1. Andy Blue Glasgow Update

2. Andy Blue WP3 Strip Meeting Environmental Chamber Installed into cleanroom –Working on controlling scans via Ethernet connection –Independent monitoring of Temperature and Humidity

3. Andy Blue WP3 Strip Meeting Remote Monitoring 4-20 mA (Current Loop) Sensor Board for Arduino Adruino Yun :built-in Ethernet and WiFi support Digital Vac/Pressure Gauge. Outputs 4-20mA indicating vac value Total Cost ~ £350 For reference, Cole Palmer sell similar system for about ~ £1.4k

4. Andy Blue WP3 Strip Meeting UV Glue valve using ASYMTEK machine DV-09 Needle Valve The DV-09 valve is an air-operated, adjustable needle valve. It is designed to apply precise, repeatable deposits from a fraction of a microliter up to continuous stripes of low to high viscosity fluids. Size: 108 x 27 mm (4.25 x 1.06 in.) Weight: 170 gm (6 oz.) Fluid Inlet Thread: 1/8 NPT Female Fluid Outlet Thread: Male luer lock Free -flow Area: 1.37 mm2 (.002 in.2) Maximum Fluid Pressure: 2067 kPa (300 psi) [21 bar] Air Pressure Required: 482 kPa (70 psi) [4.8 bar] Output Variation: ± 1.0% nominal (viscosity dependent)

5. Andy Blue WP3 Strip Meeting SCTDAQ Kenny at Glasgow working on Strip DAQ 1 day/week –Has began to get familiar with SCTDAQ –Looking at trim fitting code for ABC130 tests –Possibly modifying (speeding up) methods for fitting –He is also working on multi module testing for pixels using the RCE + HSIO setup

6. Andy Blue WP3 Strip Meeting Diamond Testbeam Testbeam is from 14 th -21 st October –In line to test HR CMOS Strip samples As well as LGAD strip and HV-CMOS devices –Currently writing code to trigger to/from oscilloscope, beam and xy stage to automate data taking Agilent Oscilloscope 9000A Running LabVIEW Data taking initiated by Trigger Works!

7. Andy Blue WP3 Strip Meeting Diamond Testbeam Turned out 1 st October was deadline for all diamond beam proposal for April – Sep 2015 –Managed to submit one for ABC130 tests Have requested 5 days Nearer the time we can maybe modify what we are testing Will find out in a few months if proposal has been accepted
