15:34 Stopped Run 471. Requested access from MCC to fix the trigger for the cosmic telescope. Found trigger 11 used previously by UCSC and connected it to the outermost scintillator trigger port on the HSIO2 board(scintillator0).

16:03 Started Run 472 after access. Also, after coming back upstairs and changing the trigger settings in the cosmicGui we were able to read out data from the cosmic telescope. After analyzing the timing we found that the beam is split with two bc ~100 ns apart. We also see strange peaks on the timing graphs from pixels on the bottom of the modules that seem to readout twice as high as all the other pixels. It seems as if when it reads out for the second bc it gives the data for both bc rather than just the first.

16:36 Ended Run 472.

16:37 Started Run 473.

17:10 Ended Run 473.

17:11 Started Run 474.

17:44 Ended Run 474.

17:45 Started Run 475.

18:18 Ended Run 475.

18:19 Started Run 476.

18:40 Data taking stopped abruptly for both the cosmic telescope and the two RD53A modules. Couldn't ssh into computer downstairs that starts the TLU Producer. Shut off beam and requested access to see what happened to computer.
