dunedaq-2.8.0 / FW-2.0.0
Main objectives
- TPG chain
- Ethernet readout (only software for now)
Software based TPG ported to dunedaq readout:
https://github.com/DUNE-DAQ/readout/tree/swtpg-port
Unfortunately after 2 superchunks processed, the TPG doesn't produce more hits. To be investigated.
Technical developments & future plans
Need to confirm firmware+hardware combinations do we need to support on what timescale
COLDBOX (+HSI) with existing timing hardware
uTCA FIB+AFC August/September (?)
Technical developments & future plans on Readout Subsystem.

Technical developments & future plans on TP specific firmware and software.
Integration status at:
- CERN
- Bristol
- UPenn
- ICEBERG
Bristol Test Stand:
What has been done:
- Tried readout from the FELIX using the internal FELIX emulator as a data source, found that dataflow was not starting (using daq_application and app_confgen.py in flxlibs). Tested at both the Bristol test stand and np04, both giving the same result
To do tasks are:
- try readout from the FELIX using pexinit firmware and pure 2.6.0 i.e. felix v1_1_1, keeping emulator the same
- try readout from the FELIX using the ZCU102 as a data source
- testing and recording waveforms with the ILA debug design.
- testing the hit-finder release on zcu102 ( release expected end of the week.)
- Verification and validation proposal/document ( under preparation)
