HCAL Commissioning Cabling • Cable interface to CAMAC • made 5 (40 channel) • needed 12 (+7 connectors) • due to module is spread • over 12 cable bundles 15.02.2006 Rustem DZHELYADIN (CERN&IHEP, Protvino) C-side A-side

HCAL Commissioning Access problem How to reach there (in the slit of 40cm) No chance to access PM-CW during muon chambers installation ??? HCAL Muon chamber installation schedule 18.01.06 Rustem DZHELYADIN (CERN&IHEP, Protvino)
HCAL Commissioning Future Preparing to the general commissioning of the LHCb detector the following has to be done • Measurement of Gain-HV for each PMT “in-situ” • Measurement of Delay-HV on LED-pulse (+7 mini-connectors needed) • Measurement of PMT linearity at different HV • Radioactive source commissioning and first run • Long-term stability monitoring for whole sub-detector Problemsstill • To complete the cabling of HCAL. • To solve the access problem (priority before June?) • PinD amplifiers to be screened up (dismantle 104 LED-PinD and install) • Exhaustive check of all PM-CW at C-side before June! 15.02.2006Rustem DZHELYADIN (CERN&IHEP, Protvino)
