Issues with System Reliability and Maintainability 19-April-05 Issues with System Reliability and Maintainability LV > Wiener Maraton system (air cooled) Problems with OPFC modules The front panel switch has been a problem – the quick connect to the switch becomes unreliable Plan is to have the connection soldered after agreement with Wiener The Soft Start can fail and damage module Turning the power OFF and then back ON too quickly can cause the failure This is a feature of the slow ramp-down inside the module For now the fix is administrative Only experts cycle switches > with proper time interval observed Shifters instructed (& procedures) to switch ON only if they are found OFF > never cycle CANBus communication problems with Maraton units Recently observed > not yet diagnosed CANBus PC crashes – could be symptom or cause Note LV stays ON and hardware protections stay in place But DCS monitoring and software protections are lost Reboot computer Cannot communicate with Maratons Cycle power to Maraton(s) – see problem above Then communication can be restored Works BUT have to restart and reinitialize electronics for multiple crates plus 9 chamber per crate. Also cannot be done on the fly but requires time between runs. 6-Nov-08 ESSC Nov 2008 > CSC Status Report by Fred B.

Issues with System Reliability and Maintainability 19-April-05 Issues with System Reliability and Maintainability HV > problems with resistors in UF custom system A resistor is used for each channel to measure the exact voltage applied to that channel >> over 10,000 channels The resistor used has failed to retain its factory specifications The resistance moves up or down significantly over relatively short time periods This change can be calibrated out but would require re-calibration before each run We will replace these resistors during the coming shutdown Modules will be removed from tower racks in cavern Resistors will be swapped in the ISR clean room area QA, tests and calibrations will be carried out at ISR Modules will be re-installed The process will be carried out sequentially so that most of the HV for CSC is operational at all times. Electronics modules and crates On-chamber Electronics Old problem with fuses on ALCT boards is corrected Very limited access makes repair of ‘normal’ failures very difficult > thus we have an inventory of deferred interventions Other Electronics PROM issues for pcrate boards Program for onboard FPGA’s is stored in local PROM and reloaded at each hard reset These PROM’s loose their program with the result that the connected chamber is lost to the readout A reprogram of the PROM brings it back without problem But need to find a solution > being worked on internal interfaces > no issues 6-Nov-08 ESSC Nov 2008 > CSC Status Report by Fred B.

External Interface reliability 19-April-05 External Interface reliability Cooling During CRAFT running the cooling on detector and in counting rooms has been reliable We are working to add additional DCS linked temperature sensors in CSC cavern racks to detect problems in a finer grained way and to monitor trends Power Power upstream of our LVPS has been reliable. TTC > no particular problems DAQ Occasionally the CSC FEDS have sent FMM warnings and errors generated by problem front-end boards Since the Central Trigger stops a run on an FMM warning or error we have disabled FMM reporting by our front-end boards This will result in a negligible loss of data We will review this decision when we are allowed access to fix the small number of boards CSC along with other systems have problems associated with start of run the source has been identified in the software and fixes will be implemented 6-Nov-08 ESSC Nov 2008 > CSC Status Report by Fred B.
