  • Simona: Testing with the VTP-based SPE trigger
    • The VTP is looking at the channel 0, which is the LED trigger pulse, to form the trigger, and requires the pulse to be a certain number of samples wide (currently 6) and the threshold
    • The PMT signal can not be passed through a long cable due to timing with the trigger signal in the FADC. This leads to the PMT pulses being very narrow.
    • She has not done testing with the cosmic trigger yet, has been focused on the SPE data collection
    • Bob asks about the process for making more complicated VTP triggers
    • Kate (from W&M) will be helping with the pion detector cosmic trigger testing once the test stand is moved to the other space in the Test Lab
  • We asks about the analysis
    • Chandan recommends that we standardize on the same bank number for the FADC data in all our test stands.
  • Slow progress on getting the equipment moved to JLab for the W&M test stand set up but it is progressing
  • Simona asks if we could set up an index of the counting DAQ meetings to make it easier to find specific discussions
    • I will set up a starting point and then ask the group for the initial keywords
