<p>Brad Cannon will be giving the TOF report at the
upcoming <a href="https://halldweb.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/GlueX-Collaboration-May-2017#Tuesday_May_16.2C_2017" title="GlueX-Collaboration-May-2017">collaboration

<p>When finals are over at FSU, Paul will make production
of the NIM paper a priority.

of minutes from the previous meeting</span></h3>
<p>We reviewed the <a href="https://halldweb.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/GlueX_TOF_Meeting,_April_18,_2017#Minutes" title="GlueX TOF Meeting, April 18, 2017">minutes from
April 18</a>.
</p>
<ul>
<li> <b>CAEN ADC</b>. Chris Stanislav could not find
the ADC in his lab. He is checking other locations.</li>
<li> <b>Lucite Shield Study</b>. Thomas notes that
there has been progress in the comparison, in other
contexts, of HDGeant vs. HDGeant4. He will re-try his
comparison for the Lucite shield simulation. He
remarked that the comparison effort could use more
people power. Beni mentioned that even with HDGeant,
the simulated detector response was never studied
carefully. He also announced that Brad has started
looking at efficiencies. Thomas will meet with Brad
and plan a study of simulated detector response, along
with the HDGeant/HDGeant comparison.</li>
</ul>
<h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Calibrations">Calibrations</span></h3>
<p>Beni has been hampered by farm jobs timing out after 72
hours of walltime. They should be complete before that.
He is trying to get finer-grained (time-wise)
calibrations for runs beyond about 30800. He thinks he
has found a way to get the farm to cooperate. If so, the
calibrations should be done in about a week.
</p>
<h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Active_Dividers">Active
Dividers</span></h3>
<p>Beni reports that the spare counter is still mounted on
the TOF. He will talk to Tom about moving it to the ESB.
</p>
<p>Vladimir Popov gave Beni board with 6 LEDs. Beni wants
to collect light from the device in a fiber and insert
light into the test counter. This will allow tests at
high rate. He plans to use a scope-as-DAQ to collect the
data.
</p>
<h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Counter_Reconfiguration">Counter
Reconfiguration</span></h3>
<p>We could not discuss this seriously without Paul, but
we agreed we need to start discussion soon because of
the long lead time and detector down time required.
