	* datafile containing DVCS raw data was ~~created and passed to Ben~~		Following progress was made since meeting last week:

	* ~~Ben: threshold 50 (adjustable), event display, hits per cluster 3 (adjustable), window 3x3, bigger or variable requires more space in FPGA; Ben will run good file through with different 50~~ and ~~3, make 2DIM plot, get efficiency, then process all data~~ and ~~get rejection; simple tool for simple logic ??~~		* datafile containing DVCS raw data was created by Rustam and Sergey and passed to Ben

	* ~~got quotation~~ for 2 more ~~v895 discriminators~~, ~~will be ordered~~		* Ben made event display to present and control cluster reconstruction process using Altera simulation tools; it has to adjustable parameters: single channel threshold (the same for all channels, was set to 50) and minimum number of hits per cluster (was set to 3); cluster finding window has fixed size 3x3 towers (bigger or variable size winow requires more space in FPGA); future plan includes processing good file with different parameters, making 2DIM plots, geting efficiency, then processing all data and geting rejection

	* ~~hodoscope - 60 channels: v895's for them (~~good to ~~have drawing in a couple of month, may add~~ to ~~the same trigger system or external and coinside later using )~~		* we discussed how much regular user have to learn anout v1495 programming; it maybe good idea to learn Altera graphic tool which allows to assemble simple logic from prepared components

	* borrow v1495 ~~asap~~		* we've got quotation for 2 more v895 discriminators from CAEN, they will be ordered

			* we talked very preliminary about hodoscope, which will be located in front of DVCS calorimeter and have about 60 channels; v895's discriminators and v1495's logic units must be purchased for that device; it will be good to have hodoscope drawing in a couple of months, we may consider to add hodoscope outputs to the DVCS trigger system

			* we'll try to borrow one more v1495 from Hall A for 2-board testing
