• Dispatch meetings shall move to a Mo/Wed 13:00 schedule starting next Wedneday 6 Dec

Instruments

• FXE:
  • Scantool was successfully used to establish overlap with laser beam (Tangerine) 
  • Some problems with slow DAQ in particular also for tunnel components
  • Comment from ITDM: There are known issues with the slow data acquisiton. A new version exists that was intentionally not deployed before the end of UOP
• SPB
  • Just finished first shift of laser user experiment
  • No big problems
  • All goals in the optimistic schedule were achieved

Tunnels

• Currently preparing for the shutdown
• Sticking condition of mirror bender could be reproduced in the lab
• WP74 just installed the last missing pieces in XTD1

Laser

• Running
• temporal and spatial overlap with beam is achieved
• But now instruments do not intend to use the PP laser for the last experiment

Detectors

• Both detectors are working
• The DAQ for slow data is crashing occasionally
• Gotthard is fully operational but there problems getting the data out. Help from PSI is needed

AE

• No problems

ITDM

• No problems

CAS

• CAS-XPD Running:
  • We will finish next Monday
  • We have been addressing issues related to MCP, Karabo-DAQ, Cameras, and K-Mono
  • Deploy K-mono today
  • Review DAQ Groups in Karabo: Cyril (interface to ITDM), Liubov, Koch
  • Gotthard we have to address in a separate and more systematic discussion: trigger, operation, calibration...
• XGM memleak - we already have a fix to get it stable but have to check when we will be able to upgrade (only device).
• Internal discussion about CAS/Karabo priorities for the winter shutdown
