  157   Wed Mar 8 07:57:05 2023 IKProblems Beambeam unstable

The beam was unstable from 7:55. Stabilized around 8:03.

Counting rates are higher, EAGLE det4 went to ~2.5kHZ from ~2kHz (attached).

According to the operator, a bit of a tuning was done, current is 1nA.

  245   Sun Mar 12 03:05:45 2023 GJ, AFProblems Networkno data flux visible in grafena, LF prints "write: Broken pipe"
As in the title, see below.
The data are still being constantly written on the disks with usual rate (also visible on grafena).
Greware is also seeing data.

Run number: 0
Trigger: g
Start time: Mon Feb 27 02:43:50 2023
Stop time: Mon Feb 27 03:21:01 2023

Two Eu sources hanging in more or less focus points of two partially open halves of EAGLE.
  39   Thu Mar 2 23:04:01 2023 GJProblem Fixed HardwareConnection of the plunger cables, grounding, beam read-out for the operators
Notes of the measurements with different conditions are attached.

Conclusion:
What is read out by the operators on the blue cable should be multiplied by 7 to get a real value in enA.

  43   Fri Mar 3 02:23:45 2023 GJProblems Softwarebuilder gate, TS offsets
Data from current run - 35, with limited beam current and rates - see a recent post by Güray.
BU level, so what we see in Greware (both online & nearline).
Attached is the fold of Germaniums.
It seems way too large to me.
We are summing up the events and then, not surprisingly, having rubbish gamma-gamma matrices.
The gate is 1500 ns, while Ge are not so far away from each other.

Any fixed time differences should be corrected with LF configuration.
Having all Ge, ACS, and Neda TS-aligned at LF level, BU will do a good job with a reasonable short gate.

We need channel-by-channel TS differences.

The data we took and we are taking now can be recovered in terms of this correction later on.

Marcin can build the events correctly from LF level.
Let's try to do so with as short gates as possible and see again the gamma-gamma matrix and neutron-gated g-g 
matrix.

  175   Thu Mar 9 01:41:50 2023 GJProblem Fixed HardwareTS zeroing - cables to S-IN from VME controller - between runs 49 and 50
Since we were observing jumps of 16 ns in timings of all channels of whole boards, the assumption was that the 
signals from logical FIFO arrive at different times to S-IN inputs to zero the TS counters.
6 originally placed cables of quite the same length were replaced with 6 cables of declared 3-ns length, same 
producer, borrowed from NW's equipment.
