2. TGC Monitoring status - May 09 Code and xml(s) are installed and checked under tdaq-02-00-01 in: -- code: /det/muon/standalone/sw/tdaq-02-00- 01/detectors/muons/installed/ -- xmls: /det/muon/standalone/databases/tdaq-02-00- 01/muons/segments/TGC/ (GNAM/, DQMF/, OHP/) These are tested and ready to be copied in the combined area. Histograms: ~2000 for SHIFT, a little more for EXPERT. Problems with TGCRODSampler: running in command line but can’t be started via DAQ panel – should be solved until tonight (Noam & Daniel in CERN). With Serguei Kolos help. Problems with decode: new structure with 13 sectors require many modifications – should be solved during this week (Daniel). We can run also without this modification – historams will be meaningless. New dqm_algorithm for HitProfile gnam segment (relative algo). Everything is in CVS. Running tests in TGC Standalone today to be ready for tomorrow. nothing will run until TGCRODSampler is fixed hopefully until TONIGHT. Can run also without fixing the “sector 13” modification`

3. TGC Monitoring status – 27 May 09 1.4 GNAM segments (OverView, HitProfile, pTthreshold, TriggerProfile), 3 DQMF segments (GlobalChamber, Timing, SubsectorOccupancies). 2.pTthreshold, TriggerProfile, (and Efficiency) GNAMs: -- Decode methods are not yet functional for pTthreshold, TriggerProfile. -- Will start preparing the Efficiency GNAM with DL & Ohad soon. 3.Code and xml(s) are installed and checked under tdaq-02-00-01 in: -- code: /det/muon/standalone/sw/tdaq-02-00-01/detectors/muons/installed/ -- xmls: /det/muon/standalone/databases/tdaq-02-00-01/muons/segments/TGC/ (GNAM/, DQMF/, OHP/) >> Tested in TGC standalone via the DAQ-Panel. >> Ready to be copied in the combined area. Everything is in CVS. 4.Histograms: ~108+1536+52+26 (1722) for SHIFT, ~156 for EXPERT. 5.Jumbo-packets: tombox (solved?), gigabit switch (?). >> Should be ready for next cosmic run. 6.New “13 sectors” structure require many modifications (decode + QDA tests). >> In process, debugging with DL. 7.Several new dqm algorithms for DQMF segments. >> some are relative algo’s - where we don’t have good references yet. 8.DB: We can write online DQA results straight into the TGC ORACLE db. >> in discussions with DL, David, Akimassa. (See next slide..) 9.New tombox (it is an old mantra…)

4. DQ -> DB new thoughts Data from DQ will not go directly to the DB Data from DQMF will be stored in IS and taken from there to be registered in the DB. The information to register to the IS: – level - running chamber (via OverView gnam). One int array for 13 sectors and for strip/wire. – report - chamber status (compare with neighboring chambers): int runningChamberStatus(s/w)[N_RUNNING_CHAM BERS] – – level - running chamber (via HitProfile gnam) Two int arrays for 13 sectors and for strip/wire and for dead/hot channels. – report - number of dead/hot channels in a running chamber (2 arrays - dead, hot) Have to translate (online) from globalChannel to runningChamber - need to implement !!! int runningChamberDeadChannels(s/w)[N_RUNNING _CHAMBERS] int runningChamberHotChannels(s/w)[N_RUNNING_ CHAMBERS] – – level - running chamber (via OverView gnam - Timing (currently EXPERT)) have to move these histograms from EXPERT to SHIFT and read them with DQMF !!! Three int arrays for 13 sectors and for strip/wire and for previous/central/next BC. – report - timing of running chamber: number of hits in each BC int runningChamberCentralBC[size~N_RUNNING_ CHAMBERS] int runningChamberPreviousBC[size~N_RUNNING _CHAMBERS] int runningChamberNextBC[size~N_RUNNING_CH AMBERS] – – Location - put everything (all arrays) in IS. – Read it - HW representation tool to write in the DB – View it online from IS - special java viewer – – How to write an array/vector of status information (Daniel) ? – good ; don't forget to mention that we also start to create a GUI (java based) which takes data from the IS and plot it in P1
