- Cody: 24 (out 25) new fADCs were tested and only two failed - much better than with the previous production. Cody replaced 10 fADC125 (see logbook entry) following the list of bad channels (with missing bits) given to him by Naomi and Vlad. Will try to fix the bad channels if possible or ship them for repair.

- Cody: the new 25 fADC125 are here and are being tested, very good results so far. We discussed also the issues with the f125 firmware, but this will be left for the fADC125 meeting.

- We discussed options for turning off the power of the FDC chiller in case the temperature of the Fluorinert is out of the limits. On the next day Dave looked into this and decided to do something he's doing for HallB: external box that is plugged between the outlet and the chiller (note: 208V three phases 30A). It has a relay inside controlled by the PLC system that is taking the temperature from the epics readings of the chiller.
