We took a cable at tunnel end labelled with a yellow tag "2" and tagged as "Sun server" which is connected via Belden patch panel channel 19 that emerged on central rack side connecting to the switch port 34 on the ESA-RESTRCTED side. This worked pretty easily to get on network but installing more software in situ was a real pain.

6:00 Continued conversation between Ben and Jan Dreyling to import pre-compiled images for the TLU related images for NI Windows system. It is unfortunately not just TLUPRoducer.exe but also a set of associated run time lib .dll together. An alternative option of running TLUProducer in YARR also under investigation which looks quite doable but .
8:00 MCC found the the ESA middle mesh gate latch lost which effectively lost the controlled area protection and MCC assembly team to search ESA to reestablish controlled access. This will take a few hours.
11:00 Controlled area reestablished and we can go for controlled access. Simone and Zach moved in HGTD setup to the back half of the telescope to run parasitically. HGTD sensor mounted immediately behind the 4th plane of Caladium (taped onto the Caladium plate). HGTD/UCSC scope is taking over 172.72.104.56 as its DUT DAQ IP.
11:30 Moved the TLU USB connection from NI to YARR computer and after local USB and other parameter adjustments, the Linux build TLUProducer came up and running on YARR.
12:00 Found long USB extension cable from SLAC electronics shop and hooked that up to YARR computer's wireless antenna for internet access.
1:15 Tried to align DUT and telescope with laser. The horizontal laser seems to be aiming many mm below the cross wire on the beam pipe exit window (but this was probably correct as the brief beam run yesterday position was here). Adjusted horizontal laser up aim at the beam exit window cross center (1st plane ~1mm above; 6th plane ~2mm below our to tilt). Moved whole telescope up by ~6-7mm with Y-coarse. The RD53A DUT Y-centroid is clearly 5mm above the EUDET MIMOSA center line. Used Y-fine to move DUT down by 5mm to line up with the telescope Y-center.
1:45 Ready for beam.
2:00 Beam coming through and we are running EUDAQ 1.7 ! with Caladium only. The beam is low in Y (Caladium is too high in Y). This confirms that the initial laser position aiming several mm below the beam pipe exit cross wire was actually deliberate and correct and telescope should not be adjusted up. Ke retuned the telescope Y position to recenter the beam spot.
