    <p>We have tested performance of the L1/DAQ at<br />
high rate.</p>
<p>Setup:<br />
-------</p>
<p>Trigger type: </p>
<p>25 FCAL + BCAL > 45000<br />
PS</p>
<p>Configuration:<br />
All detector, reduced size of readout windows,<br />
compressed mode for fadc 125, 250 </p>
<p>block level 40, buffer level 4<br />
Trigger holdoffs correspond to fa125 requirements</p>
<p>Beam conditions:</p>
<p>e current - up to 500 nA<br />
radiator - JD70-100 (58 um)<br />
collimator - 5 mm<br />
converter - 75 um Be</p>
<p>------</p>
<p>Some results:</p>
<p>Not stable DAQ performance was observed at the<br />
trigger rate of about  70 kHz (probably at smaller<br />
rates as well). The beam current corresponded to about<br />
300 nA.</p>
<p>Fig. 1  Live time at the trigger rate of 70 kHz</p>
<p>Fig. 2  Saturation of output buffers<br />
        (when live time drops at the previous plot)</p>
<p>Fig 3. Data rate from the detector (about 1 Gb/sec)</p>
<p>Performance of the readout electronics (read out all<br />
modules from the crate, transmit only TI blocks through<br />
Ethernet links) was found to be stable</p>
<p>Fig 4. Live time (no Ethernet transmission except TI<br />
                  blocks)</p>
<p>The live time decreases to about 70-75 % when the trigger rate was<br />
increased to 90 kHz (400 nA current), see Fig 5.</p>
<p>Crates with the largest data size are:</p>
<p>TAGMH 28.5 k<br />
TAGH1 27 k<br />
TAGM1 38 k     (data rate ~80 Mb/sec )</p>
<p>Note, size of the readout window should still be optimized<br />
We also need to check threshols for the microscope</p>
<p>Excluding these crates from the configuration improved the<br />
live time by 3-5%</p>
