8-pack control system working group Meeting Notes
30 September 2003
In attendance: R. Chestnut, K. Kim, J. Nelson, J. Rock, M. Ross, S. Smith, S. Tantawi
Note taker/typer: J. Nelson
Status Items:
MacNair Digitizer Support
Kukhee is almost
done. Maybe next week we can start
testing.
Trickle Down of Sled and
Phase Numbers
Coming soon. Kukhee will start working on this after the
MacNair digitizer support is finished.
He hopes this will be finished by the time we start testing.
PLC/EPICS
Judy reported that
database work is done. There’s still about
half a dozen panels left to do with a few hundred PVs. MCC Op Matt Boyes is helping out with this.
AB Purple Status
The EPICS timeout was
changed a week or so ago. Judy will
check cmlog to see if the frequency of the purple status has changed.
SLED/LD Databases/Panel Mods
(incl plots)
Judy repoted that all
displays are ready. Janice will scope
them out to make sure the specifications were sufficient, then we’re ready to
test in October.
Steve said the LLRF
enable buttons can be removed from the epics displays.
Hardware Deadman
We believe that the
software support for this is in place.
If the logic is not: deadman DIO bit is toggled at the processing rate
(~60Hz), Ron with email Steve and Joe.
Joe and Steve will work
on getting the hardware aspect working.
IQAs and PHITs
Steve reported we have
4 IQAs with another coming soon. We
need 6 for this phase of the project (loads on the roof)
When RF folks decide to
instrument the load reflected coupler ports (not just the forward as is the
case now), Steve will let SWE know which ADC/SIS/IQA channels will be used for
them.
PHITs are ready.
Peak Power Meters
Folks couldn’t
remember how many heads we have out there, were some sent for repair? Janice will ask NLCTA OPs to see if they
remember.
There are 4 PPM
channels on the dance floor now.
LLRF folks will bring
a PPM during the testing
Knobs for Controlling SLED Movers
Janice will work with
Sami to make a sum and a difference knob for these. (Janice also promised to show him how to get to the 8pack
processing loop panel.)
SLED/Phase trickle down
Processing loop with real
values
ADC readback & pwr
displays
SIS readback (I&Q,
A&P, calibrated waveforms, etc)
(longer term) Calibration
(LLRF) (matlab routines??)
RE/vac/proc loop/etc trips,
also diode SW reset
Check and test that all
interesting channels are being archived appropriately.
