09:59 Noticed that the right hand ribbon cable for aida07 was offset vertically by 1. i.e. Only 1 of the 2 rows of pins in. Unbiassed detectors and reconnected.
Rebiassed detectors - leakage current on DSSD2 increased to 9.96uA - Attachment 1

Tests performed
After leaving overnight noticed the pulser was not fully inserted into aida09
Little change in rates
observed in 9 but otherwise nothing else
Connected bias of aida02 (n+n ground) to aida06 (n+n ground) and likewise 4-8
No
change observed in rates
Also tested covering the snout in light tight material
No Changes

Grounding implemented
Each FEE given direct connection to heavy duty earth bar via adaptor board lemo ground
Earth bars
are then connected to platform ground on AIDA frame

Improvements not as large as expected from
previous experience though
Particularly in the n+n side where widths still appear awful
