Once you have the carrier hooked up, and the detector assembled, connected to the cooling system, power and fiber optics, you can power up the detector. For carrier evaluation, you do not need to connect timing fiber optics.
Once powered up, you will see the current consumption go to 1.7Amps, then go down to ~945mAmps when the FPGA is configured. Once the ASICs are configured, the current consumption will go up to 3.2Amps if all ASICs are available.

Remember to document your work for each of the carriers here. Make sure you specify the digital board used as well. The carrier identified is printed on the strong back while the digital board identifier is printed on the PCB.
