SPB:
- Issue with calibration pipeline with AGIPD is under investigation (performance of the pipeline is not the expected one). P. Schmidt says that used calibration can not be fully supported on the weekend so 
a fix can't be delivered in short time. In such cases it is better to use the old version.
- K. Wrona say one can plan for the maximum expected of acquired data but needs to have full resources for it. The current week was an exception. If one needs similar conditions like the current week it is 
a big challenge. 
- M. Sikorski completes that about 2-3 weeks before they can have an idea of how much data will be generated.

- Nothing to report.

LAS:
- Nothing to report.

UNSYS:
- Planned access to exchange motor of PS21/SA3 this morning.

SPB:
- AGIPD data issues were seen and is in contact to DET and DOC. Issue relates to memory modules not sending data from time to time. Jolanta S.-D. says it can happen for 1-2 modules a train may miss and the 
DAQ will discard the data. 
This is not unusual and one has to look at the frequency which happens - there is nothing wrong with Detector; data looks as usual. Further discussions will take place.

FXE:
- Nothing to report. User beamtime seems to have run well.

MID:
- Restriction of priorities: MID jobs went through. Experiment jobs have priority and for this week one has to put back in priorities.

VAC:
- No issues to report.

XPD:
- This week XPD will measure at HED with the calorimeter.
- XPD needs confirmation from MID if Diamond detector was used at MID.

DET:
- Few OCD calls related to the AGIPD operation support.

ITDM: 
- The MID issue seems not be linked to migration in a first analysis. It may relate with calibration. Queue was busy as many experiments taking data simultaneously. 
By the other side, there were no indications of calibration being used. Today the migration was running normally.

XRO:
- Nothing to report.

LAS:
- Not present.

UNSYS:
- Another Phase shifter (SA3/cell20) presented a problem like the cell17. Waiting for getting access to fix and investigate the encoders. ZZ is scheduled for this morning.

- Issue concerning AGIPD cooling system at MID being not very effective: there is ice formation which stopped the flow of water. This already happened once but it is not so often. 
Fix consists in flushing with dry air. Later today Detector will be running again. 

ITDM: 
- Fire incident yesterday on the labs (ITDM/EEE) was caused by a broken cooling system; the lab cooling water did not work for hours and let to problems with GPFS system in the lab as well as with servers 
(same type of racks as the ones in the rack room). 
- ITDM suggests the handling of such alarms have to be improved.

XRO:
- Nothing to report.

LAS:
- Nothing to report.

UNSYS:
- Issues with SA3/cell17: Phase shifter can not move. After rebooting PLC system one had to power cycle leading to lose half the SA3 undulator system.

UNSYS:
- Issue with mono in cell 18 / SA2 self-seeding: Encoder for the y-motor is found to be damaged. UNSYS tried to fix it during several hours ZZ but was unsuccessful. Encoder is damage for the y station. 
Later a solution with stepper without feedback (only image) was put in place and this managed to insert crystal in the proper position. 
- Probably re-writing software to switch from encoder to image feedback may be a solution. The full fix need to open the vacuum chamber. 
It is not sure if this action will take place during winter shutdown. This taks will be included in ME list and involves several groups.

SPB:
- Nothing to report.

FXE:

General Announcement:
- An e-mail was sent to "xo-info" mailing list concerning the cooling water maintenance scheduled for one week starting on Dec. 6th. 
More information will be sent by the end of this week and if you have any concerns, please contact us at xo-planning@xfel.eu.

CTRL:
- Shimadzu camera at SPB to be followed up; Also, the pop-up motor at HED needs a feedback.
- Related to DRC: on Friday SQS was using the bunch patter server and the machine server was going back to zero pulses. Cause was another Karabo device at SCS topic which was working / forgotten and was 
setting bunches to zero. 
Important is that none was knowing this was running. Follow up with XO for new procedures.

DA:
- Nothing major to report.

EEE:
- PLC side: backlash 2 step compensation successfully tested.
- Cabling at FXE had some troubles and today there will be a recheck.

VAC:
- Friday incident with Interlock on SA3 (faulty gauge at GATT): reason is known and was communicated to the involved parts. Long term plan to mitigate is in place.

XPD:
- Involved at high energy tests in SA1 and SA2; SA1 worked well delivering beam at SPB; SA2 had 300uJ in XTD1 but a high intensity at HED was not achieved. On Sunday HED colleagues did some tests; 
Calorimeter did not see beam.
- Imagers YAG imagers could see the beam at the end of HED station. YAG is not too bad at these high energies (only factor 2x less). Diamond is not suitable as one needs to integrate lot of pulses to get 
signal.
- Upgrade on Imagers together with Andrea Parenti is already concluded, tested and shall be working fine. Some Karabo devices had to be restarted in SA1, SA2 and SA3. In case of issue, please contact 
Andrea Parenti.

DET:
- DSSC activities with DEPFET ladder measurements at SQS went well; happy with acquired data.

ITDM: 
- Nothing to report.

XRO:
- SA1 re-alignment of mirror was not immediately possible and therefore done in several attempts. Started from none position but went well at the end. 
- In SA2 re-alignment was not possible (settings of mirrors not ideal and therefore drop of beam intensity); In future a second attempt shall be made with the lessons learned. In SA1 went well.
- SA3 activities went well without problems.

LAS:
- From SQS high energy fluctuations were seen at PP-L and fixed after switching to another setting.

- Nothing to report.

DA:
- On the mention of offline calibration being slow: DA reminds to call the DOC as soon as the issue occurs. It is hard to find root causes at a later time.

EEE:
- Issue with SCS Scannery: solved during the weekend and follow up further;
- Coax cable installation in FXE to start from this Tuesday 19.10.

VAC:
- Nothing to report.

XPD:
- No issues to report; This week XPD is involved at Hard X-rays activities with 24keV in SA1 and >30keV in SA2.

DET:
- Nothing to report.

SPB:
- Observed beam drift of up to 2mm on the 17.10; Theo M. confirms that horizontal direction moved up to 7mm at the XGM.

FXE:
- Nothing to add.

MID:
- All fine at MID; successful user beam time; Issues with Laser being helped during the weekend.

HED:
- Agipd-mini half back to HED; checked with DAQ; tests during this week.
- Also calibration for the single shot operation this week (Single shot with Agipd; picking only trains that have signal).
- Weekend to get 30keV beam: Zuzana K. is the main contact for communication and planning. 

SCS:
- Scanner-y issues: it does not run stable (not allowing to be used in automated motion); Beamtime successful.
