XPD:
- A. Koch asks on the Beckhoff update: only hardware in tunnels will be updated and only Karabo software.
- J. Laksman says that during the Eastern beamtime at SQS a gas needle opened very fast and the pressure of chamber went very fast, posing a damage risk.
A Redmine ticket was placed for that it does not open too fast. An offline discussion will take place with EEE and CTRL.
DET:
- DSSC is back online at SCS after months of non-operation. There are issues to be fixed and investigations are in progress. The DSSC expert is on OCD this week and DOC can also help.
ITDM:
- Nothing to report.
- Marcin S. asks on the plan for limiting the raw data process per run in this current beamtime. SPB staff was told that they can't have more than 10 processes running;
K. Wrona informed this was talked to users and it was agreed with the limited number of 10. An offline discussion will take place and if more is needed this can be accommodated.
XRO:
- Nothing to report.
