Goals

  • Do pedestal studies with a battery on the HRSs
  • Getting Japan to work with all 4 crates simultaneously

Pedestal Testing

Using batteries to look for pedestal noise floor, drift, or helicity correlated pickup

  • Run 1032 - failed
  • Run 1033 - Battery (1.6 V) plugged into RHRS first ADC, channel 7 (index 7, 8th channel) - 5300 events at 30 Hz flip rate, 500 us Tsettle time (scalers and synch monitor are now invalid - were set for 240 Hz and 160 us Tsettle timing)
  • Run 1034 - Battery (1.6 V) plugged into RHRS second ADC, channel 4 - 5300 events (I may have accidentally moved lumi signal in channel 1 to 2, either way, its in 2 now)
  • Run 1035 - Battery (1.6 V) plugged into LHRS only ADC, channel 7 - 36000 events

JAPAN 4 Crate Map

Paul King helped create a 4 crate map.

  • We decided to make map files based on detector type
  • The blindable detectors will be one type of class (MollerDet) and the lumis get their own class, as do scalers
  • We added Prex Tandem, At, Scalers, and SAMs to the detector maps, and got all but scalers to work
  • Unfortunately, with going back to 1000 run number it messes with the run-number based map memory in Japan
