Testing-2005-11-02

Part of AlansSr1Tests

(16:11:22) Alan: Ok what do you want me to test?
(16:11:54) PeterP: 1) all modules that work in one group, present code
(16:12:08) PeterP: 2) all modules that work in on group, code from HEAD
(16:12:38) PeterP: 3) when we get some errors, we could try to turn on the integrated error decoder
(16:12:39) Alan: (2) means DSP code from HEAD? Other code from HEAD?
(16:13:03) PeterP: 2) means DSP code from head - you should just need the images.
(16:13:30) PeterP: Images for 3 I will make available by scp.  Will only be slave images, mdsp code will be as from HEAD
(16:13:38) Alan: Ok
(16:13:43) PeterP: Maybe try 1 for now, or run all tests with present code?
(16:13:47) Alan: Sorry for my slowness - sleep deprived!
(16:14:20) Alan: Will do 1 today, and see how far I get. Will pass over to Dave for part of tomorrow morning, and then I'll take over just before lunch again.

1058 - 0 NMask. Stalls at bin 121 with data errors.
     - 1 Pipeline. OK.
     - 3 NMask. Stalls again same bin
     - 4 FB. OK except module 106 - Link 1 is turned off because of data errors.
     - 5 Quick NMask. ok.

17:25 HV on. Channel 1 trips @ 30 V. Take out module 005. Others ok.

1059 - 0 SD ok.
     - 1 3PG. ok.
     - 4 NO. ok.
     - 5 DTN. ok.
     - 6 RC. ok. 
     - 16 STN. fails. First 200-ish events ok. FFT veto? NO - this is a TIM2.

New DSP CODE

18h00 Reflashed MDSP with /daqsoft/sct/devdsp/mdsp120b.bin + used _error_ SDSP code from same directory.

 1060-0 NMask - now completes correctly- but no errors detected - magically fixed?
 1060-1 NO. good.
 1060-2 STN. fails after ~300 events in bin 0. Too high a data rate?

18h23 Turn on all fibres - try to inject errors. (two were off before.)

 1062 - 0 NMask.
