2. xCAL HV system hardware (x  {E,H}) PMT/CWs Each xCAL PMT installed on the detector wall is equipped with an individual Cockcroft-Walton (CW) HV generator. Each requires DC power (+6V, -6V and +90V), and a control voltage determining the HV value. These voltages are provided by HV/LED control boxes installed below and above the calorimeters HCAL ECAL Yu. Guz 2015/04/212

3. xCAL HV system hardware: control boxes Total of 40 control and distribution boxes are installed at the chariots and at the CALO platform: 32 ECAL, 8 HCAL They provide: DC power and control voltages for the xCAL CW generators; DC power and control voltages for LED drivers (NB decoupled from common ground) bias voltage for PIN photodiodes and DC power for their amplifiers The output voltages are controlled: control voltages for CWs – SPECS DCU voltage at +6V and -6V CW power lines – SPECS DCU control voltage for LEDs – dedicated ADC LV&MV in CW control CW power LED/PIN power, LED control SPECS Inputs: +6V, +7V, -7V, 15V : DCS LV, from MARATONs (platform) +90V, -25V : DCS MV, from Agilent PS (D3) SPECS communication input Outputs: 8 power lines for xCAL CW (up to 40 CWs on each line) DAC control of up to 200 xCAL CW bases 8 outputs with LED/PIN power + 2 LED control each SPECS output Output protection on the CW DC power outputs: +6V -6V : fuses +90V : relays Yu.

4. 48 LVDS From LEDTSB PS / SPD HV system hardware The PS/SPD MAPMT modules use HV produced by CW generators installed at the CALO platform. The HV system is arranged in two crates (one per side, in racks L3B03 and L3B13). Each crate contains: 1 DAC module, 11 CW modules (5 PS, 5 SPD, 1 spare); LED control board. Each CW module contains 10 CW generator mezzanines and serves 10 MAPMTs. Inputs: +7V, -7V : DCS LV, from MARATONs (platform) +150V : DCS MV, from Agilent PS (D3) SPECS communication Outputs: 110 HV outputs for MAPMTs 10 DAC outputs for LED control DAC module CW modules LED control Yu.

5. Rack D3B04 in D3 4 Agilent power supplies for HCAL, ECAL, PRSA and PRSC (+ one power supply +5V for the CALO Status Bit board, not discussed here). MV hardware The MV necessary for the CALO HV is provided by Agilent power supplies (PS1—PS4): HCAL, ECAL: two N6701 power frames, each with 2 N6776 (100V ) and 2 N6734B (30V) units, produce +90 V for CW bases (1 per side) and -25 V for PIN photodiode bias (1 per side) PS/SPD : two 1-channel N5750A power supplies producing +150 V for CWs (1 per side). Ch 1Ch 2Ch 3Ch 4 PS1hcagil01+90V HCAL A-25V HCAL A+90V HCAL C-25V HCAL C PS2ecagil01+90V ECAL A-25V ECAL A+90V ECAL C-25V ECAL C PS3psagil01+150V PRS A PS4psagil02+150V PRS C Served by the CADCSMV project running on CADCS01. The PVSS control is based on standard MARATON software; the Agilent commands and readings are relayed into MARATON datapoints via DIM. Each Agilent box is served by an individual communication executable installed as a service on a CCPC named CACC0601W (this CCPC also hosts the CALO MARATON communication for CADCSLV; its name can be found and status can be checked in the “Fieldbus status” panel available from BigBrother) One service per PS HCAL PRS C PRS A ECAL The LV control: see Patrick’s slides Yu.

6. MV ECS control Use shortcut: /group/online/ecs/Shortcuts311/CALO/CADCSMV/CADCSMV_UI_DEN.sh Few things to remember: switch MV ON/OFF only at the HV OFF state, for the sake of safety; the MV is ramped up rather slowly, ~3 min for HCAL and up to 5 min for ECAL and PRS. During the ramp, the Agilent DIM applications are not responding and FSM state does not change. Be patient. Only larger time interval may indicate problems. the protection state of a power supply channel (overcurrent, overvoltage etc) leads to the FSM ERROR state. The RECOVER FSM command or OFF button of the device panel switches off this particular channel and resets its protection (no need to reset the whole power supply). Yu. Guz 2015/04/216 The LV control: see Patrick’s slides

