  • Urgent: Using the full DAQ for module testing will significantly delay the full DAQ upgrade.   An alternative solution needs to be devised. 
    1. Can we use the old dev-boards?  How much re-work is needed?  We need to get a dev-board back at SLAC so Ben or Ryan can understand what rework is needed to get the old-dev boards working.  Cameron will ask Santa Cruz to take several pictures and send them to Ryan to compare against.  What board version is at SLAC? 
    2. Use PCI-e readout.  Ben estimates it will take ~1 week to get the PCI-e solution working. 
  • Use of PCI-e on the event builder host would allow us to avoid building the TI firmware on the DTM.  Operating this way, the only thing that would be required is to write firmware that receives the trigger clock and distributes.  This will require a respin of the RTM. The respin will require 1 week of layout and a few days of schematic. Need to understand the cost benefit. 
  • If we decide to stick with the current RTM, a new TI firmware needs to be written.  JJ will be doing this. 
  • Rogue needs to be installed on the full DAQ ASAP.  Ben will take the lead but Cameron and Omar can help when needed.
