3. Introduction • This document describes the types of crates and modules composing the “off-detector” readout system for the GTK subdetector. • The DCS should perform a set of standard control / monitoring functions on the crate power supplies of the “off-detector” electronics. The “off-detector” GTK readout card (GTK-RO) will also monitor some local variables whose status could be monitored by the DCS and this document provides a list of such variables. • This document does not cover the topic of configuring the Gigatracker ASICs (“TDCpix”) configuration. The Gigatrackersubdetector PCs will maintain the information concerning the configuration and the status of the TDCpix on the GTK stations and the handling of these parameters will then be covered in a separate document. “off-detector” readout electronics for the Gigatracker (GTK_RO): status report DCS Meeting, CERN (vydio), Jun 25th 2013, A.

4. Types and quantities of standard VME crates • FourVME crates located in the farm room: they are one each in rack S16 and S14 and two in rack S15 (of the 2 in rack S15 one if for the GTK-RO cards and one is for the main timing unit) • The characteristics of the VME crates (all are the same) for the “off-detector” electronics are summarized in the table below: “off-detector” readout electronics for the Gigatracker (GTK_RO): status report • Controls to be performed on each crate: • the standard remote controls: • power cycling • crate wide reset (not mandatory) • and monitoring: • supply voltages and currents (only +5V and +12V are used by the GTK-RO cards) • temperature • fan speed • should be sufficient: • Cables: • the standard for the type of the intelligent fan tray listed above (0F00.0600) DCS Meeting, CERN (vydio), Jun 25th 2013, A.

5. Types and quantities of standard VME crates • Crate denomination: • Referring to the layout of racks in the PC farm room, the racks assigned to the GTK-RO systems are J04, J05, J06 and J07, the last one hosting fibers patch panels and ethernet switches.
