Comments • Stand-alone DAQ program has been employed for the test. • Device driver by CAEN does not implement read/write functions. • Use CAENVMElib in the program • Library for the driver to manage VME masterV2718, distributed by CAEN • Function CAENVME_IRQEnable returns “Unknown Error” • CAENVMElib • Source code for this library is not distributed. • Seems no problem for DAQ (for now). • It should be fixed. (also, dead time becomes smaller?) • Jean-Sebastien suggests that we need to contact CAEN software team. MICE tracker phone meeting

Figure is the capture of my note pc calling run control manager installed in DAQ PC. RUN Control Manager Data taking is not working which should be implemented! MICE tracker phone meeting
Summary • Making test bench in Osaka using CAEN VME modules, V2718, V977. • DATE package is installed in DAQ PC. • Now is trying to readout, event building. MICE tracker phone meeting
