- Of the two 500 micron detectors from the GELINA setup one has broken bond wires and the other does not show a normal VI response to bias see attachment 1
   - The response appears to be ohmic
- Instead the two 1000 micron W1 detectors were mounted onto the stand
   - Both of these bias nicely and show appropriate leakage currents - attachment 2
- The photodiode has been tested and we see the noise decrease as we apply bias
   - This is our only indication it is working at at its nominal -30V the detector draws 0.00uA of leakage current
- The DAQ has been fully setup with 3 ADC modules which is enough for both W1 detectors and the photodiode
   - Nominal pulse peak widths are around 20keV for all channels
   - This is without any efforts to ground preamps to amplifiers
- One of the preamps we brought out has had two capacitors knocked off it. We have replaced this with a preamp taken from the GELINA chamber.
   - This preamp is configured with the pins reversed so will require the cable running to the detector to be reversed when we setup the experiment
   - We are bringing this preamp back to be repaired by the electronics workshop also
- The TDC has also been setup for all channels of the W1 detector.

Will move this to the mattermost channel once setup

Setting up CAEN V767 TDC

Note that to perform timing with the leading edge of the input logic signals
you need to select `rising edge' timing.

The following procedure for changing CAEN V767 settings _reliably_ appears
to work:

1) Halt data acquisition

2) From MIDAS Main Menu window select VME Module Control -> CAEN V767

3) From CAEN V767 TDC Setup & Monitor window _de-select_ -> Act on ALL    
   Modules?

4) From CAEN V767 TDC Setup & Monitor window select the first TDC module
   whose setting you wish to change

5) From CAEN V767 TDC Setup & Monitor window select Expert -> Disable Auto Load

6) Change CAEN V767 module settings as required

7) From CAEN V767 TDC Setup & Monitor window select Expert -> Save User
Configuration

8) From CAEN V767 TDC Setup & Monitor window select Expert -> Enable Auto Load

9) Repeat steps 4-8 for any other CAEN V767 TDC modules whose settings you
   wish to change

10) From CAEN V767 TDC Setup & Monitor window select Save Setup

11) From MIDAS Data Acquisition Experiment Control window select Setup ->
    Setup Everything

12) If you reboot the VME PowerPC CPU do NOT forget to set the TDC(s) in
    common stop mode

    From MIDAS Data Acquisition Experiment Control window select Advanced ->
    Configuration/Test/Debug Frame and confirm the request.

    Settings should be:

    TDC Mode: Common Stop
    TDC Hit Option: all
    TDC Referemce: 0 (usually)

N.B. The analog output of the RAL109 shaping amplifier module will not
drive a 50 Ohm load nor a 50Ohm coaxial cable > 20cm.

Always onnect the analog output of the RAL109 shaping amplifier module
to an oscilloscope input with 1MOhm/dc input coupling via an IDC ribbon
cable to Lemo-00 adaptor and a short coaxial cable (0.5ns, say).

Edinburgh/RAL RAL109 Shaping Amplifier Module
---------------------------------------------

Gain
----

The gain of the RAL109 shaping amplifier modules is adjusted by
attenuating the input signal.

The `gain resistors' are two dual inline (DIL) 16-pin packages. Each DIL
package contains eight individual resistors. The DIL packages are located 
between the power and input signal connectors at the back of the RAL109 
PCB motherboard.

The `termination resistors' are two single inline (SIL) 8-pin packages. 
Each SIL package contains four individual resistors. The SIL packages 
are located adjacent to the `gain resistors'. Input signals are typically
terminated in 100 Ohm. Because the output impedance of the RAL108 charge
sensitive preamplifiers is 100 Ohm, removal of the `termination resistors'
results in an effective x2 increase in gain. It should be noted that n+n
ohmic strip channels _require_ the 100 Ohm `termination resistors' to
be replaced by 1 kOhm `termination resistors' - p+n junction strip 
channels do _not_ require any `termination resistors'.

Examples of gain settings for the RAL109 shaping amplifier module are
shown in the table below.

Notes:
------

1) minimum LLD corresponds to c. 10mV (front panel monitor) for RAL109s
   with 100 Ohm input termination.

2) minimum LLD corresponds to c. 20mV (front panel monitor) for RAL109s
   without 100 Ohm input termination.

3) 9.375V FSR corresponds to the maximum input signal amplitude of the
   Silena 4418/V CAMAC ADC.
   
3) 7.500V FSR corresponds to the maximum input signal amplitude of the
   Silena 9418/6V VME ADC.

4) 3.840V FSR corresponds to the maximum input signal amplitude of the
   CAEN V785 A[A-D] VME multievent ADC with sliding scale enabled.

5) The gain values quoted are nominal. Typical variation of overall
   gain of RAL108 charge-sensitive preamplifier and RAL109 shaping
   amplifier is +/-10%.

Gain Adjustment
---------------

N.B. SWITCH OFF POWER TO THE KM-6 SUB-RACK BEFORE INSERTION OR REMOVAL
     OF RA1L09 SHAPING AMPLIFIER MODULES

1) Determine appropriate value for `gain resistors' using the tables
   and the information above.

   The resistance value of the DIL/SIL packages is usually presented 
   as follows: R22, R4K7 etc. or 220 (i.e. 22 x 10^0), 472 (i.e. 47 x 
   10^2) etc. for 22 ohm and 4.7 kohm respectively.

2) Determine whether you wish to terminate the input signals.

3) Switch off power to the KM-6 sub-rack containing the RAL109 shaping
   amplifier module.

4) Remove RAL109 shaping amplifier module.

5) Using a fine screwdriver (or similar) _gently_ lever the DIL packages
   at each end until free of their DIL sockets.

6) Remove `termination resistors' if required.

6) Insert `termination resistors' if required.
   Note that the SIL packages have no particular orientation.

7) Insert new DIL packages into their DIL sockets
   Note that the DIL packages have no particular orientation.

8) Visual check for bent pins or incorrectly seated DIL/SIL packages.

9) Insert RAL109 shaping amplifier module.

10) Switch on power to KM-6 sub-rack.
