Please read these instructions before posting any event on Fermilab Indico
Indico will be down for maintenance on Wednesday, July 17th from 7-7:30 am.
dunedaq-2.8.0 / FW-2.0.0
Main objectives
- TPG chain
- Ethernet readout (only software for now)
Technical developments & future plans on Readout Subsystem.
Firmware (K. Manolopoulos)
Software (Florian and Roland)
Technical developments & future plans on TP specific firmware and software.
TP simulation and readout (I. Hristova)
- WIB2 DPR patterns fixed for Mattias' test of the 32b axis felix input to the data reception;
tests look fine and the wib1_wib2_testing branch will be merged to master
- generated binary file in the new RawWIBTp format with the variable number hit frames appended to the end of the packet
- now implementing overlays for the new format in readout package, will discuss with Florian questions related to the setup, build and testing
Technical developments & future plans
towards v2.8
Firmware:
- MAC from PROM merged into master
-- (Will require rarpd running in NP04. Bonnie has said she will handle this. Will probably take the opportunity to enable the "controlhub" reliability mechanism)
Software:
- RC integration in minidaqapp under intial test, can do wider testing next week will be possible from next week
- influxopmon package updated to deal structured data from timing modules
Testing campaign not started yet
general
Hardware:
- Testing new batch of FMCs
- Timing FMC shipped to CERN, will allow HSI setup at COLDBOX
Firmware:
- timing firmware port to Nexus Video FPGA board progressing
VD:
- still need to finalize arrangements for initial DTS - WR tests ( clock stability )
Integration status at:
- CERN
- Bristol
- UPenn
- ICEBERG
What has been done:
- Found working combination of atlas tDAQ felix software packages which is compatible with 12ch felixpie bitfiles and the PEXInit bitfile. (switched packetformat to the master branch from rm-5.0)
- tested daq_application with new software distribution and was able to record data (data source was internal FELIX emulator)
What needs to be done:
- discuss using coherent branches for rm-5.0 and changed for implementation of ipbus, then create new UPS product with all necessary changes.
