<!-- Notes: -->
<pre>Requests for the day: 

<ul> 
<li> Shower max electronics upgrades (ccal01 and plug crates) will continue through the shift (Byrum/Lindgren) 
<li> Rick Tesarek needs the calorimeter crates for one hour (0800-0900) to check out electronics (will coordinate with shower max people) 
<li> Steve Vecjik is to do a pulser calibration on the wall calorimeter right after database is recovered (0900-1000). 
<li> Steve V. also wants wcal03, cll104 and cll204 later in the day (1200-1600). 
<li> Plug HV supply #11 will be swapped out -- will take most of shift. 
<li> Vaia Papadimitriou needs to have the LED and SMX calibration performed again (1100-1200). 
<li> CMX00 work all day (Trevor Vickey) 
<li> puls01 is needed by Matt Jones for latter part of day (1200-1600) 
<li> All COT crates till 1500 (Dittman) 
</ul> 
A number of requests were made for the evening: 
<ul> 
<li> Test of a new L2 tagset 
<li> Test of shower max fixes 
</ul>

Everybody must make entries into the log once the work is completed and inform the shift crew.

<pre>Mike S. working on TSI requested that we try partition 0 
 
Cannot get run started because Integration DB is old.. 
Bill Badget is updating... 
 
Robin called and said she is done with the calorimeter crates.

<h2>Cal Crate Checkout</h2> 
Finished checking out the status of the calorimeter electronics 
and looking at the pedestals.  Sent a note to Mike Lindgren and Karen Byrum who want to use the plug and central crates to work on shower max.

<pre>Even though I didn't rate being listed in today's request 
list, I have moved the TS with the VME chipset upgrade to 
partition 0 (and installed ZIF sockets for the TS firmware 
PROMs so that the crate power does not have to cycled off to 
change the firmware for this partition).  Further details 
for experts can be found in the TSI elog. 
 
All 8 partitions should be working fine.  The spare TS 
and GL2 boards will be sent to PREP for the VME chip set 
upgrade. One by one then all of the modules will be upgraded. 
 
In the meantime it is still helpful for the shift crews 
to continue to use partition 0 heavily.</pre>

SVX BHW1 flow alarm (same one as yesterday).  Rick Stanek reset the valve.  Rob Roser reported at the 8 AM meeting that they didn't suspect the transducer, but the wiring or perhaps the input module.  Experts are looking into it.

Jean Slaughter informs us that SVX racks should remain off for the next hour or so, while the COT people complete some work around the cooling tubes.

<pre>We were finally able to get a run started,  
Rates seem to look ok: 
450 Hz for DiJet 0.5 GeV 
180 Hz  for 2 CMU 
100 Hz for DiJet 1 GeV 
 
ccal01 has been returned... 
 
going to start a new run so Bill Badgett can debug the

Boris Iyutin requested that ACE's page L3 when they suspect a L3 hang or problem <b> before </b> trying to clean up.  They would like to understand what is causing these problems.   
<p> 
Boris will also look into the time L3 is now taking for the various transitions to reduce the turn-around time from an error condition to activate.  L3 is now the bottleneck in this process (could it be as much as 8-10 minutes?).

L3 Partition took 4:51, Coldstart took 2:58.  Time for a coffee, cookie AND lunch.  This was all after a clean-up, but we're cleaning up most of the time.

be a set of calibration runs (led/flashped/xef) soon. 
 
2 xef trig cables unplugged(?) - fixed,

Ran cosmic test in parallel with Steve Vejcik's calibration.  Had a very high calorimeter trigger rate (basically 1.7 MHz).  Looked like trigger tower 8 but haven't had time to investigate.

Several cryo alarms go off (solenoid dewar, etc.).  Call cryo crew and they inform us that they are working on the solenoid and to expect alarms for the next few minutes.  They will let us know when they are done.

Jimmy Proudfoot request ccal09 and 13.  The former should not take too much time; the latter requires some debugging. 
<p> 
Michael Schmidt/Greg Feild are looking at the problem observed in the newly installed TS (now it is in Partition 1) when running calorimeter calibrations earlier today.
<!-- Author: Pekka -->
<!-- Comment: Thu May 17 15;59;34 comment by...Michael Schmidt -->
<pre>Unfortunately we have finally learned that the
TS now serving partition 1 is not able to handle
fixed period calibration running.  This is the
module that was supposed to be our hot spare
AND had the VME chip set up date. The problem
we observe does not appear to be associated with
the VME chip set update. We will replace this TS
and test this theory it as soon as we get one back
from PREP.</pre>
