Beamtime calibration suite

What	I/II	beam?	fixed/autoranged	AMI/offline?	metrics	analysis	notes
5 pedestals	both	no - be sure not	both	both	Compare offline to expectations. Compare makepeds bad pixels to expectations. Check switch point	documentation makepeds existing script or inspect	Jira to make n_bad_pixels visible
plain dark			fixed (both???)		check noise w/w/o common mode correction	existing script, documention
forced low dark			auto		compare pedestal level to expectation	documentation
charge injection	both	no	both	offline	check switchpoint	existing script	pre-beamtime presumably
Blunt autoranging test	both	intensity scan	auto	both	Look for negative pixels in AMI (calib) Look offline for negative pixels	existing script
Persistence check	both	yes	both	offline	Look at dropped shots	existing script	watch out for heating Ideally with features like rings
Intensity scans		yes	both	offline AMI-II	linearity in fixed modes hockey stick procedure (look for negative-going region etc.)		understand wave8
Masked xtalk check		yes	both?		Look at both illuminated and unilluminated regions		Pinhole or lead tape or disk with hole Need to steal masking procedure?
timing scan		yes	both	offline AMI-II		Xavier has something	Need DAQ script to change timing
Bias plateau		yes - steady	fixed	offline			take ten runs from 20-200 V
T sensitivity						reduce cooling	not a common test
Different DAQ rate	II						could repeat all the above... rare activity
Intensity monitor crosschecks						existing root script Kaz's scipts
Single-photon spectrum	both	low flux	fixed (mostly?)		reconstructed energy, width	existing messy offline suite	Need automated way to estimate n photons Scripts use a lot of root Some issues about cuts (one pixel? cluster energy?)
Geometry (AgBehe)							rare activity
