• Updates
  • GEM
    • test APVs : 60 good APVs passed low level, need to take pedestal runs
    • talk to Florian for how signals are distributed on MPDs : 5 MPD for GEM, uRWell and uR Groove, 3 left fo additionnal detectors
    • need distribution board from SBS to gather signal on MPDs Ching-Him will look for them, Moller does not use them
    • talked with Xinzhan about pixel readout GEM : use APV but different spacing from existing GEM - would be good to make 1 and 2 APVs slot backplane
    • Huang will bring a detector - still waiting for GEM - only 1 GEM + Florian's detector
    • no update on LV : can ease boxes in EEL , 5V, MPOD can do 6V but need to check current
    • sent email to SRS for Hirose to panasonic -
    • asked to Dustin McNulty : 2 2xAPVs backplane we can loan - bring next time he is at the lab
    • HV : ESB - 2 GEM CAEN crates need board can check with Bill need up to 4 kV, MPOD one board can go to 6 kV - 8 channels - might need break up HV - Alex will try to set up a Lecroy
    • VMM : need 12 V supply - might have one in Testlab but not rad hard - check and maybe use for initial testing
    • CODA : config for GEM, need to set up optical connection - need to add transceiver and fiber
    • checked cable from SBS : cables are still hot

• Cerenkov
  • will try DB9 cable - will try to turn it on at some point
  • readout with FADC - need to check if still getting sum of PMTs

• MRPC
  • laptop setup for sampling electronics, cannot talk to boxes for now - maybe need firmware update
  • other channels readout with TDC, need to figure how to get signal out : NINO board or go to NIM electronics, will need to make adapter

• Timeline installation
  • all part to assemble detector support, Eric will put it together on Friday
  • need to decide when we go in the Hall - and check with Jerry and tech to make space and have installation
  • some cables need to be moved to Hall C -
  • bunker locations still need to be defined
  • layout HV cables
  • check rack space for crates
  • start to setup crates in Hall C
  • need optical fiber - need to get from Hall A
  • need to install new computer in Hall C - counting house

• BNC cables for FADC - basket of cables
  • use multiwire cables - ECAL available
