Joe and Ray found and fixed a bug in the LBW8 frequency switched mode and the VEGAS online data display
VE-358: Astronomical commissioning
Ryan has discussed plans with the scientific staff and asked Toney to schedule time for motion tests
Ryan will test all pulsar modes and do A/B tests on a bright HI source, and with a test tone injection, for FSW and TP spectral line modes 1, 4, 10, 15, 20, and 29
VE-359: Compare pulsar mode data to compare with GUPPI
This is in progress for data Ryan took during the Thanksgiving shutdown
VE-360: Acceptance testing
See VE-358
VE-361" Add in FITS MR into M&C
Joe added a table to the VEGAS engineering FITS files containing the location of the VEGAS ADC spurs
This was part of a previous MR and will be released with the new M&C release
VE-368: Add utils into repo
Ryan has done this
Joe is going to work on an install script
VE-305: Update release notes
Ryan still needs to do this
VE-312: Matrix spectral line regression testing
This has been done as part of preparations for the M&C release
VE-356: Troubleshooting performance issues
This is related to times that the net thread seemed to be overrunning the GPU thread
Getting inconsistent bandwidth to GPU
Joe is happy with how this looked during M&C release testing
VEGAS Pulsar Project Meeting - Sprint Planning: 2017 December 18th 2:00 - 3:00pm ET
Note: The team's "velocity" has been consistent at 11--13 points per sprint. We should aim for 12 points per sprint for planning purposes.
Joe will be moving on to 20-m work during the next quarter.
Ryan will support the planned release of the HBW modes and work on any additional tasks as possible
Not much additional work is expected during FY18Q2
