<p>We eventually got beam and started doing some trigger<br />
tests. We managed to run the trigger configuration<br />
from the previous run (fall of 2016). The detector<br />
performance looks Ok (data quality should be checked)</p>
<p>Run conditions:</p>
<p>3x10-4 amorphous radiator, 5 mm collimator, 200 nA<br />
electron beam current. The PS rate was about 1.3 kHz,<br />
should correspond to the photon flux of about<br />
1.5 - 2 x 10^7 photons/sec in the coherent peak (very<br />
crude estimates, to be checked)</p>
<p>The total trigger rate - 47 kHz, DAQ L.T. 97 %, the total<br />
data rate from the detector about 750 Mb/sec </p>
<p>run 30218 (production mode, about 130 M events)</p>
<p>The trigger/DAQ performance at this was rather stable<br />
(Fig 1,2,3), except for some 'periodic DAQ problems<br />
presumably associated with writing to disc, see<br />
Fig. 4 and Fig 5.</p>
<p>----------</p>
<p>Switching to the compressed readout mode for fadc250 and fadc125<br />
reduced the data rate from the detector (for this trigger<br />
type/rate) to ~ 500 Mb/sec (by more that 20 %)</p>
<p>run 30222 (production mode, compressed format)</p>
<p>We have observed some DAQ features:<br />
- The system hangs at download from time to time<br />
(crates don't hold the transition, presumably some scripts are running)</p>
<p>- Runs are written to wrong directories</p>
