I've gone through the system tests histograms, comparing EM
v5r070305p2 to EM v5r0703p6 which we currently use in the pipeline.

Changes are understood - in particular fewer TKR triggers
(TriggerAlg) due to the trigger using dead strips and changes in the number of CAL triggers (TriggerAlg) due to it now using calibrated values.

In addition, tiny changes in a few TKR quantities for real data are consistent with EM v5r070305p3 using a different dead strips file than EM v5r0703p6 (for the same data run). I've asked Johann why he did the change in the calibration database. Anyway, it explains the system test differences I see.

There may be an small update to the SVAC ntuple tag I give here.
The tracker people want to piggyback on it again, this time for flare monitoring (flare in the tracker that is). It should be pretty orthogonal to our code. I will verify that as soon as the new tag is ready.

Will look at EM v5r070305p3 when the histograms are available later tonight. The only differences between p3 and p3 are ACD Veto thresholdof 0.1 MIP instead of 0.2 and a TKR filler fix for Fred.

EngineeringModel v5r070305p2

Short summary:

• Trigger (TriggerAlg) now uses dead strips in the tracker.
• Trigger (TriggerAlg) CAL uses calibrated values.
• ACD tiles now overlap in the correct direction.
• CalTuple now saves an entry for every event regardless of whether
  there is CAL data or not thus ensuring that it's synchronized with the
  other root files.
• Added AcdHit and AcdTkrPoca collections to AcdRecon.
• ACD Veto threshold set to 0.1 MIP to match settings in SVAC muon runs.
• New base GR release.
