      CCM

      Current running

      • Update to electronic logbook access in nanorc

      Run control

      • FSM sequences (multiple transitions in one go)
      • eLisa integration 
      • Usability requests need to be prioritised for release (done?)
      • GUI work (from 1st July)

      Configuration

      • Support of OKS integration

      Monitoring

      • Review of the Opmon API by Roland and Eric
      • Various dashboard housekeeping items

      Trigger

      • New MLT feature: allowing different readout windows for different detector types (TPC, PDS, CRT etc).
      • New MLT feature: option to discard TriggerCandidates that overlap with already-made TriggerDecision (e.g. pileup)
      • Ongoing TPG tests: StandardThreshold algorithm allows for lower ADC thresholds than StandardRS on the np04 computing resources.
      • Ongoing comparisons of tpg algorithms.

       

      Timing

      Hardware:

      • FIB v2 ( pre-production ) boards due in Bristol 20/July (couple of day's delay due to BoM error. Some rework in house will be needed)
      • MIB v3 (pre-production ) design finished. Waiting for completion of MIB v2 debugging before manufacture (some h/ware bugs discovered in process of debugging MMC, want to check there aren't any more)
        • I2C link between crate controller and module management uController established. MIB MMC can negotiate with MCH/PSUs. ---> No longer need external PSU to power MIB in crate. Temperature/Current/Voltage sensors being commissioned.
      • Request for quotes for "DUNE variant" AFCs sent out. No reply from Creotech yet. three "decline to quote".
      • "VD TDE" design uTCA crate due in Bristol ~ end of July

      ProtoDUNE:

      • Clock/timestamp being received by all readout/calibration units on NP04
      • Return path working on CALCI , CTB and DAPHNE
        • SSP return path not working. WIBs need updated f/ware
        • Running "endpoint monitoring service" with subset of endpoints.
      • No "show stopping" issues reported so far.....
      • Restarted 10MHz/1PPS to VD TDE. E-mailed Dario requesting check. No reply yet.
      • On site hardware support schedule almost final. Setting up "expert on call" (CERN)Phone line in progress.
      • For NP02 we will use splitters with ST (rather than LC connectors) to avoid continual problems with UPC fibres being plugged into APC splitters.

      Firmware:

      • Debugging GIB f/ware restarting (IRIG time stamp setting)

      DUNEDAQ:

      • Porting to OKS continues ( Work on 5.x release)
