== Preparation ==
 
* DAQ: done!
 
      Hardware: Done! VME based: CPU(VxWorks) + TI + 2V792 + NIM modules ---> can handle 64 channels
 
      Software: CODA 2.6.2 is already installed, and configuration is done!
 
      Decoding is done!
 
*2D table: done!
 
      It can be operated interactively through serial connectors.
 
*MaPMT:
 
      H10966 on hand, from Wouter (W&M)
 
      H8500/10966 ---> Socket: "SQT-118-01-L-D SAMTEC"; 2 rows, 18*2 pins, 16 pins for signal, 1 of no use, others are GND
 
      V792 ---> Socket for "3431-5202 Header-type male connectors"; 17*2 pins, 16 pins for singal, 1 of no use, others are GND
 
*Black Box: done!
 
        Size: roughly 1m x 1m x 1m
 
*LED related issues: done!
 
      LED system specs:
 
            3 pulsed LED and 1 continuous LED
 
            BLUE light, 470nm(2.637ev), 20mA current
 
            nominal luminous intensity: 232mcd (232*1e-3*4pi/62)*6.2415093433e+18/2.637 = 1.1e+17 photon/s
 
 
== Test plan==
 
*1.Calibrate ADC channels
 
      Using a generator to produce a well known amplitude signal to calibrate ADC: ADC counts <-> Charge
 
      WaveTek model 80 from 3He lab
 
*2.Gain VS Voltage scan (H8500: -350V <---> -1100V)
 
      Relative gain VS voltage curve:
 
        Sinle channel measurement is enough
 
        Setup: LED -> fiber -> Any single pixel -> Readout
 
        Or no fiber: LED -> Any single pixel -> Readout
 
      Absolute gain calibration:
 
        Yi has a photon calibration tube, I can use it to calibrate the absolute gain.
 
*3.Determine a low gain range for SoLID preshower
 
      5E3
 
*4.Uniformity measurement at low gain case
 
      No fiber is needed in this test, open cathode
 
      Challenge: A uniform distributed light should be produced -> need to figure out,Yi has experience on this
 
      Setup: Uniform light -> open cathode -> 64 channels readout -> uniformity
 
*5.Cross talk measurement
 
      Size of a Pixel: 5.8mm X 5.8mm
 
      Setup: LED -> fiber -> pixel -> readout(surrounded pixels)
 
      As suggested by Yi, do a position dependent cross-talk study ---> scan fiber within a pixel to see the cross-talk effect
 
*6.Test with Pre-shower tile

*Uniformity test : [http://hallaweb.jlab.org/12GeV/SoLID/download/ec/teststand/PMT_test_updates_2014_6_17.pdf Uniformity_test]
 
*Gain measurement by using scope: [http://hallaweb.jlab.org/12GeV/SoLID/download/ec/teststand/gain_1.png plot] A typical signal of H10966 (Voltage = -450v):    [http://hallaweb.jlab.org/12GeV/SoLID/download/ec/teststand/signal_450v.jpeg signal]
 
*2014-5-14 [http://hallaweb.jlab.org/12GeV/SoLID/download/ec/teststand/2014_5_14.pdf pdf]
 
 
== '''Notes''' ==
 
*V792 Specs
 
      Input range 0 ---> 400 pC : 0 -> 2.5E9 electrons
 
      Gain per ADC channel: 100fC/channel  : 6.25E5 electrons/channel
 
      If we set PMT Gain to 5E3
 
        single photon electron location: 0.008*(amplifier) channel
 
        MIP location(assume 40 p.e):  0.32*(amplifier) channel (16 amplification--> channel 5)
 
*H10966 Specs (Wouter's MaPMT)
