Schedule

Mon May/21: Installation of EUDAQ 1.7, which last chance to test inside tunnel.

Tue May/22: Caladium to be removed from tunnel due to invasive beam experiment before us.  

       May/23-28: Caladium parked inside ESA outside beamline but powered on and connected to allow continued new DUT software integration.

Tue May/29: Caladium reinstallation in beamline. New user in person training. DUT setup can start

Wed May/30: DUT installation and integration. Potential first beam. 

        May/31-Jun/5: Formal run period. 

Tue Jun/5:  Beam off at 9am.  

Event Log

May/7  

Test period formally allocated for May/31-Jun/4, which is the very last period before LCLS beam summer shutdown (until Sep/2018) to give as much time as possible to prepare the setup for the RD53A module. 3 other experiments are scheduled before us and some of them are rather invasive so that the Caladium telescope will be removed from the tunnel which we have to reinstall just before our period.       

May/9

The experiment before our session will end on Monday May/28 so that dismantling that experiment and moving Caladium back into beam line may already start on at least Tuesday May/29. So we need to be prepared to jump on setup in ESA for Tuesday May/29 already. For regular run periods, Wednesday is normally off for machine development but for this last period of the LCLS Run 16, there is no MD so that we may potentially have ESTB beam already for Wednesday May/31. The whole session ends on Tuesday Jun/5 at 9am.     

May/21

Ben is building EUDET 1.7 release on ar-eudaq. It needs various associated software utility updates, such as gcc.

/home/tfuser/data space on ar-eudaq is effectively a new directory but inherited the same runnumber series. Older data (taken with 1.5-dev release) are moved to /home/tfuser/data_before_May2018. A new test data directory is created as /home/tfuser/test_root to hold the prompt offline processed data such as test root files which also has a before_May2018 subdirectory for older test files.
