Data Monitoring
borderStylesolid

Crystal recon needs status bits to document failures, exceptional configurations, and exceptional status of the xtal energy and position reconstruction.  This work began with the July 2010 channel failure, but it has continued for Pass 8.  See ?Crystal Recon Design Description XtalRec for details.

- Recon needs to contain code to mitigate against electronic or optical failures in CAL.

See CAL July 2010 channel failure for a first example and its mitigation.  (info)  Note that this page is preserved for documentation only.  The Pass 8 definition and functionality of failure mitigation is defined in the ?Crystal Recon Design Description XtalRec page.

- I (Grove) have sent around a number of email messages about  ?CAL Data Monitoring. I've tried to collect them in confluence at [CAL Data Monitoring|CAL:CAL Data Monitoring] so they're more readily accessible in the future.

* Zach: Final stages of producing initial flight calibrations including crosstalk corrections, etc.
* Fred: Working on L&EO timeline for calibration. Redoing ion rate plots layer by layer
* Berrie: Berrie, David, Zach, Sasha working on adapting David's LAC calibration model for NomSciOps data - about done. Next is FLE
* Elliott: Yvonne needs to redo energy deposit study vs angle, energy with new MC (including LPM, etc)

06/17/2008
* Berrie points out that being able to "join" AFEE temps and other calibration information would be desirable. He will look into this @ SLAC
* Fred will submit sims to Zach's requirement to SLAC or Lyon pipeline
* Fred asks who is responsible for validating filter performance during L&EO? Fred will send a note to Richard Hughes and Eric Grove about this

** Suggestion that monitoring processes highlight new outliers
** In GCR monitoring, we need to determine correct tradeoff between peak width (i.e. more stringent cuts) and statistics (less stringent cuts)
** Sasha will be Zach's replacement as contact for threshold settings questions, deliveries, etc.
