HiRA Si cables
we need 2×14 cables
who should make those cables and should they be shielded?
we could reuse HiRA dE cables (that should be long enough) but we have only 20 so we should make more. Those cables are schielded. PLEASE ANSWER
New CsI cables. - NSCL is going to make them
How many detectors are you going to run with 2-gain setup? PLEASE ANSWER
New 2-gain boards - WashU is going to make new boards. Did they test them? PLEASE ANSWER
preamps; WashU brings own preamps and figures out how to cable them and put the setup together. PLEASE CONFIRM
Can we run 12 CBs in one
MB? NSCL is going to test it. The Sparky should be able to handle 12 CBs w/o si detectors but the issue is whether it can handle the setup of 12 CBs connected to the si detectors. In the past we could run up to 11-12 CBs in the
MB with Jon's power supply but we couldn't run more than 9 CBs when the si detectors were connected.
Related to 2.f. If we need to use 4 MBs then WashU should make new flange.
Put HiRA racks back to old configuration. - NSCL responsibility
Request VME/USB for Epool.
The issue is that there is no single vm-usb module in NSCL epool. Ron has one that he uses for software development and Dirk has one that belongs to gamma group. It's possible that WashU will have to bring their VM-USB module to NSCL to run the experiment. PLEASE, LET US KNOW IF YOU CAN'T BRING YOUR MODULE
How are we going to run HiRA Si (in terms of VME modules)?
How many modules and what type are going to be brought by WashU (XLM with 2 lvds? XLM with 1lvds and 4fadc?)
How many XLM modules do you need from NSCL? We have to make sure we have backup modules.
We don't have a single XLM (1lvds, 4adc) at NSCL. Can Ron develop his code without this module? PLEASE, RESPOND
HiRA test setup available for Ron - Should be ready this week - NSCL responsibility
Check that we have working Pico systems. - NSCL
Confirm that we have straight pulser through to Csi PA’s - NSCL
Are we going to use CSI discriminator in PICO? PLEASE CONFIRM
Remove dE silicon detectors?
PLEASE, MAKE A CASE WHY WE SHOULD DO IT. Aren't we going to have calibration beam?
NSCL is going to revisit the procedures of removing and mounting the dE detectors.
