Distributed DCC Test System ECAL Supervisor : 1. Identifies VME64x complient devices in the crate. 2. Retrives the DOM Configuration (DStore) and configures the devices (GConfig). 3. DCC is set in test mode. ECAL Supervisor DStore DCC-T : 4. Identifies and configures the DCC-T. 5. Prepares the GIII for operation (FEDKit) 6. Deals with simulated data (TCC, SR,FE and triggers) emulating the DCC events. 7. Load input data and triggers in the DCC-T memories 8. Prepare DCC to receive triggers (ECAL Supervisor). 9. Starts the test and compares emulated data against readout data ( io2 events received from RC::VME and FedKit::SLINK) DCC i2o FEDkit GIII DCC-T SOAP DCC-T

SLB Production Tests • Test 0 : Serial number • VME readout serial number must match with the SLB id. • Test 1 : Configuration and state transitions • Power on configuration, reconfiguration, state transitions (VME & Broadcast). • Test 2 : Synchronization FIFOs • SLB-T transmitted data are readout and verified in each sync FIFO (128 positions). • Test 3: Accumulators • SLB-T starts transmitting data, after several orbits the accumulator contents are verified. • The test is repeated for several threshold values. • Test 4 : Data alignment • Same as test 3 but with different channel delays. • Test 5 : Data transmission • Data transmitted by the SLB (1 LHC Orbit) are collected in the STC RAM and verified. • Test 6 : BER measurement • Data transmitted by the SLB are compared continuously by the STC (~12 hours). • If errors occur STC enters into an Error state and a resynchronization procedure is required.
SLB Production Tests • Test Prodution Results : • Stored in a XML files. • Organized by board Id & test Id. • Each entrie has an execution data, a test result (ok/error/ber), and a link to a log file. • One “history file” for each SLB. • Browsing Test Results : A Java script application allows: • Query test results by SLB id. • Retrieve modules with/without errors. • Test result statistics.
