General Announcement:
- There were two power glitches last night observed at Desy which switched OFF some cooling water pumps. Please check your systems and let XO know if you were also affected.
- SEPS Interlock tests driven by RPOs with help from Maurizio V. and CTRL colleagues are now scheduled to take place on Monday 17.07 instead of tomorrow. 
This is because the required bunch patterns may not be provided by machine in due time this week. A tentative schedule for each instrument/SASE will be made in the coming day(s).
- Martin Doering mentions an e-mail was sent out to groups asking for the feedback on tasks that were postponed or cancelled. Please inform xo-planning if you have tasks in these situations.

- Steffen H. says starting today responsibility for the Data Acquisition services (Karabo devices and data group configuration) has been transferred from ITDM to CTRL. 
So CTRL will be the support contact together with DOC. A small task force develops the DAQ at CTRL. Please contact CTRL and Steffen H. in case of questions.

CTRL:
- Deploy Karabo beckoff loops due to some bugs at PLC side which affects communication at Karabo. Patch for Karabo was prepared and will be deployed today at 13:00 in SA1-2-3 the moving loops; downtime few 
minutes.
- Hardware intervention done by IT in replacing a mother board at SA3 which runns PLC loops. Takes longer (30 mins) to replace and restart Karabo. 

DA:
- Calibration team will migrate offline calibration to different nodes. No interruption of services. DET is informed.

EEE:
- Bug of PLC and work around by CTRL: bug was there before and now that makes issues (see CTRL).

bring servers up.
- Tobias C. also confirms TS sees the 8C water was affected (which is used for the 20C water). 

XRO:
- Nothing to report.

LAS:

CTRL:
- Misbehaving timing server at MID yesterday was initially solved by EEE. EEE replaced the hardware of the timing system itself but problem continued. 
System seems now to be healthy but from time to time there are small timing interruptions. Investigation is ongoing and will be discussed in the digitizer meeting of Data 
department.
- One CTRL ticket on Doocs device at SCS: it was a problem with custom installation. CTRL asks to be informed in case groups have custom installations. This may pose a 
risk when deploying new updates.

DA:
- AGIPD train-ID issue: a small workaround until shutdown is in place. One has to set the individual channel and seems to be now working. Next intervention to take place 
during Winter maintenance time.

EEE:
- Nothing else to report aside of the MID timing system.

VAC:
- Nothing to report.

XPD:
- SA3 XGM was switched to Ne as requested by instruments.

DET:
- Preparation for activities on AGIPD at SPB/SFX during the winter time is ongoing.

ITDM: 
- Pre-announcement: at the start of the maintenance, ITDM has activity on the computer cluster. A separate announcement will be sent.

XRO:
- Nothing to report.

LAS:
- Nothing to report.

UNSYS:
- Nothing to report.

SPB:
- No issues to report.
- Intervention date of AGIPD: SPB requires due to highest priority work that between 16/11-18/12 no interruptions of electrical power or the need of EQP may happen. 

FXE:
- Crosstalk SA1/SA3 was not seen yesterday as SQS used only 1 bunch.

MID:
- Nothing to add besides what CTRL and EEE have mentioned.

HED:
- Next week HED does not use X-ray beam: commissioning of the high power laser and test of pulse on demand are planned. A. Galler says it pulse on demand was fixed by 
CTRLs and can be used. 
- Question on use of ADCs: Bruno says some trains will not be recorder or be repeated. This may be related to the timing issue like in MID. 
But data can be acquired. It is under investigation accordingly to Bruno, with CTRL, DA, ITDM.

SCS:
- Not present.

SQS:
- Nothing to report.

HED:
- Not present.

SCS:
- In contact with EEE (Bernard) regarding the commissioning of our additional local box for the THz experiment.

SQS:
- Not present.

SXP:
- Nothing to report; backlash of M6 seems to be fine.
