User evaluation of prototype ROD
Most interest at present is in understanding Silicon modules, not the hardware to read them out.
Very few Silicon modules in captivity - those that are, are released reluctantly by their holders.
Hence any user evaluation of the prototype ROD must be within these constraints.
In the next 6-9 months, we will not have the type of ROD DAQ that Tom’s talk alludes to - we will have to fit into the current data taking mechanism.
