MPS meeting minutes – June 16th – 2022
Present:HH, RC, KL, AD, AL, MR, MA, SR, BH Meeting commenced: 10am PT Meeting adjourned:
MPS status
- LIC0 trouble shooting
- EMBD:LIC0 indicated red on "installed" status. Maybe module wasn't seated properly?
 - HH investigated this morning
 - It's fixed but unclear how this happened. Maybe during FLASH update
 - In future verify epics status after working on crate
 
 - The beam path restrictions are not really set up to make sure BLMs are running. Only checking HV for low-energy section
 - Can we implement this now for the medium and high-energy sections? Would this cause issues, when temporarily disabling detectors?
- Check seated status, Argon, HV, PMT current readback
 - Similar to optics ok, given set of detectors to be turned on. Maybe modification of the run permit
 - Work request
 - Amend document for seated status
 - Calibrations
 
 - Argon flow started yesterday
 - Keiko updated signal PV in the alarm handler and archiver for former ELBT:PMT1A now ELBT:LICSP1 (spare channel)
 
S1 to S2 delay
- the delay between stage 1 trip detection to stage 2
 - detect mode was fixed at 10us (plus some inherent delay through the FSD and timing system ~5us).
 - Delay is adjustable between 1us and 25us. Default is 10us.
 - Look for S2 trips. Log how many we get.
 - Brandon just started tuning and it tripped PMT1B causing S2. Dark current much higher?
 - EPICS indications for S1/S2 trips => Ricky to check what is indicated when at the moment and potentially adjust to avoid confusion
 - Maybe S1 and S2 LED.
 
FLASH
- anything since last week’s email?
 - Board modifications complete
 - Still need to update epics conversion factors
 - HH thinks the modified board will work for FLASH. Before I it can be install, Controls will need to change the conversion factors on
 
the EPICS screen. Basically all existing conversion need to be increased by 100.
- Rod to let HH know who will be make the changes and HH will email the “updated” user manual.
 - Ricky to update the conversion factors.
 - FLASH to run next week
 - new FLASH board has it been tested with a current source? HH checked in the lab.
 - Nothing was changed in the hall
 - Other board can be put back easily if needed. Reads 920 nA.
 
AOB
- Check if we can use EACA conditioning to test fibre. Check if yanyun is doing pulsed conditioning or cw.
