[Matteo, Eleonora]

On Friday 19/08 we recived from Kamioka one AA module and two BNCtoDsub converters. 

Last week we have installed the AA into the DGS rack and did some cabling from this rack to the cleenrrom as we blan to install the BNCtoDsub converters into the clean room rack.

We took a power supply from ATC and use it to power a KAGRA DC power strip (also taken from ATC). We use the strip to power all the two AA, the AI and the DAC dSub->BNC converter (not that ADC BNC-> dSub converters don't need power.)

We reorganize the cables behind the DGS rack to make them more tidy.

We also removed one ADC PCiexpress card from the new DGS computer (the one we couldn't make work) and installed it into the standalone PC we are currently using.

The standalone can host up to 4 card and we have currently installed two ADC an one DAC. The slots are piled up in vertical. From the bottom we have 

1) ADC 1 (used for local controls)

2) ADC 2 ( not used, it will be used for AA signal)

3) DAC

4) empty

In the future we can decide to put another DAC or another ADC in the empty slot. According to Miyakawa-san all the possible combinations of 4 PCie among ADC and DAC are fine with the excepion of 4 DAC.

We took an additional timing adaptor from ATC which we used to provide the timing signal to the new ADC card.

We haven't tested the new ADC but the system seemed to work fine after these modifications. We didn't experienced any trouble until the failure of last friday (26/07).
