Subject: Status and plans after 09:30 meeting 

General

  • ​More or less continuous beam delivery over the weekend
  • Beam was lost 2 times. Took almost 2h to recover in the second case
  • The stability of the machine was poor. 
  • SPB cannot achieve a good focus and FXE reports sync problems as the timining jumps by 220ns (1 bucket) from train to train

SPB

  • Liquid jet could be operated with water for an entire shift
  • Images were acquired both with powder samples as well as with the water jet
  • A lot of flat field data was taken for AGIPD calibration
  • One camera had a problem and CAS was called in
  • There is unexpected behaviour with limit switches. Suspicion from CAS: A SW flag might be incorrectly set. A. Silenzi and B. Weinhausen will investigate)

FXE

  • As stated above, the timing jumps in machine operation render pump-probe experiments impossible. A way out might be 4.5MHz operation which has other issues
  • Need a lot more experience with the new scan tool
  • Request is made for training on the configurator tool: ITDM reports that they have set up a script to set the many parameters from stored values
  • There is a fundamental problem that the scan tools does not see some parameters available in DOOCs. Hence scanning is not really possible right now.

AE

  • There are at least two arms in the XTD2 CRL in error. This requires access. Possibly bundle with the ZZ request of W. Freund
  • Two loops in SPB still require update (loops5/12)
  • It is not clear why many configuration parameters have to be put back by hand after a loop update. N. Jardon and B. Weinhausen will check

ITDM

  • Many tests over the weekend for DAQ of slow data with SPB
  • Problems were observed because train IDs were zero
  • Also time stamps showed values of many hundred hours ago
  • CAS suspects that this might be due to wrong configuration of some devices (use_timeserver flag)
