Channel/tiles observation
Here I will post my daily observations of the tiles with some comments. The summary is on : https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/blog/lisa/Bad-tiles-and-electronics-channels-EPD-Run-2024
May 12th
One more empty plot (and ADC): W PP2 TT 8, W PP1 TT6, W PP2 TT10, E PP7 TT22, E PP7 TT18,
May 1st
Online plots empty: W PP1 TT6, W PP2 TT10, E PP7 TT22, E PP7 TT18,
Except of that:
Looks like only half od EPD (repeats on several "sets of plots" for a given run) is really getting hits: https://online.star.bnl.gov/epd/Signal/25121/25121077.adc_Rg4_West.png
run 25121077
By "eye" visible below:
Many histos empty in next runs were empty or nearly empty.
Short runs later - difficult to say sth more.
update: there start/end delay were switched to old ones, possible reason for mess.
April 30
Online plots empty: W PP1 TT6, W PP2 TT10, E PP7 TT22, E PP7 TT18,
April 29
What I would do/check:
1) check on scope and change channel: E PP7 TT18, W PP2 TT10
2) observe: E PP7 TT22
Claim completely out:
