DAQ Status

DAQ Status. Hardware. At the moment we have 3 working system at CERN, 1 in Genova (?) There are 2 “half system” (TTCci & FEC are missing) We have no more FEC & TTCci. We “sacrificed” the test system in Bari for the latest H8 installation. Activities.

  1. DAQ Status

  2. Hardware • At the moment we have 3 working system at CERN, 1 in Genova (?) • There are 2 “half system” (TTCci & FEC are missing) • We have no more FEC & TTCci. We “sacrificed” the test system in Bari for the latest H8 installation. F.S. Cafagna, Coll. Meeting 16 March 2009

  3. Activities • Full support to the detectors in 555 and H8 (Everybody) • Opto-RX firmware maintenance and test (Michele) • Support to test activities in 555 (Ervin, Juha, Michele) • Debug and test of VME firmware (Gueorgui, Ervin, Juha, Michele) • Software development for VME readout (Ervin, Juha) • Monitor development (Jan, Mate) F.S. Cafagna, Coll. Meeting 16 March 2009

  4. F.S. Cafagna, Coll. Meeting 16 March 2009

  5. TOTFED class • Based on the HAL library • VME access functionality • Address tables • XDAQ compatible • Class doesn’t implement user interface Ervin & Juha

  9. vfat_controller updates Juha • VME readout added to all the scans • Software now controls FEC, TTCci and FED • Reading 1 event at the time • Max trigger rate ~1kHz (one VFAT) • Gets slower while adding more VFATs (all commands are consecutive)

  10. Future Activities • Support to the detectors (as usual) • IP5 system review, repair and new software & hardware deployment. (PC OSs have been updated in IP5 ... ) • Debug and test of VME firmware • Development of DCS interface (we plan to set-up a test environment in 555) F.S. Cafagna, Coll. Meeting 16 March 2009

  11. Conclusion • Detector support is draining all the manpower. • No hardware to setup any other system even in IP5. • To be ready in IP5 we need to: • Deploy and test the software in the updated OS • Find: TTCci & FEC ( Or move from H8 or 555) • Is it the interface to DCS mandatory ? • There are no resources for software development until we have to support all those system and activities.
