General Announcement:
- Exceptionally next Friday the XO Intergration Meeting will not take place. The meeting will resume next Monday.
Please send us an e-mail to xo@xfel.eu in case of any issue.
- Details on the Interlock Tests:
1. D3/SRP has the responsibility to carry on the tests;
2. TS and XO (communication) are supporting groups;
3. There is no rehearsal date;
4. Tests on the Instruments/SASE wll take place on July 1st, 2nd and 3rd (reserve date);
5. Access to the instruments and optics hutches is forbidden;
6. Access to the laser rooms are not restricted, apart from the HED laser which needs clarification;
7. Emergency off will be disabled on July 1st at 08:00AM. As soon as the emergency offs are tested, they can be enabled again;
8. The participating EuXFEL Radiation Protection Officer can inform the instruments as soon as tests are ready with the respective SASEs for resuming access and work.
- Maurizio V. and Nerea J. mention that an EPS check must be scheduled prior beam delivery. XO will check with Zunaira/SRP on its status.
- Suren K. points the PKG in SA3 undulators is still switched off. TS shall switch it on prior tunnel closure.
- Suren K. asks on tunnel access for next weekend. XO states tunnels will be put in Interlock tomorrow (June 25th) and shall remain interlocked until the next shutdown.
Access to XTD6, XTD9 and (maybe) XTD10 can be done for few days after the interlock tests. Access to all other tunnels must be via ZZ.
Tunnels will not be open for the weekend. (after the meeting DESY/MXL confirms this procedure).
CTRL:
- Nothing to report.
DA:
- Working on small requirements with the instruments.
EEE:

Cabling works ongoing with DESY-MPS which connect MID to PPS.
VAC:
- Closing the activities - SA1 VAC signals are OK.
XPD:
- Nothing to report.
DET:
- XO asks for an status on the MID/AGIPD train-ID issue from last Monday. S. Aplin and K. Wrona say it has to be further investigated as is not clear where the problem
lays.
The DAQ gets data from AGIPB, DOOCS, Karabo, labelled with train-ID and the labeling have to be checked for consistence. This is not a new issue and has to be addressed
in the frame of data reduction.
- A clear independent signal has to be also checked. P. Gessler says it is needed to get various patterns for a complete understanding. A clear strategy to develop and
address has to be made.
- S. Aplin will overlook the efforts among different groups.
ITDM:
- DAQ installations: this morning a fix for big detectors is done; after leaving DAQ for longtime there are some issues that will be fixed next week.

Frederik Wolff-Fabris | General | Information | Notes XO Integration Meeting 24.04.2020 |
Relaxation control network:
- CTRL and XO remind the groups to submit the planned activities on e.g. scenes, projects, until Fridays.
- For next week case: please limit any hardware change. Reason is the current limitation on the physical presence of staff.
Groups will support only emergency and priority tasks. From May 4th the situation will be different.
- However, we do not want to stop any progress on activities. This also includes work on Karabo that affects critical work like VAC in tunnels.
Tunnel access for the coming weeks:
- A scheduling plan will be made due to the restrictions of allowed people working on tunnel at the same time.
Plan will be made in order to respect safety rules and minimize number of people working in tunnels.
- Tunnel access will be a first agenda point from next week.
General:
- For next meetings, we will continue with the small report from the support and instrument groups.
- Tasks to happen in the hutches are decided by the groups. XO/PMO plan tasks in tunnels.
- We encourage groups to start as earlier as May 4th the tasks which were originally planned to be conducted during the summer shutdown.
If it needs tunnel access, then one must respect the coming schedule.
- XO is looking together with Desy on all tunnel activities. A schedule is being prepared and will be communicated to the groups as soon as possible.
- In case of delay of activities due to e.g. excess of people in tunnel, prioritization will be made together with XO and Desy. |

General Announcement:
-
CTRL:
- In SA2/HED few interlocks are protected and not altered. CTRL needs to re-start the HEDloop1 and HEDcryo loop and SA2 EPS loop. It takes about 5-10 minutes without PLC
restart.
Suggestion is to make it today: XO will communicate to HED.
- When submitting a ticket, please include the device ID on it.
DA:
- Not present due to training.
EEE:
- Nothing to report.
VAC:
- Nothing to report.
XPD:
- Nothing to report.
DET:
- Problem with SPB Jungfrau: M. Sikorski says the chiller was OFF and two modules are misbehaving. One can’t be fixed now and cards are ordered and have to be replaced.
The Chiller went OFF manually. It may become protected by EPS.
ITDM:
- Nothing to report.
XRO:
- Not present.
LAS:
- SA1 and SA2 PP-lasers are fine;
- In SA3 still ongoing due to small problem of missing train-IDs in ADC cards. Consequently, no DAQ data can be taken for SCS and SQS.
Nevertheless, the laser is ready for SCS use (not yet available to SQS).
UNSYS:
- ZZ for the cell36/SA1 took place on Monday. The problem related to a coupler (spare parts are available and were replaced). It is fixed.
SPB:
- Start with data collection. Aside from detector, no other issues.
FXE:
- Nothing to report.
MID:
- All fine.
HED:
- Not present.
SCS:
- A problem was found on Monday regarding the door interlock.
Zunaira A. comments that during a hutch search training it was found that a switch off (red button /panic switch) was pressed and did not release the magnet locks.
SRP has contacted a company and they have to come in to fix it.
Zunaira A. sends another instruction to SCS staff in how to proceed in case of emergencies (one has to open door manually).
SQS:
- Nothing to report. Panic button at SQS works normally. |
