  • Met with Marko to discuss bugs in daisy-chaining - he suggested to test signals with oscilloscope.
    • Slowing down DCLK to 5MHz and shuffling board order had no effect.
    • Will meet Simon at UCL on 21st to debug daisy-chain with oscilloscope.
  • Continued work on USB interface:
    • Reset, Pause and Full-Scale Range commands can be sent from C++ macro.
    • Bash script can run DAQ and processing scripts simultaneously.
    • If file data is stored in is only opened one, DAQ keeps up with integration rate. Otherwise measurements are missed.
    • Still need to iron out a few bugs...
  • DAQ framework:
    • FTDI.cpp should write to a new file every 100 measurements, opening and closing each file just once to optimise speed.
    • WriteCSV.cpp should read each file, convert and average measurements, and overwrite a single-line CSV file.
    • Can then think about incorporating a fit and writing the fit results to file as well.
