Subject: JEM-X Monday Meeting 2007-08-27
Date: Mon, 27 Aug 2007 14:15:20 +0200 (MEST)

Participants: SB, JC, NL, CBJ, NJW:

JEM-X status (SB): The previously reported hotspotting has now disappeared
since revolution 594 (incl.). Anode status is not wellknown since detector
pattern has changed in a way so that comparisons with earlier backgrounds
are insecure.

DPE crash 2007-08-11: Anomali report. Buffer overrun in common services
software seems to have caused it. Apart from a couple of hours of down-time
there are no detected consequences.

MOC team change (SB): Mike Walker takes over the MOC duties for JEM-X.
A coordination meeting is planned in the fall.

Upcoming Crab calibration (SB): We should ask for 10 ks on-axis with as
much telemetry as possible (12-13 packets per cycle). Or, we can get
this with possibly less telemetry rate (leading to greyfilter interaction)
but over longer time.
Additionally we suggest a pattern shift between the 5x5 pattern cycles
from year to year, e.g. by 10 arcminutes.

OSA status (JC, NL, NJW): j_ima_mosaic-7.0.1 was upgraded to 7.0.2 with
better initialization. Stephane Paltani's report on j_ima_iros-2.1.0 results
revealed that there are some problems with JMX2. There is a need for
an update of various parameters.
j_ima_src_locator-6.4 seems to operate well enough.

Key programs have just started as well as Galactic Bulge Monitoring.

Moving Monday meeting to another day of week(all): Will be considered.
