[Dsg-halla_gem] CAEN VME Interface

[Aaron Brown]

Hi Zeke,

I'm not aware of any CAEN VME interface. I'm not saying that one doesn't exist, just that I've never needed to use one.
Are you using the module in a CAEN crate?
If you are, I would imagine that you would be able to log into that crate via GECO and interface with the module that way?

Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Best,
Aaron

Hi Zeke,

Aaron Brown and others in our group work with CAEN using GECO. He may be able to point you in the right direction. I am forwarding this to our group.

Hi Marc,

I am trying to debug a weird behavior I am seeing in a CAEN V6521N HV module that we use for some GEMs. I am not entirely convinced either way that the problem can be pinned down to a software issue or a hardware issue. I have no good reason to believe it is a hardware failure. Similarly, the software has given me little issue up until now, but it is an in-house script that was made in probably 2012-2014.

Ideally, I am looking for a CAEN VME Interface so that way I can connect the HV module I have to the interface and then use the more modern GECO software. Hopefully this can either confirm/deny the software end of my current predicament. I have some ideas as to what could be going on hardware wise, I just have yet to check them.

Do you by chance have a CAEN VME interface I could borrow or know where I could find one?

Thanks in advance,
Ezekiel
