127
* In Fpi-2 it drifted with TDC temperature and needed to be adjusted on a run-by-run basis to within 200 ps.
128 54 Richard Trotta
* Initial checks so far indicate the peak is stable. Cointime resolution will be poorer in fall 2018 run due to DAQ cabling issue. Mark has partial software fix that we need to be sure is implemented.

h3. FULL REPLAY 1 of data, with new calibrations _%{background:yellow}Mid to Late August 2020%_
156 64 Richard Trotta
157 56 Richard Trotta
* This replay should include all new kinematic offsets, better timing and PID calibrations, as well as Mark's most recent HMS and SHMS matrix elements.
158
* Quality control rechecks with new replay:
159
** carbon luminosity scans are flat vs. current and rate
160
** LH2 luminosity scans are flat vs. current and rate
161
* HMS saturation corrections?
162
* Final investigation of SHMS acceptance, optimize acceptance cuts based on sieve-slit run analysis, agreement with single-arm MC. 
163
** Compare data and simulation plots of SHMS yfp,ypfp for various ytar,delta bins to identify inconsistencies.
164
* Trigger blocking studies.
165
** Are extra factors needed to correct for missing FADC reference times, or any other DAQ related effects?  Initial info from Peter Bosted indicates this is likely to be the case.
166
* Recheck Heep singles and coin yields to identify and fix problems.
167 1 Richard Trotta
* Stability checks.  Need some scripts to look at invariant mass vs run number, etc., for pi+/K+/p channels.
