10 detector cartridges have been installed: 8 in the vertical plane, 2 at Dipole locations
We expect to install the remaining 8 in the July 2002 shutdown

Detector InstallationDetector Installation
FPD
• All 6 castles with 18 Roman pots comprising the FPD were constructed in Brazil and have been installed in the Tevatron in fall of 2000.
Quadrupole castle A2 installed in the beam line.

Detector SetupDetector Setup
FPD
At the University of Texas, Arlington (UTA), scintillating and optical fibers were spliced and inserted into the detector frames.
Detector AssemblyDetector Assembly
FPDDetector MappingDetector MappingAfter the detectors were assembled and polished, an optical scanner was used to map the exact location and width of the fibers in the frames to improved detector calibration.
FPD
The two-part cartridge houses the detector and phototubes and allows for easy access to PMT’s.
The Cartridge top fits over the bottom and is secured down causing good contact
between the tubes and frames
Detector CartridgesDetector Cartridges
FPD
The plastic frames containing the other end of the fibers are attached to the
cartridge bottom.
Detectors in Detectors in CartridgesCartridges
The cartridge bottom is installed in the tunneland the detector is pushed to the bottom of
the pot.

Installed CartridgeInstalled Cartridge
FPD
All 18 cartridges are assembled. Ten cartridges are installed:
• 6 of them are in their final configuration:
P1D, P2D, A1D,A2D,D1 and D2
• 2 of them contain prototype detectors: P1U and P2U. Prototype detectors are the first detectors produced and not of high quality as later ones (we will keep them as spares)
• 2 of them are pseudodetectors (trigger scintillators only): A1U and A2U
All the MAPMT’s and L0 detectors weregrouped according to their characteristics
In February the installation of the remaining four detectors of Phase I will be completed
Cartridge StatusCartridge Status
FPD
In the October shutdown four veto counters each of which cover 5.2 < || < 5.9 were installed between DØ and the quadrupoles, about 6 m from the interaction point.
VETO COUNTERSVETO COUNTERS
FPD
The counters, two each on the outgoing proton and anti-proton arms, can be used to trigger on rapidity gaps.
FPD
POT MOTIONPOT MOTION
Pot motion is controlled by an FPD shifter in the DØ Control Room via a Python program that uses the DØ online system to send commands to the step motors in the tunnel.
FPD
LVDT (Linear Voltage Displacement Transducer)connected to the castle measure the actual pot displacement and return values giving the distance from the “Home” position of each pot.

Pot Motion SafeguardsPot Motion Safeguards
•The software is reliable and has been tested extensively. It has many safeguards to protect against accidental insertion of the pots into the beam.
• The drivers are disabled with a switch in the Control Room when the pots are not being moved.
•The pots are hooked to an emergency line which bypasses the software to send the pots back to the home position in case ofemergency (tested but not used).

Effect of the pot motion over the proton and antiproton losses at D0 and CDF
We should not affect the losses more than 20% under the risk of make the beam unstable

CHAINSCHAINS
FPD
We are working on commissioning the standard Run II DAQ. The most recent progress was the construction and installation of the Transition Patch Panel and combs.
Standard DAQStandard DAQ
We are working on the DFE FPGA logic and awaiting our complement of AFE boards,integration with DØ is scheduled over the next3 months.
FPD
STAND-ALONE DAQSTAND-ALONE DAQ
•Due to delays in DØ trigger electronics,we have maintained our standalone DAQ first used in the fall 2000 engineering run.
•We build the trigger with NIM logic using signals given by our trigger PMT’s,veto counters, DØ clock, and the luminosity monitor.
•If the event satisfies the trigger requirements, the CAMAC module will process the signal given by the MAPMT’s.
•With this configuration we can read the information of only two detectors (currently PD spectrometer is read out).

Elastic Trigger Logic
FPD
The Trigger Scintillators were plateau using elastic events in a three fold/four fold basis:
Plateau Curves
FPD
A problem we had in the tunnel was due to noise caused by the (WWII surplus) low voltage power supplies used for the amplifier boards. They induced a current in the cables that added an extra peak in pedestal distribution.
Problems …Problems …
FPD
•The problem were solved by adding a new rack at each pot station in the tunnel with new high quality LVPS and isolation transformers (this configuration also isolates Tevatron and DØ noise sources).

The principals advances in Software development were made in:
•Unpacking
•Tracking
•Single Interaction Tool
•Alignment
•Gap Tool
•Database
FPDPlans and MilestonesPlans and Milestones
Take more data with Stand Alone DAQ with this configuration, then switch detectors to readouts (still for elastic events)
Take diffractive data.

Prepare for the July shutdown: installation of the horizontal plane
FPD
•Tremendous progress in installation and commissioning
•Entering a new FPD era: Installation of Phase I complete • Emphasis shifts to software, operations, and data analysis
•Trigger hardware and firmware still a major concern
•Starting to think about physics a little!
