- Fernando informed us that the DAQ group (Bryan Moffit) is working on the drivers for the fADC125 with LINUX CPU and also for VXWorks. Beni said he would prefer to use the CPU we have now (VXWorks) because if we can have the LINUX one it will be temporary. Eugene suggested buying a LINUX CPU. Beni explained the three CPUs available now are from different companies, the DAQ people are evaluating them and we better wait before buying such a CPU. Fernando will ask Bryan when we may expect the drivers for the VXWorks CPU. By that time we will use the fADC with the Gerard's program. | - Fernando informed us that the DAQ group (Bryan Moffit) is working on the drivers for the fADC125 with LINUX CPU and also for VXWorks.

June 10, 2010 FDC meeting
Tentative Agenda
- Production
- 727 B.C. status
- production planning
- wire stringing
- tension measurement system
- Electronics
- fADC125 status (Gerard, Fernando)
- noise/grounding investigations(Fernando)
- Cathode redesign Bill's changes proposed on the last meeting (Bill, Roger)
- Full-scale prototype tests
- cosmics tests FDC Log Book, page 478 - 482 (Beni)
- new tests with fADC125 (Lubomir)
- Other
Minutes
Participants: Bill, Casey, Glenn, Roger, Beni, Chuck, Fernando, Simon, and Lubomir
Production
- We discussed only the production planning. Bill with the help of Chuck put the cathode production on the FastTrack. When a pdf version will be available it will be linked to the minutes of this meting. The production of one cathode sandwich (cathode and ground planes) will take about four days with five people: four techs cutting, gluing, stretching the foil and one electrical tech doing the soldering work. The second type of cathode sandwich doesn't have a ground plane which makes it by a half day faster, but if assuming the same time we will have 8 days per chamber layer or for 30 layers, 240 days in total.
-Fernando had to go to another meeting, so moved to electronics
