Measurements and time details:
DOM integration  
              
12 h
Gel solidification
              
12 h
Green box closing and pre-setting
            
30 min
Set Gain (PMT on at Nominal HV for pulse mode operation)
Recover correspondance of number of PMT/base and mounting position from the Database
Wait conditiong of PMTs 
             
1 h
 
Functioning test of the DOM
 
using laser source
          
30 min
 
Wait or not 8 h? depending on integration schedule
 
A:Dark Current Rate (with glass and gel) 
          
10 min
 
Dark rate on all PMTs 
 verify the specs of the PMT (if not long dark adaption observe only large deviations of few PMts)
 
Mapping and relative time calibration 
 using 40 K coninc (see 
)
http://pi1222.physik.uni-erlangen.de/Qualification/24
 
TOT check using single photo-electrons from 40K
B: Laser calibration (absolute) 4 reference PMTs (far one from the other)  - 
      
2 min
     Laser triggered by GPS and amplitude set to 10 spe and 20 kHz
 
Check  absolute time on reference PMTs (TT or delta-T)
 
Check relative to absolute time for PMTs close to the fiber
 
Redo mapping and check with previous one
C:Functionality test of nano beacon
            
5 min
maximum amplitude @ 20 kHz
minimum amplitude @ 20 kHz
  
Check the nanobeacon  functionality
  
Redo mapping for PMTs close to the nano-beacon and check with previous ones
D: Functionality test of acoustic  reception (20,30,40 kHz, 2 amplitudes, acoustic emitter trigger GPS-PPS)
   
5 min
  
Check functionality of the piezo
  
rough estimate to sensitivity to different frequencies and measure of noise
  
check time correlation signal – master clock
D:Compass Calibration using rotating dish
          
15 min
 
 readout of AHRS > 1Hz, PC with RS232 to drive the step motor encoder
 
store compass data and AHRS data 
 recover the AHRS calibration matrixes
DOM Packing
                
20 min
