====== Collection of BI Projects in the Past ======

===== Years 2015 - 2016 =====


Todo list from first meeting with CSCO on "Agenda 2017" (11 May 2015): {{:projects:todoliste_agenda2017_sitzung_11mai2015.docx|todo list}}

At present various projects and activities require a substantial re-work of the existing BI equipment at GSI. The activities which require support by the BI team are:
  * Agenda 2017 / Control System Retrofit by CSCO department
  * GaF: GSI-Anbindung an FAIR project with implications on SIS18 installations
  * The results of the FC2WG team (FAIR Controls and Commissioning Working Group)
  * Requirements presented during the HIC4FAIR Workshop in Hamburg [[https://indico.gsi.de/conferenceDisplay.py?ovw=True&confId=3368]]
 
==== Beam Instrumentation DAQ Upgrade and Control System Retrofit ====
Starting in Feb. 2016 a sequence of bi-weekly project meetings has been set up in order to organize and prepare for the required upgrade of diagnostic devices.\\
The working title of the project is for time being: **BIDUCOR** (**B**eam **I**nstrumentation **D**ata acquisition **U**pgrade and **CO**ntrol system **R**etrofit).\\
Apart from the preparation of presentations and meeting minutes the goal of the meetings is to collocate information on the various diagnostic systems and to generate a central document containing all relevant technical information about the required upgrade measures. At the moment it is foreseen to create two documents, one for BIDUCOR-SIS18 and one for BIDUCOR-HEST.

Special topics related to ESR Beam Instrumentation are collected [[projects:bdupgrade:esrupgrade|here.]]

===== Meeting #1: 23.02.2016 =====
Participants: HR, BWH, AR, PK, TG, TH, OC, MSchw\\

==== Summary ====
  * MSchw presented the main goals for setting up this new project.
  * The various requirements from CSCO, FC2WG (R. Steinhagen) and LOBI regarding an upgrade of BI devices in 2016-2018 were discussed.
  * Technically, the meeting focused on the BI systems DCT, FCT and LASSIE (see remarks added to the presentation)
  * It was agreed to schedule the next meeting in 2 weeks, to proceed with the brain storming about SIS18 components.
  * In the upcoming meetings the upgrade of HEST components will be treated as well.
==== Action Items ====
  * prepare information on SIS18 BI systems not discussed so far: Tune, Schottky, SPEKY, SIS-Radio, TOPOS, Screen, Profile grid
  * further elaborate on the open questions addressed in the presentation

===== Meeting #2: 10.03.2016 =====

==== Summary ====
  * MSchw summarized again the main goals for the new project.
  * Relevant issues of the last meeting with regard to DCCT, FCT and LASSIE were repeated.
  * Subject of this second meeting were the BI systems SIS-Radio, BBQ, BTF-Exciter, TOPOS and SPEKY.
  * The discussion yielded that the amount of available budget has to be considered as an important boundary condition for the upgrades.
  * Purchase of new/additional hardware needs to be considered for each BI system individually. 
  * In the upcoming meetings the upgrade of HEST components will be treated as well.
==== Action Items ====
  * prepare information on SIS18 BI systems not discussed so far: IPM, Screen, Profile grid
  * further elaborate on the open questions addressed in the presentation
  * after this first brainstorming sequence detailed schematics for each system have to be prepared.
