TO DO

When Detector Head Arrives from LBL

1. Ring out untested power cable to clock module.

   The power goes through vacuum cables that are part of the detector head.

2. Power spare clock module with power cables and test communications with Computer Interface Node (CIN) in ATCA.

   This will verify that CIN is working and test all of the clock module cables without endangering the detector.

3. Install Immersion chiller probe on detector head.

  We found out today that this will require some tools, which are now on order

4. Wire up equipment protection interlock and test it out

  This prevents the detector from overheating and prevents the chiller from turning on if there is no vacuum

5. Put a vacuum on the detector, cool it down, power it up, take some dark images.

  Verify that dark images vary with different exposure times.
  and that the noise is at the expected level.

6. Take some optical images. (Generate a photon transfer curve) 7. Work on solving miscellaneous problems with LBNL 8. Software development: Area detector, data reduction, user interface..... 9. Take some Fe source images 10. Test at the Optics/Detector Beam line 11. Install at Beam Lines

CIN Modules

  • LBNL to fill in?

Top Module

  • LBNL to fill in

Digitizer Module

  • LBNL to fill in

Chiller

  • Need to install into detector heads

GUI

  • Add fCRIC mask to GUI
  • Keep consolidating redundant routines

COMPLETED TASK

Vacuum Chambers

  • APS has two vacuum chambers built

Chiller System

  • APS has two Systems

GUI

  • Put under CVS control
  • Added image viewer
  • Added Expousre controls
  • Add fCRIC Timing waveforms
  • Sync/Update Exposure control when other data is sent down
  • One button to send file to FPGA and update GUI
  • Currenly when you send down a configuration file it does not update the GUI's waveforms, and bias windows, unless you are in the the waveform or bias window.

ATCA Shelves

  • Arrived from
  • Linux installed
  • Lots of software installed
  • Raid array mounted and tested using 10Gbit Links

Clock Module

  • 8-1-2012 Shipped 12 tested Clock Modules to LBL

Need to fully build 12 Clock Modules, LBNL will provide metal plates (3 per module) Order 2 blank PCB

  • 4-2-2012 PCBs ordered (15 days)
  • 4-3-2012 Assembly ordered

Power Supply

  • 12-20-2012 Added connector on back for interlock system. When open power supply turns off.
