Richard, Sean, Hovanes, et al.,<br>
<br>
First let me apologize for my mistake in attribution in the minutes. Richard checked in the changes to have HDGeant get the bunch frequency from the CCDB, not Paul. Thanks to him for doing that. I will amend the minutes presently.<br>
<br>
As far as what the frequency actually is now, yesterday Paul said that he had just come from a "master oscillator meeting" and that we are running at 2 ns bunch spacing. I have the utmost respect for both Paul and Hovanes, but they can't both be right here.

Thanks, Hovanes, for clearing this up, and sorry for the confusion. I will update CCDB accordingly.

<div>Hi Sean, <br>
MO signal that we have is at ~499MHz (and it will be prescaled before arriving to TDCs to much lower frequency),
<br>
but the beam bunches themselves should now arrive to Hall D and the tagger hall at ~249MHz frequency.

<span>Review of minutes from April 15</span><br>
<br>
We went over the <a href="https://halldweb.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/GlueX_Offline_Meeting,_April_15,_2015#Minutes" title="GlueX
Offline Meeting,
April 15, 2015" target="_blank">
minutes from last time</a>. <br>
<br>
David gave us an update on his Geant4 implementation. He as put in the FDC and FCAL and can reconstruct tracks in the FDC with resolution comparable with those found with HDGeant. He ran into an issue with multi-threading; a bug report has been submitted to
the Geant4 Collaboration. <br>
<br>
<span>Offline Monitoring</span><br>
<br>
Kei reported he has run over most of the files collected in the last week of data-taking. The volume of data is small, it only takes a few hours to run over everything.
<br>
<br>
We then discussed doing a final run over the Fall data so that people can use the data to prepare for the collaboration meeting. There is a change to get the setting of the F1-TDC parameters from the CCDB that Justin checked in yesterday. There are also new
TOF timing constants that we are not taking advantage of yet. In addition Lubomir also has new FDC alignment numbers. For all of these reasons a re-run seems desirable but time is running short to have the data available in time to be useful. We agreed on
a launch time target at the end of the day on Friday. <br>
<br>
There was a bit of discussion of what data we have from the current run. Most of it is in run 2931, which is contained in just over 100 files and has about 75 million events. Data were taken in mode 7 with an FCAL-BCAL trigger.
<br>

<span>Spring 2015 Commissioning Simulations</span><br>

conditions</a> he is proposing and solicited feedback. The software has been tagged but not released. Paul noted that the nominal position of the coherent peak is 3.4 GeV. The gxproj4 account will be used to run the jobs.
<br>
<br>
On a side note, Mark has put in a request to the Computer Center for a <a href="https://halldweb.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/GlueX-related_shared_accounts_on_the_JLab_CUE" title="GlueX-related
