Please check if:
- your name is assigned to the appropriate system
- your system is listed
- your system has or does not have changes (with respect to the 1st dry run)
- all appropriate names are associated with your system
- if you are available that day/time or need to switch to another day
- if you have enough time

green fields are AM, white fields are PM

 DAY 1

System	commissioner	comments	time	changes
WCM	Roger L	WCM in general tested: working properly, new scopes are working - some modification in labview code still to be done - connection with tape-sequencer to get timing for transition-mode - action item: new calibration factors need to be set (with beam!)	9:15-10:30	Y
ARTUS	Rob, Angelika, Kerry	test modified tune ADO (frev calculation) -- done test for reflected pulse: - unlock PS for measurements (done)	10:00-11:00	Y
DQmin	Joanne	take out PLL, Schottky was not updating, no scans done (not done)	10:00-11:00	Y
transition monitor (button pickup)	Mike Blasko, Angelika, Roger L	scope installed, connected to eathernet, data up-load time: approx. 2.5 min. action items: - locate hybrids, install - finish cabling, matching, trigger cables (done) - OR box for blue/yellow triggers (done) - ADO design (pet page), for day 1: labview: labview exists, manager software needs to be done - run analysis code on scope (likely after beam)	10:00-11:00	Y
BPMs	Todd, Al	new manager software - manager software not yet tested	10:30-12:00	Y
AtR	Nick T., Woody ...	new AtR manager was not ready for testing last time, testing was done with old manager, lattice matched to existing Au8 lattice. To do: - check new magnet manager (any old Au file is sufficient) - automation of emittance measurements from AGS & AtR still going on	10:00-11:30	Y
Schottky	Kevin	small software changes still ongoing, no updates seen in DQmin	1:30-2:30	Y
collimators	Angelika, Wenge	action items: - fix skew plane ADO home function (done) - fix one motion driver (done) - dedicated GPM for backgrounds (done) - one limit switch flaky (done) - start from tape-sequencer (done) - fix mechanical problem in one vertical collimator (in progress)	1:30-3:30	Y
gap cleaner	Angelika, Wenge	10 Hz duty cycle tested, operational action item: some small software changes in application to be done (make 10 Hz operational)	1:30-3:30	Y
Jump Watch	Christoph	done	1:30-2:30	done
LISA	Ted, Angelika	action items: cross section calculation	3:30-4:30	Y

System	commissioner	comments	time	changes/ status
Ramping Systems & online model	Al, Steve, Nikolay, Todd	orbitcalc: new library (version V2) feature: calculate tune shift from sextupoles after correction opticalc: new version V2 implemented: b* matching, offline model interface (SXF) to be done: new sextupole scheme - test sextupole polarity check script	9:15-12:00
BBQ, feedback, transition monitor, BTF	Pete C, Al, Carl, ...	to do: - Brho correction on the ramp - test of new tape sequences which make TF setup automatic       * turning off ARTUS and IPM       * automatically starting loggers       * automatically correcting tune, coupling at the last stone - test of TF abort tape sequences - confirming that wfg manager sets quad, skew quad wfgs into proper mode for TF - ramp with simultaneous TF and chromaticity measurement (new radius modulating script) - test of feed forward application - test of BBQ ramp FFTs, display in MCR etc. (ADO?)	9:15-4:30
bunch-by-bunch lumi monitoring	Dan, Angelika	check out application - timing in of signals, hardware check still needs to be done with Hank from STAR and with beam!	10:00-10:30	Y
e-detectors	SY, ...	check out, test monitors etc.	11:00-12:00	N
RHIC Injection	Wolfram, ...	event generation and detection, software changes?, new version with Au parameters released, no further testing was done (Injection kickers already tested, working properly)	1:30-2:30	Y
Sequencer	Ted, Jen, Todd, Molly, Nick K., ...	new C++ version: basic sequences already tested (Up, Down, Prep, Hysteresis) beam and pp related sequences were not tested transition timing for instrumentation to be done other?	1:30-4:30	Y
tape	Jen	combined test w. sequencer	1:30-4:00
store automation	Greg, Angelika, Ted	done: start collimation, gap cleaner, 10 Hz to do: start lisa from tape-sequencer, others?	1:30-2:30	Y
Configuration Control	Greg, Angelika	check status use in applications	2:30-3:00	Y
RHIC Chromaticity & Ramp Editor	Steve, Ted	implement 2nd and 3rd order chromaticity	3:30-4:30	Y
