11:50 → 12:10 Discussion

12:10 → 13:40 Lunch - Restaurant 2

13:40 → 15:10 Presentation(s) by ZHAW and ESS & discussion

Presentations by ZHAW in which we would like you to answer us the following questions:
o Why do you want to use an SFP between SCU and DLN and optical diodes between DLNs?
o Can you give details of the hardware you have chosen for both systems – technical details of proto types?
o Why do you use frames between SCU and DLN – considerations of mixing safety information and monitoring information. Compare this versus using frequency for safety information.
o For the DLN loop, can you give details on the frequencies to be send around and detection algorithms?
o Details of your tests ongoing and results.
o Did you consider using copper loops instead of optical loops (other considerations than emc?)?
o On a different front: did you already make your choice of FPGA? What are your criteria? Any radiation constraints?

Speakers: Martin Rejzek, Stephane Gabourin, Valentin Schlatter
