Below is a list of action items which we would like accomplish before the PrimEx Phase II run in Spring/Summer of 2021


Aligning FCAL in the Hall
Moving FCAL platform by about 5 mm in X-direction to make sure that the beam goes through the middle of the FCAL hole (3x3 modules). The exact position should be confirmed by the alignment group -- Tim Whitlatch


Perform preventative replacement of FCAL bases in 4 inner rings, which is critical for reconstruction of Compton events.
Several bases have already been replaced in this area. The status of FCAL bases in the 3 inner FCAL rings was provided by Colin and is presented in the link below.
Status of FCAL dividers in 3 inner rings
Perform preventative maintenance of FCAL bases. Diagnose and subsequently replace (reapair) bases which draw excessive current (typically larger than 15 mA), which is an indication of the possible failure. Currently estimate about 200 - 300 such bases -- Chris Stanislav, Fernando Barbosa, Matt Shepherd