7. ECS HV control Control PCPVSS project PRS CPSDAQHVC01PRSHVC1 PRS APSDAQHVA01PRSHVA1 ECAL CECHVC01HCHVC1 ECAL AECHVA01HCHVA1 HCAL C HCDAQHVC01 ECHVC1 HCAL AHCDAQHVA01ECHVA1 Six separate PVSS projects on six control PCs. They are included into the LHCb FSM hierarchy, so that the HVs are controlled centrally. On top of it, many tools are available for piquet / expert operations: manipulations with recipes: prepare, store, delete switching ON/OFF/masking individual channels, modification of their parameters modify DAC box parameters, exclude or include it into the FSM hierarchy Three main FSM states are used: OFF, STANDBY1, READY. Corresponding FSM commands are Go_OFF, Go_STANDBY1 and Go_READY. Yu. Guz 2015/04/217

8. ECS HV control All the six projects have similar structure. The FSM / central operation is based on a permanently running worker script (“monitoring”) which: at a period of ~ 20 sec, reads out all the DAC values, voltages measured at the LV DC power lines, status of the relays at the MV lines; in case of unexpected readings, it produces alarms at the alarm screen or device ERROR state upon arrival of an FSM command, it ramps the device to the desired state restart it Control manager running the monitoring script The monitoring script sends a short report to the log screen after every readout cycle. Absence of such reports mean that the monitoring task is stuck. This typically happens at a project restart at LV not in READY state. In this case, the corresponding PVSS manager is to be restarted. In every case of strange behavior of a CALO HV project, it can be useful first to check the status of its monitoring manager, and restart it if needed It can also be restarted from the FSM HV panel (next slides) and from CALO fwSystemOverview panel (/group/online/ecs/Shortcuts311/CALO/CALO_UI_fw SystemOverview.sh).

10. ECS HV control: connectivity panel Yu. Guz 2015/04/2110 displays connectivity and current settings for a selected cell. The search is possible on: cell name (“coordinates”, like O_18_08) cell (x,y) coordinates in mm DAC channel (1000*box# + chan#) ADC channel (10000*crateId + 100*slot# + input#) PMT name PIN name, PIN ADC channel, LED DAC channel LEDTSB channel etc... NB DAC channel numbers start from 0 here, but from 1 in the DAC box panels! Expert / piquet operations. The button “restart HVmon” is especially useful for piquet. The rest is for preparation of HV/LED recipes: uniform PMT gain uniform LED control voltage HV from/to Calo database LED control voltage from/to Calo database custom HVs, LEDs control, channel masks from ascii files

16. CALO_HV_TOP panel (CA2) Shows CALO HV status. If number of channels ON is less than nominal (sometimes happens for ECAL, because of SPECS errors), the Go_READY command should be re-sent (use DEFAULT recipe, identical to PHYSICS). Important figures are MV current consumptions. They are normally very stable(*), deviations may indicate real problems. The trends can be best displayed via lbTrending (next slide). (*) the ECAL MV current slowly decreases, because of radiation effects in the central CW bases; this is normal. Yu. Guz 2015/04/2116

18. Error states, alarms xCAL LV outputs for CWs Protected by fuses: 1A conventional fuses || 0.5A resettable ones. If LV values differ significantly from 6V, warning or alarm produced (visible at the shifter’s alarm screen, also with shortcut G:\online\ecs\Shortcuts38\LHCb\LBECSINFO\LBECSINFO_ UI_fwAlarmHandlingScreen.lnk ). The limits are: U < 5.3 V : WARNING (yellow). The conventional fuse is burned, the resettable one is alive (which causes certain voltage drop). The CWs remain operational, the broken fuse is to be replaced at the next occasion (expert action). U < 3.5 V : ERROR (orange). Both conventional and resettable fuses are dead, the 20-40 CWs belonging to this power line are not operational (this will be visible by other means). The conventional fuse should be replaced as soon as possible. xCAL MV relays The MV output of each CW power line is protected by a relay controlled by a protection system. It opens the relay in case of overcurrent (>100 mA). An open relay means that the 20-40 CWs belonging to this power line do not work. In this case an ERROR at the alarm screen is produced. Piquet action: try to close the relay using the corresponding DAC box panel. if unsuccessful: ‒ switch OFF HV then MV at this subdetector side ‒ close the relay ‒ switch ON MV then HV if unsuccessful again, call expert. An access can be needed. The FSM ERROR state can be produced because of SPECS errors. Check the LV ON state; try to switch the affected board(s) OFF and ON; restart the project and the SPECS server. If unsuccessful, one can exclude the affected DAC boxes from FSM; access may be necessary (e.g. to replace a dead DAC mezzanine). Yu. Guz 2015/04/2118
