  131   Sun Jun 16 07:08:10 2019 Ela, Sonja, Victor, Alejandroproblems in coincidence crystals-F11
We have noticed that there is a problems in the coincidence Crystals-F11. The TAC shows a lot of counts. The
Crystals spectrum in coincidence with F11 do not. The time window of this coincidence is from-50 to 50 samples
and it should be from -180 to 300 samples to be centered in the peak of the TAC.

We will change it at soon as possible

  60   Mon May 27 13:50:54 2019 A. Algorapreparation directory moved

The preparation directory was moved to /data/DRikenPreparation (from its first place /home/dacq/DRikenPreparation) because the lack of space.

  98   Thu Jun 6 09:36:52 2019 Alvaro, Jorge, Alenew config file
New config file: 20190606_Conf.xlsx

Changed with respect to the earlier file (20190605_Conf.xlsx):

-The threshold of the Reference detector was changed from 2800 to 3500.
-A new gated histogram was added: ECryA gated by F11PLR in the energy range of the implanted ions, named as
EcryAGF11

Issue in AIDA PL (see screenshot). A lot of small signals; top, samples, bottom output of EFIR (picture taken
when integration = 50 samples; value in configuration = 20)

  15   Sat May 18 01:41:45 2019 Nacher, Algoragain check after the night

Only PM3 showed an small jump. It seems that it has moved. Even after changing the HV cable. We will pay attention to it in the next days.

The others seem stable.

  107   Sun Jun 9 04:03:38 2019 Jorge, Jose, Pancho, Alvaro, Kike, Aleeffect of the pulser in the low energy part of the anodes

There is an effect if the pulser is at higher frequency in the low energy part of the anodes (apart from the funny situation that the scaler shows an increase from 1.7 Khz to 8.5 kHz and the dynodes rate remain with the same rate)

The effect can be seen in the spectrum of the anodes. See screenshots in the attachment. First attachment (pulser at 10 Hz, second attachment pulser at 100 Hz)

After the long background measurement we have measured 60Co to check alignment.
Everything looks fine except for detector #3 that has moved to lower gain (seen in dynodes and anodes).
See figures attached.

Comments: before this measurement  the system was restarted.

LED in EDy16 looks wider

The TACS were recovered. Probably all the files of today (until now) and generated after the configuration file change do not have the calibrated spectra.

Dynod 15: 166 Hz

Pulser set to 10 Hz

Rate of Dynode 5, 15, 17  seem a little higher than the others. The same for Anode 11, 15, 17

Not clear why the Dynodes rate is so high compared with the anodes. There is not such a big

difference in rate of the individual detectors.  

(Dynodes and Anodes rates are taken from the Python script written by Jorge, that correspond to the full card)

Later it become evident that probably we need to increase  the threshold of detector 8 again (Dy08).

Before it was not like that, but now seems to be triggering in the noise.
