1. Controls Review  Want to record a full configuration of the experiment at every possible “event”, including controls data.  Event trigger = accelerator clock (or something very close)  Systematics handles: ¤Using the beam itself: calibration runs ¤Experiment staging and component combinatorics ¤Defining tolerances  Areas: ¤Beam shape and content ¤Trackers and detectors ¤Cooling channel

2.   Stated Goal  out /  in of  10 –3  Assume there will be a standard (or agreed to) definition of 6-D cooling.  Assume that the tracker can give us precision particle position and momemtum that this won’t contribute significantly to the error.  Assume particle ID < 1% error  The main sources of systematic errors are in the cooling channel and detector solenoids, which will need to be under control to a level such that up to 10 independent sources of systematics will be < 10 -3  Suggested goal to keep each source of error <3*10 -4 level Assumptions

6. Particle ID – Cerenkov (2) - 8 analog channels for monitoring the (positive) HV's. - 8 analog channels for monitoring the analog responses of PM's to light pulses. - 1 digital output channel for triggering the light pulser - 8 TDC outputs (probably not important? depends on the noise levels). - 1 analog for oxygen sensor - 1 analog channel for monitoring the humidity inside the vessel. - 1 analog channel for a temperature probe - 1 analog channel for the He pressure inside the Cherenkov vessel. - 2 switches (over and underpressure)

8. PID – TOF(2) To measure t.o.f. with s ~ 70 ps, it is necessary to monitor detector status, environmental conditions (e.g., temperatures for signal cables)  HV setting (~ 80 channels) via CAEN SYS1527-SYS3527 mainframes  Temperature probes (~3)  Magnetic field probes (~3)  Additional (laser interlock, other.. ) Less than 100 channels to be under cold control system
