Review of minutes from the previous meeting

We reviewed the minutes from the previous meeting.


Calibration

Code for TOF Hit factory has been updated. The default time window for matching ADC and TDC hits has been increased from 10 to 20ns to match the output signal width of the discriminators. The code was modified to NOT overwrite already found matches with new TDC match but instead make new Hit.


PMT testing

The new HV power supply sent to FSU already stopped working. Us single channel module for now. Gain measured for 10 PMTs. The measured gains differ from the factory values by +/- 10-20% this is more than previously seen. One PMT seems to have very low QE.
