BSMD Performance Table

Updated on Mon, 2009-04-13 22:51. Originally created by wleight on 2009-03-14 11:38.

For plots, see here.

If a fill does not appear in this table, that means that it was either less than 4 hours, contained no runs with non-zero-suppressed BSMD data, or (for some fills on March 28 and April 3) the monitoring code was down during the fill.

Note that no BSMD channels are masked out yet.

Eta RDO 1 softId 2200-2250 are especially bad.

Not much pedestal drift (MPVs are <0 more often than >0 though).

Bug in calculating RMS for BSMD channels: now fixed.

Bug caused BSMDP MPVs to be set equal to BSMDE MPVs, so the nBadCr numbers for this fill are not accurate: now fixed.

 Some channels have very high RMS, >10 and up to 20 or more in some cases (most have RMS~2).

Crate 20E has some structure in the 2D ADC plots.

 Still no masked out channels.

Eta softId 2200-2250 are definitely bad.

Almost no ped drift

Line in ADC vs. cap at ~100 in RDO 4?

Still no masking.

Oscillatory behavior persists in Phi RDO 7 (p. 65).

Something funny in SoftId 3150-3200, 3640-3720?

Still no masking.

Still no masking.

Eta softId 2150-2250 look even worse.

Either bad pedestals or significant drift for Eta softId 12750-12900, 13301-13351, Phi softId 300-450.

Between the first and last long run, Eta and Phi softId 16651-16800 died.  Most likely this means a dead module.  This explains the significant increase in dead channels over the course of the fill.

Oscillatory behavior now visible in parts of Phi RDO 0 (p. 44), 2 (p. 50), 3 (p. 53), 4 (p. 56), 5 (p. 59), 6 (p. 62), 7 (p.65).

Some pronounced sawtooth oscillations in RMS in Phi RDO 0, 1, 2, 4.

 Some channels now masked.

There appears to be a line in the ADC vs. cap plot for crate 20E at ADC~185.

Some channels in softId 3940-3980 seem to have displaced pedestals.

Still no masking.

Ped drift/bad ped/bad channel for Eta softId 300-400, 4200-4350, 13200-13350, 16050-16200, Phi softId 300-450, 13200-13350, 14100-14700, 15600-16050.

Eta softId 2150-2250 still pretty bad.

Oscillatory behavior in raw distributions and RMS persists (see above).

Band in ADC vs. cap plot persists (see above).

Potential bad channels in softId range 2650-2700.

Displaced pedestals in PSD 20E persist (see above).

Eta softId 8101-8150, 1801-1950, 12751-12900,  has badly displaced pedestals.

Oscillatory behavior in Phi crates persists and is even more pervasive (see above).

Band in ADC vs. cap for PSD-1E at ADC~180: could be associated with bad ped at 2660-2700.

PSD-20E pedestals look fine but there is still something strange: strong sawtooth pattern in RMS.
78-79 6 PM 10398 10078067 10078092,133 10079017,97 190,192 167,185 130,181 59,74 28,98 44,51 23,14 67,102 0,0 0,0 0,0 1,1

Significant Ped drift in Eta and Phi SoftId 13201-13350.

Oscillatory behavior in Phi Crate ADCs is gone (or at least less visible), but it persists in the RMS.

 PSD-20E still looks funny though sawtooth pattern less visible (possibly drowned out by a few large-RMS channels).

Bad peds for Eta softId 7401-7501, 13201-13350, 12751-12900, 12151-12300, Phi softId 13201-13350.

Eta softId 2150-2250 still looks horrible.

ADC oscillations in Phi RDOs are back in softId 4951-5100, 12151-12300.  Sawtooth oscillations in the RMS are also visible.

 see previous fill: also, bad peds for softId 3540-3620.

Very bad peds for Eta softId 8160-8190.

Eta softId 1950-2250 was very bad for early runs (thus the large number of bad channels): the problem seems to have been corrected by the end of the fill, though 2150-2250 look bad as always.

Usual problems with 12750-12900, 13200-13350.

See remarks on Phi RDOs from previous fills.

Line in ADC vs. cap at ADC~190 has for PSD 20E has (maybe) reappeared.

Comments for previous fill also apply.

 Ped-subtracted ADC vs. cap for RDO 4 has a surprising amount of counts for ADC <0.

Eta softId 8160-8190 still bad, 2150-2250 remains bad, 12750-12900 and 13200-13350 and Phi softId 13301-13350 still have problems, though not as serious.

New problems: Eta softId 13951-14050, 17350-17400, phi SoftId 10350-10450 has split peds.

Modules containing softId 5401-5550, and 16651-16800, died during the run. This explains the large increase in the number of dead channels.

Oscillations in Phi RDO ADC no longer visible but sawtooth oscillations in RMS remain.

  Line in ADC vs. cap not seen: otherwise, see previous comments about PSD 20E.

 See previous fill's list of continuing problems (8160-8190 and 12750-12900 excepted).   The problems seen in eta 13951-14050 and phi 10350-10450 in the previous fill remain.

New problems: eta+phi softId 5401-5550 has all values 0 (note that this means that this problem does not show up in the bad channel counts), a couple of bad channels in eta 14520-14525.

Phi ADC oscillations still not visible but RMS oscillations remain and the spikiness of the ADC distributions that I assume they are associated with is even more pronounced.

  See previous fill.

SoftId 16651-16800 turned off during the fill again.

See previous fill about BSMDP oscillations, except that oscillations are no longer visible in 12151-12300.

 See previous fill: also, lines are back and some ped drift has appeared in PSD-20E, explaining the increase in bad channels.

Crate 2 is back on.

Usual bad peds Eta softId regions, plus 350-400 (newly restored thanks to Crate 2 being back).  However, 2150-2250 looks better than it used to.

SoftId 16651-16800 turned off during the run.

BSMDP ADC oscillation visible again, see e.g. 7351-7500, 8401-8550, 8701-8850, 6601-6750, 2251-2400, 9451-9600, 13051-13200, 13651-13800, 14701-14850, 15151-15300, 15601-15750, 15751-15900, 16051-16200.

Now that Crate 2 is back, Eta softId 2101-2250 is still bad, but in a different way, with significant pedestal drift.

Eta softId 1470-1500, 6451-6600, 15301-15450, Phi softId 6451-6600 have bad peds.

Something is wrong with the module containing 16651-16800, but I'm not sure what: if it's the pedestals, they're not just displaced but are totally wrong.

Usual bad eta softId regions, less phi ADC oscillation but it's still visible in some places.

More values at high and low ADC than expected for ADC vs. cap plot for RDO 7?  Low values are probably due to a dead module.

Eta softId 1351-1500, 6451-6600, 13951-14100, 15751-15900 are fine but 1501-1650, 17101-17250 are bad.

Modules 16051-16200, 16651-16800 were apparently on for pedestals but off during the fill (strange, because 16651-16800 had been pretty consistently off over the past few fills).

The other three off modules are still off.

Only module 16651-16800 turned off during the run.

Oscillations in BSMDP ADC spectra seem a little more pronounced than they have been for the past few run.
