== Hardware

— will tune east laser today during maintanence window

— shift beam a little for more illumination

== Electronics

— still the usual losses and repairs of RDOs and FEEs

— seems Tonko has removed most of the problematic ones

— some still have dead times that rise above the expected dead times

— will ask crews to identify which sectors are causing it

— can then make a note of the specific sector and make it easier to find

— the problem is intermittent, showing up every few days or so

— problem disappears if run is stopped and restarted

== Software

— nothing new reported this week

== AOB

— Crew should do half-field cosmics if there are extended down times

— should also plan for some cosmics with full field after the end of run

— currently, only thing mentioned in planning is extra half-field if not enough is taken during the run

Best Regards,

  Richard
