Subject: Status and plans after SASE1/3 Readiness Meeting 

General

  • The focus of activities next week for the AE and vacuum groups is on getting as much done in XTD10 as possible. There is a conflict with the aim to bring AGIPD to SPB and start commissioning. A lot of preparatory work was done for the latter this week already. Nevertheless this conflict needs to be monitored carefully. There will be a daily stand up meeting at 11:30 in front of the MCR to monitor the ongoing work. The SASE1 displatch meetings on Monday and Wednesday at 09:30 are correspondingly cancelled

FXE

  • Philipp Lang reported on the status of the LPD commissioning. The detector is essentially ready to take data with 14 out of 16 super modules on the weekend. A few software issues remain but should not stop the activities.
  • FXE is working on commissioning their greateyes camera 
  • Loop 7 needed to be re-worked for the van Hamos spectrometer
  • Work is stil required for the Alio stage in the monochromater in XTD9. This will probably not be ready for first user operation.
  • During the shutdown week work will focus on getting the instrument laser hutch going with the Tangerine laser. After the XFEL beam is back, first pump-probe experiments should be possible
  • This afternoon radiation safety tests with 30 bunches and different materials shall take place

SPB

  • One SmarACT motor is now running. The problem was identified as a combination of a connection and a Karabo issue
  • The next step is to reconnect the remaining motors correctly and then all SmarACT motors should be operational (The firmware is set up for all)
  • Updates need to be done for loop 5 (AGIPD chiller) and loop 7 (interlock). Since this can only be done after 1500 once the sample chamber is vented, this work was postponed to Monday
  • SPB also provided an updated priority list to AE in order to fine tune the remaining work until user operation 

Detectors

  • Moving AGIPD will start early on Monday and the detector shall arrive in SPB around lunch time
  • Immediate works shall be mechanical, connection of vacuum, chillers, power and cooling. 
  • A. Sztuk points out that the integration plan from SPB is very optimistic

Tunnels

  • The goal of next week is to get the vacuum and the imagers into the PLC and eventually KARABO controls
  • Detailed schedule planning was unfortunately stopped yesterday due to the fire next door but will be done today
  • There is a scheduled power outage next week in the tunnels. Here is the respective email with information.
  • The problem with the fast valves in SASE1 (spurious trips of the interlock) has not re-occured after the controllers were exchanged. They have been sent to the manufacturer

Laser

  • Progress was set back last week due to un-announced work on the 11 C cooling circuit. This necessitated a re-alignment of the lasers
  • Otherwise commissioning work in SASE1 is progressing

Electronics

  • The points discussed are included with the affected groups

Software

  • The storage for images from the cameras in the tunnels was changed due to a disk space crisis. Currently 150TB are available. This should be enough for some time
  • CAS support for XTD10 work is need only after Thursday next week once the PLC work is done
  • Karabo 2.1.14 was released. Currently 2.1.13 is deployed.
  • Currently the data from LPD cannot be archived. Work on this topic was stopped yesterday due to the fire. Should happend today
