September 5, 2007 online meeting minutes

present: Sergey Boyarinov, Sergey Pozdnyakov, Stepan Stepanyan, Eugene Pasyuk, Nerses Gevorgyan

We discussed long- and short-term jobs we'd like to complete.

Long-term projects:

1. CLAS12 trigger and DAQ systems detailed design which should be ready by next summer, Sergey B. will work with Fast Electronics Group to prepare that.

2. Trigger system for DVCS calorimeter. We purchased and installed pretrigger discriminators and v1495 trigger board, and started to work with Altera tools required to program v1495 board. In ideal case we want that board to look for 3x3 clusters in calorimeter. Roman Pomatsalyuk works with v1495 for Hall A. That project can be good start for CLAS12 trigger development, we may run it in few following month, although it should be ready by the end of next summer.

3. If we have a time, CLAS (not CLAS12 !) monitoring improvement still our goal. As it was discussed before we want to have EPICS CA-based information available from all low-level devices and from online data monitoring, before we can think about logic diagrams for state machines or whatever will be used to process them. Several old HV systems, CAMAC systems and online data analysis still to be presented as CA-based information.

Short-term projects:

1.
