      ND upstream 20m
      Speakers: Krzysztof Furman (Queen Mary University of London), William Panduro Vazquez

      - Unit test of ZMQ link using our plugin is now fully operational thanks to some amazing efforts from Will. Unit test development can now be paused and branch merged into develop.

      Next steps:

      - Will to set up grafana and produce some pretty plots from it

      - Krzysztof to look into integration tests (need to get input from Alex)

      - Krzysztof to build raw TCP (STREAM) python generator and receiver on par (feature-wise) with what is offered by current python script for PACMAN (including Alex's contributions)

      - Later on adding/testing support for many ZMQ links

      ND Data selection and opmon 20m
      Speaker: Alexander Booth (Queen Mary University of London)

      - ND DAQ: All PRs reviewed by Kurt B and now merged into develop. So ND dataselection by timing trigger is now possible from develop.

      - FD DAQ: Chatted with Phil about the easiest way to develop horizontal muon trigger. Set up all template classes, added plugin etc. Hoping to devote full day to this today.

      - Adapt the SumADC algorithm to keep track of the number of collection plane channels in a time window (instead of / in addition to the SumADC).

      - Have a list of channels (channel map) that it is possible to register a hit on, and just have a boolean switch for each one, on or off.

      - First order - trigger if some fraction of the total channels have hits.

      - Second order - check for adjacency.

      - Potentially only a couple of days work - plan to show some plots in the FD DS meeting on Tuesday.
