Title: Calibration in the Dark Room


1
Calibration in the Dark Room
  • Greg Hallewell / CPPM

2
Contents
  • What to calibrate in dark room?
  • Equipment needed
  • Deployment Schedule
  • Latest schedule ? deploys 12 lines (60
    Sectors) between 07/05 02/07 ? 1
    line (5 sectors) every 6 weeks
  • ? 1 sector / week
  • ALSO (rehearsal)
  • PSL2 Deployment 12/04, MILOM 03/05
  • (MILOM PSL2 Connection 03/05)
  • Parallel integration, calibration testing _at_ 2
    sites

3
Calibration Tests at Integration Time
  • Can test only one sector at a time
  • PMT Time Delay Calibrations using Nanolase 534nm
    lasers for each OM
  • Analog (Time Charge (?)) Measurements for ARS
  • ARS analog parameters and linearity data
    already in DB
  • Compass/Tiltmeter Calibration/Tests
  • Compasses pre-calibrated in factory no
    calibration tests before sea deployment (see
    3INS N02 02A, P. Keller V. Bertin 11/02/2004)
  • Tiltmeter offset ONLY to be calibrated wrt
    vertical with OMF held in simple jig decision
    09/03/2004 P.Lagier, P. Lamare, G. Hallewell)
  • Measure delays in Sheffield pulsers in each OM
    for
  • later PMT Transit Time measurement ( 60ns)
  • Offshore FPGA Coincidence trigger (Yes/No/How?)
  • Hydrophone Tests (?)
  • Transponder/hydro in contact in air, connected to
    clock system? Measurement of XMIT and RCV
    offsets?

4
Assumptions
  • Start point July 2004 (?)?LCM electronics PRR
  • Qualification (thermally, mechanically)
    stresses modules beyond norms of operation and
    production testing
  • Basis IFREMER protocols
  • includes soak cycles ? 40ºC, 15g/15ms
    shock test
  • Deployment electronics will be identical to
    that of the qualified LCM ? burned in
    vibrated(?) according to agreed protocol but not
    qualified!
  • Modules sent from LCM integration sites to line
    integration sites will be fully functional,
  • but not calibrated

System to measure time respoonses of OMs from
talk by Giovanni Lamanna
  • Motivation (see thesis of Sonia Karkar)
  •  Time calibration of the sectorline in the dark
    room 
  • Modifications
  • - move laser to new control room
    DONE
  • - remplace flower pot optical nosebags by
  • new system that doesnt require OMs to be
    mounted on OM frames IN PROGRESS
  • - optimise the laser system
  • 1) test strategy (t0 from the laser,)
  • UNDER DISCUSSION
  • 2) reproducibility of attenuation of
    beam intensity
  • APPROACH CHOSEN

Why an external reference ARS/LCM?
  • Calibration of Saclay CPPM Nanolase lasers
    wrt clock system
  • Redundancy of measure of PM TTs (in
    conjunction with Sheffield pulsers)
  • Easier calibration across sector boundaries to
    fill up CLOCK_PHASE DB table (dont need to
    elect a reference OM in every sector to
    measure relative to)

18
Cross-Calibration of OM Sheffield Pulsers
Clock System
Need to know Time delay of each SP wrt clock
(if SPs are used to verify Hamamatsu 10 PMT
TTs) (Rise Time 1.8?2ns, FWHM 4.5?6.5 ns) Jitter
typically 200ps)

Calibration of ARS systems
22
Time Calibration Strategy Proposal
  • All OMs simultaneously illuminated (ie single
    length optical fibres 30 ARSs active)
  • Step (1) After LCMs integrated
  • (cables connectedoptical fibres fusion-spliced)
  • Measure 2-way transit time to each LCM halve
    it for data to enter in CLK_PHASE table
    of data base 50 ps resolution
  • (more quickly done with external reference)

23
Time Calibration Strategy Proposal
  • Work with SPEs Data format spe_item
  • 1 byte header (which LCM/ARS)
  • 3 byte timestamp (25ns resolution)
  • TVC (1byte) precision 25ns/(8bitsv12) 30ps
  • Charge (1 byte)

24
Time Calibration Strategy Proposal
  • ARS TVC calibration
  • TVC ramps linear ? 255 over 50ns, but different
    slope origin for each TVC need calibration
    constants from/for DB (ARS_TVC_VALUES)
  • Re-measuring can be done for free using noise
    to randomly populate across the TVC window (in
    principle need only 2 points for slope origin,
    but will have many more)

25
Analog Calibration of ARS systems for DB
(ARS_AVC_VALUES, ARS_AVC)WILL PARAMETERS
(MEASURED _at_ SACLAY, BARE CHIPS) CHANGE WHEN ARSs
MOUNTED ON ARS MBs (parasitic C)?
  • Differential non-linearity/saturation of SPE-like
    signals (Q)?
  • Differential non-linearity/saturation of A/5
    signals?
  • Differential non-linearity/saturation of Dynode
    12 (No)
  • (A/16 signals)?
  • Calibrations performed at Saclay
  • Linear transfer functions need slope offsets,
    specific settings for each chip ADC_min value
    (offset)
  • 6 Thresholds (Trig_0 thresh, PSD_thresh, Dyn_th)
    gates(18), gainsoffsets(16), walk correcting
    parameters
  • ARS DNL (2x 256 parameters/chip put into data
    base)
