• Bryan reports that he has a CODA readout list for the MOLLER ADC and has tested it connected to a TI. It uses a 0mq connection on the MOLLER ADC feeding data to a ROC on the Linux server.
  • He is also updating the TI library to support multiple TIs in a crate to support a test Michael was doing
  • The next step for the ADC is to get the readout list on the ROC on the integrating ADC. He has had both pieces working independently and needs to merge them together.
  • William has a firmware version that should allow the TI signal to be used as the integration start signal
• Brynne and Paul will follow up next week about getting the integrating ADC set up in the W&M test stand
• Michael has just received 10 of the production ADC boards. Testing will begin next week. If they check out then they could be
  • One of them will go to Bryerton to test the rev2 firmware support
• Bob says that we expect the ADC chassis in December
• Paul has received network switch suggestions for both the SFP and PoE++ from Brent Morris; Paul will follow up by email with Michael to verify these look like what we expect to need from the ADC perspective
• Michael has had some email exchanges with Bryerton; he has been on travel for his new job, but he should be available to work on the ADC for most of the end of this year. Michael hopes that most of the firmware work can be finished over the next couple of weeks
• Arindam reports on the W&M test stand
  • The 8 scintillator paddles have been installed on the frame
  • They have taken some data using a scintillator pair trigger
  • Bryan says that what has been loaded on the FADC250s is the default Hall B version of the firmware
  • We have a SD card installed in the crate; Bryan says that he thinks our ROL is set up to properly configure and use it.
• Dustin is continuing to use the integrating ADC in streaming mode to test the ShowerMax detectors
  • Bryan asks to get a copy of the firmware that they are using; they will follow up with him by email.
