12. Other Equipment SMA to LEMO cables: Optical Patches Attenuators
Made by C. Sigaud, PH/MIC
7 per experiment (6 + spare) will be delivered with the RF2TTC
Optical Patches
Being ordered now to Fibernet
Please answer to my about the fibre lengths
Attenuators

13. PH/ESS already paid in advance for
Money Matters
PH/ESS already paid in advance for
Part of the fibre installation
Components for production of the RF2TTC
Part of the components for the RF_Tx and RF_Rx modules
A cost estimation of the modules production and of the fibres installation will be sent to the TTC coordinators of all the experiments this week
After approval, a TID will be sent to each of them, to finance the work being done now

15. Software Software Firmware Complete API will provide
RF_Rx control and monitoring
RF2TTC control with calibration routines
RF2TTC test procedure
Portability to CCT controllers and CAEN PCI/USB interfaces
The frequency received by each Rx will be published on the DIP for the RF
Firmware
RF2TTC firmware is done
Will be used by the experiments during the summer
Can be re-discussed end of September if some new functionnalities are required.

Stephane DETRAZ PH/ESS) will take care of the support, maintenance and help to installation during this time
TTC upgrade modules
Production tests
Distribution to users
Technical help for the setup of the TTC upgrade system
Follow-up of the fibres installation (with Nicolas Zaganidis, TS/EL)
Technical questions about TTC system…
Be kind, Stephane is just beginning and he is not at 100% on the TTC project!
We will send an to the TTC coordinators with all the required information
All the necessary documentation will be stored on the TTC-upgrade web page and could be sent on request by Stephane
I will read my s on a (un)regular weekly basis
