/CAEN
  1. PVSS for CAEN follows the right convention of Side A and C
  2. The routers are both in Side A. The CAEN Side A is Eq0. The CAEN Side C is Eq1.
  • New Daq PC (SLC5) with 3 RORCS installed.
  • SPDMood working properly, SPD DA installed + RefDisplay (instructions soon)
