• Si-Mono in XTD6 has been aligned with the cristals parallel to the beam but two issues were found: 1 - On of the movements is at ist limit and needs to be fixed. ZZ today (VAC+OPT support). 2 - One motor in Mono2 that does not work. Has to be checked (AE).
• XGM/Pulse picker alignment has to be checked with beam. AE will come back to HED today.

• Info was sent to the GLs concernig the use of the Maxwell cluster for users. These seemed not to be propagatet to the users since support was requested to IDTM concerning this specific issue. This is also the case for the detector calibration pipeline. These info should be proprly distributed in the future.

• HED reported as an info to CAS that yesterday karabo was very slow for 2 hrs (10 seconds to push a button...) but it recovered by itself. Will be looked into... 

​AoB

SPB/SFX

• No major issues reported
• Motors in Loop 14 have been tested and problems with the motion sign and encoder were found. AE/EET on it.

FXE

​SQS

• Issue with digitizers not working was found this morning and was reported solved during the meeting by CAS.
• 2 CRDs for the pn CCDs are coming. Once they are there it has to be seen how to schedule the design, production of PLCs, as well as of cables.

SCS

MID

• It is reported by CY that, in order to advance with the Epix readiness, would be beneficial if AE and EETF could accelerate the power system work BKF 467 crate completion (with Bernard's latest change request) plus patch-panel planning Eplan update this would be much appreciated. MFlade reports the request to his group.
• Issues with Smaract stages cables. Fixed.

​HED

• Si mono in XTD6 had problems with the pitch motor whoch does not work anymore. XTD6 was opened yesterday for intervention and the system was pumping overninght. Interlock modified not to stop operation during the night for MID. This morning ZZ foreseen to complete the intervention.
• Firmware for Loops 5 and 7 ready. KS/EET are checking whether all the cables for loop 5 have been installed. When they are, AE will be notified to switch on the loop. Same for loop 7. After the meetgin with compkany Schulz it was said that all the priority 1 cables (set by HED) will be installed by 05.04.
• XGM/Pulse picker alignment has to be checked. On monday AE will have a look.

• GW asks the intruments to check the shutdown planning, especially for the cases in which the instruments are requested as support groups (MPS?). If there a re problems or something does not make sense, please notify PSPO.

SPB/SFX

• CRL implementation in the hutch will happen in April. AE and EET involved. ==> ZA needs the documentation of the CRL. The point is SRP to be able to evaluate the focusing properties to give beam permission after installation. TH will ask directly PVagovic. Still pending since PV is not here.
• AGIPD motion. Prelminary tests are being performed to be ready for the final tests in the march shutdown. Still planned.

​FXE

SQS

SCS

• When operating the machine in the train pattern (not  10 Hz) mode and pulse on demand mode the data from the XGMs in XTD10 and SCS is not recorded. ==> That's still the case and it is caused by a Doocs update not agreed with CAS.

MID

• Issue with the remote control of the ion pumps.MID OPT now ok. MID exp being implemented (waiting for some HW + Support from CY). Basically understood. Will be implemented in agreement with the instrument (requires access + fixed cables)
• Smaract stages do not work propery and reliably. High priority. Has to be clarified with AE since it is not clear whether this is the same issue that SCS had and for whoch they developed a workaround.

​HED

• Cables for the experiment hutch are being installed but some quality issues occured. Last pallets of cables have been sent back for proper confectioning. It is possible that there will be some delays. KA will discuss with LW how to prioritize cables to eventually minimize the impact on the commissioning. ==> Quality issues are being addressed. The company increased the manpower for cable confectioning and installation. KS prepared a list of priorities. AE informs that they will be probably able only to provide fw for loops 5 and 7 by the end of March (collision with many shutdown activities). PG will send details to KA. This will eventually require a decision concerning priorities.  Ongoing. ==> There will be a dedicated meeting after this one to discuss the details, coordinate the process (Cables/fw export/ Loops start).
• CRL2 in XTD6 - issue with motors losing steps. Will be fixed in the March shutdown. ==> L. Batchelor
• DAQ is ready. Data sources list has been sent to CAS. Will be also sent to ITDM for implementation.==> Status not clear
• For the fixing of the mono's Picomotor, XTD6 will be opened tomorrow and on friday during the day. On the evenings the tunnel will be searched and closed again to allow beam in MID.

​OPT Lasers

• Modules for the time stamp have to be installed by AE. How long does it take? Will be discussed offiline with PG. ==> Installation dates: SASE1 in summer shutdown,  SASE3 being worked out, SASE2 will follow. Workaround with time stamp is being investigated.

• Data Correlation issue test between MCP detector and XGM - PG: Workplan has been made. Additional tests needed and have to be planned with beam. ==> Beamtime will be requested by JG.

• 2.3.7. Hotfix available today (pipieline in middle layer devices has been optimized). To be decided by the instr. whether to install it or not. Recommended.
• HED kick off meeting for preparation for users has to happen.
• XGMs: DOOCS was updated without agreement with CAS and this lead to problems with the controls. In this condition CAS can give only limited support , because they do not know excactly what was deployed and whoch tests were done. In general, this goes against the good practice rule of not updating stuff during the beamtime.

SRP

• The self rescue training is supposed to become part of the access requirement in the DACHS system for the tunnel. This caused a lot of concerns during the meeting (visitors? Access to components only in the very firrt part of the tunnel ). PSPO will discuss with SRP .==> SRP is trying to find a way to minimize the impact of this training on the XFEL employees. Discussion with DESY needed. ==> The implementation date is the 01.05. The legal requirements are quite strict. SRP is trying to find a solution with DESY (proper training every 3 yrs + yearly updates? to be seen). Advice from SRP is to get the training. SScherz can support booking the trainings.
• HED Radiation interlock issues: no agreement yet to get beam permission. Another meeting is planned for tomorrow (SRP chairs).==> Solved
• EUPs: Procedures for the electrical safety trainings and appointments are being clarified (UB, TH, WUS) ==> 2 training per week (in german) are planned for KW 13,14,15. SRP and TS will approach the GLeaders to decide who has to take the trainig first in the different groups. PGessler and SHauff point out that it is not clear whether the policy is olready in place or not. THaas mentioned that we are still in the transition phase and a presentation was given in thre STGL meeting and it was responsibility of the GLs to inform the group members. TH will send AV the material that will be circulated to the readiness mailing list and  in this elog ElectricalSafety.pdf​.

AE would like to get as many info as possible in advance to start preparing the loop update. According to MDommach NJardon is supposed to be already in the loop. ==> Concept in written has not yet been communicated to SRP and AE. ZA will talk to HS. ==> HW is installed.
