TOF Changes Run Log.

Problem/Change Runs Effected Initial Date: Final Date:
Camac TC failed.  There is no timing information for these runs. 3111-3556 5/25/2000 6/16/2000
5ns cables for TC from patch panel to discriminators were removed to replace failed camac.  ADC channels should have x2 the gain. 3309-3556 6/9/2000 6/16/2000
Sensor TC 76 D was broken right at the point of the TC crate replacement.   There is no timing information from these runs on that sensor. 3556-4490 6/16/2000 7/31/2000
The sum output from the cosmic trigger discriminator was not connected after the TC crate was replaced. 3556-4523 6/16/2000 8/2/2000
Changed ADC gate because real signals were arriving at the end of the gate.  A 60ns delay was introduced.  This didn't completely correct the problem.   The signals in a real gate come within a range of 25ns.  Some of the real signals were being cut off by the leading edge of the ADC gate.  Furthermore, this delay results in the cosmic signal being 55ns too early with respect to the leading edge of the gate. 3797-4372 6/23/2000 7/25/2000
Slot #8 in TC  camac no longer can be set to remote mode.  It is currently in local mode, but this has no effect on the data. >3797 6/23/2000 present
The FB fast clear was arriving too early with respect to the TOF ADC gate after the delay.  The fast clear was delayed, and the FB read is not affect by this problem from this point. >4000 7/1/2000 present
Discriminator in slot #17 for TC camac was set to -9mV.  This resulted in a high count rate for 6 channels.  TC12U, TC64U, TC66U, TC112U, TC119U, TC26D. ~4280-4411 ~7/11/2000 ~7/27/200
TC camac's power was toggle.  This had no effect on slot #8. >4280 7/11/2000 present
LED trigger signal was delay in order to get the LED signal into the ADC gate.  This was done since the ADC gate was delayed by 60ns. >4364 7/24/2000 present
ADC gate was un-delay by 10ns because some of the real signals were being cut off by the leading edge of the gate. Furthermore, this delay results in the cosmic signal being 45ns too early with respect to the leading edge of the gate. 4372-4592 7/25/2000 8/4/2000
TDC gate was delayed by 90ns to make sure the timing signals for the TOF are in the high resolution range of the TDC's. 4411-4463 7/26/2000 7/30/2000
TDC gate was removed because of conflicts with trigger data in the TDC in FB slot #9. 4464-4539 7/30/2000 8/2/2000
TDC gate was delayed by 90ns, and this is permanent. >4540 8/2/2000 present
ADC gate was adjusted to insure full integration of all TOF signals.   The gate was moved 10ns foward in time and was widen by 10ns. >4593 8/4/2000 present
PMT #8E21L1 {Base #82, Sensors TB28-2B(TB40-43) down} current had a dramatic increase in current by 23microAmps.  These channels are given bad signal for both energy and time. 5497-6024 8/28/2000 4/23/2001
Wall TB camac crate failed.  The load on the UPS to that crate is zero. There is no TDC information from wall TB in these runs. 5554-5564 9/1/2000 9/1/2000
PMT #8E21L1 {Base #82, Sensors TB28-2B(TB40-43) down} turned OFF. 5621-6024 9/4/2000 4/23/2001
TOF wall Turned OFF because HI physic run is finished.   9/5/2000 4/23/2001
Wall TC crate replace with BiRa crate 5701 11/1/2000 present
Or set in electronics. If TOF calibration trigger is applied.  ADC gate is un-delayed by 40ns.  5701 10/31/2000 present
TOF cosmic trigger now comes at 20-25ns before signal. 5710 11/3/2000 present
5ns cable from TOF patch panel to discriminators moved.

041/A1 now goes to TC slot #17 ref. cable channel 1

101/A1 now goes to TC slot #17 ref. cable channel 2,  this channel now has an additional 6ns delay in its timing. The additional delay comes from the additional cable needed to route to the discriminator in the TC camac crate.

5710 11/3/2000 present
TOF wall turned ON for HI run 2001.  Al channels are accounted for. >=6024 4/23/2001 1/25/2002
ADC gate has been increased from 80ns to 95 ns.

Gate shifted back to 80ns to preserve continunity between LED runs.

>=6238

TOF Discriminator thresholds have been adjusted to -375mV >= 7257 7/19/01 present
