Geoff Savage WA104/ICARUS Technical Working Group Meeting 11-Dec-2019

Control Room Operations Working Group

• 15-Nov-2019 – I sent an email to Claudio suggesting we start an
• perations working group.

– “The mandate would be setting up documentation infrastructure for shifts and computers in the control room. The software infrastructure for control room operations requires a significant amount of work.”

• The verbal response shortly after was yes, form the working group, with

some good suggestions.

– Narrow the scope of “operations”. – Start the group with senior people leading. – Write down to goals of the WG (I see that my mandate is not coherent.)

• Diana and Bruce started working on setting up the control room.
• We are still working on the goals
• We had our first meeting this week on Monday 9-Dec.

The brief history of the Control Room Operations WG

12/11/19 Geoff Savage | Control Room Operations WG 2

• Identify and implement the technical aspects of operating the Icarus

detector from ROC-W and from remote control rooms.

– Hardware - computers, monitors – Software

• Shift communications (zoom, slack)
• DAQ communications (ssh tunnel, vpn, vnc, authentication)
• DAQ software (run control, art daq, monitoring)
• Event display
• Be ready for cool down operations

– Display internal cryostat parameters – temperatures and LAr level – Operate DAQ to readout 6 tpc crates

• This group will not determine when a shifter is qualified to take a
• shift. Nor will it determine when a remote control room is ready for
• shifters. Nor will it determine the shift quotas for collaborators.

Control Room Operations WG Goals

• Space allocated in ROC-West is for the SBN control room with Icarus as

the first occupant.

• Right now Nova test beam is using the SBN control room space that will

eventually be used by SBND.

– Nova test beam runs for another 6 months.
