Description
The RF acceleration (ACS) and transverse damper (ADT)
systems will supply post-mortem data at various
acquisition rates. The PLCs controlling the power
systems acquire at a few Hz, while high-speed
digitizers and acquisition buffers embedded in the low-
level hardware acquire transient signals at 80
MSamples/s over time periods ranging from a few
milliseconds to several hundred milliseconds. The high
speed acquisitions in particular will result in high
volumes of data, and some local data analysis and
reduction may be necessary to alleviate this. An
overview of the available data signals will be
presented, along with tentative requirements on data
analysis, logging and alarms.
