Minutes of the July 7, 2005 US ROD meeting

General

Agree to use yellow stickers to flag modified rods.
Investigating DB solutions also.

FNAL

Jumpered 29 rods, populated 24, all tested in SR, 11 supect:

4 strange noise, maybe grounding
2 broken thermistor from DCU
2 ID=1: both give negative humidity. Either box problem or rod problem
1 laser failure
1 fails redundancy test
1 a few more noisy channels, probably OK

Six tested in MR. Time tune errors, also a few errors 64,68,72.

DefectAnalyzer: problems with records 4 and 5 (not seen at UCSB).

UCSB

6 modified rods in MR, No I2C errors.

Wim installed modified LT two days ago with increased debug output to
catch errors 64,68 seen at FNAL. But no such errors at UCSB...
Problem with HV tail: comes off, especially after lots of manipulations.
Currently using 1 hr glue. Investigating alternatives.
