1. pedestals - not needed offline because ZS mode subtracts ped(chan,capID)
  2. status table
    • input : all BEMC triggered events in special streams (need energy in SMD to see broken/hot strips) , expected 5 Hz *12 hours/day=200k events/day, no BFC production
    1. step 1: find dead strips, look at strip response if BTOW cluster is found, strips w/o saturation peak are dead
    2. step 2: find hots strips - Joe will think how
    3. step 3: kill sparse working strips to unify working & not working area of BMSD and avoid artificial peaks
    • processing use Matt's code to get spectra , 1 hour of work per day * 30 days , WHO?
    • latency : 1 week, starts March20
  3. relative gains: common eta dependence for 150 strips in all modules using 2008 dAu slopes calibration
  4. absolute calibration: common 10 calibration constants from 2008 pp isolated gammas calibration , see fig 4.2
  5. Relative calibration based on pp500 data from 2009 has been finished by Willie http://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/blog/wleight/2009/aug/07/determination-bsmd-relative-gains , August 27, 2009
