1 sguazz 1.1 \section{Integration Procedures}
2     \label{sec:Procedures}
3 sguazz 1.4 TIB and TID have different integration procedures, each one being optimised
4     for the geometry and the best installation and test logical sequence.
5     In this section the steps done to assembly a TIB shell and a TID
6     ring will be described also mentioning the tests done in between and
7     described in detail in section~\ref{sec:Tests}.
8    
9     The integration process starts from the basic mechanical structure
10     already equipped with cooling pipes and the module support ledges
11     and fully qualified with respect to the precision mounting of the
12     mechanical parts and cooling performances.

14     \subsection{TIB Integration Procedures}
15    
16 sguazz 1.4 The shell is fixed with the cylinder axis horizontal onto an
17     integration bench by an aluminum frame which minimizes the mechanical
18     stresses. The bench allows the shell to be rotated around the cylinder
19     axis and is also know as ``roaster''. All the internal and external strings can be
20     positioned in an optimal way for access in a fast, practical and safe way.
21    
22     The shell supporting structure also holds a system consisting of plastic
23     trays to safely arrange the AOH fibres. To easily identify each string a bar code is temporarily stick on the
24     structure.\\
25     %The string sticker is read and send to the integration database interface program
26     %before each mounting operation.\\
27 lino 1.2 A picture of a Layer 4 mechanical structure mounted on the integration bench is shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:bench}.

40 sguazz 1.4 \subsubsection{AOH Installation}
41 sguazz 1.1 The small AOH board ($3\times 2.2 cm^2$)
42     is simply screwed to a C-shaped ledge which is directly glued on the string cooling
43 sguazz 1.4 pipes. Due to mechanical constraints, the
44     fibers and their connectors should be carefully routed to the outside of the shell through a
45 sguazz 1.1 number of ledges, holes and pipes keeping
46     them as close as possible to the carbon fiber structure surface to which they are finally fixed
47 sguazz 1.4 using glued kapton strips. The main part of the pig-tail fibers
48     remains out of the shell and is temporary stored in the plastic
49     trays. The optical connectors are inserted
50     into arrays of dummy optical plugs fixed at the far-end of the
51     structure to be always accessible during the various tests which
52     require many connect-disconnect operations.\\
53    
54     Since the optical fibers are quite fragile, special protections have
55     been arranged in the most critical points.
56     For example at the shell flange the fibers have to be bent and
57     routed with other services. There they are grouped together and
58     covered by a silicon rubber spiral as shown in (see
59     Fig.~\ref{fig:spiraline}).
60    
61     The procedure resulted to be very effective: only few fibres out of
62     several thousand were found broken at the end of TIB/TID integration.
63

83    
84 sguazz 1.4 Since the AOH is powered by the module kapton tail its test without
85     the corresponding module is not straightforward. So it has been choosen
86     not to test AOHs after their installation, despite the
87     operation of changing a broken AOH when the modules are already
88     installed is very cumbersome and somehow risky for the nearby objects
89     already mounted. Eventually, the number of AOH that had to be replaced
90     was anyway very small, at the level of one per shell/disk.
91 sguazz 1.1
92 lino 1.3 \subsubsection{Mother Cable Installation}
93 sguazz 1.4 The Mother Cables are put in place after the AOH
94     mounting and all the optical fibers have been fixed to the shell and
95     adequately protected where needed. The mother cable is inserted below
96     the ledges by sliding them on
97     the shell surface from the end flange. The ledges support keep the
98     mother cable in place (see~\ref{fig:l3detail}). This procedure is in some cases complicated by mechanical
99 sguazz 1.1 constraints at the level of the shell front flange, where the mother cables are entered in the shell,
100     and cooling manifolds. When the Mother Cables are inserted they
101     are connected to the power cables (medusa cables) which are temporary fixed to the shell supporting
102     frame. \\
103 sguazz 1.4 The {\em medusa cable} is just a bundle of single insulated wires with
104     no definined envelope and geometry as a standard cable. This helps in efficiently
105     use the very limited available space on the TIB front flange
106     % allowing
107     %to 'distribute' the cable among the other services. \\
108     To ease the implementation of the control ring redundancy, CCUs are
109     put in the ring with a defined hardware address order. So, for each
110     string position in the ring, care must be taken to choose the proper mother cable,
111     that comes with the CCUM already on it.
112     %, has to be provided with a
113     %CCU whose address is in a fixed order with respect to its position in
114     %the token ring.

124 sguazz 1.1
125 lino 1.2 \subsubsection{Module Mounting}\label{sect:tibmodules}
126 sguazz 1.4 Both single modules and double sided module assemblies are mounted on the shell by hand.
127     The module is supported below the front-end
128     hybrid and on the opposite side by two ledges support that precisely
129     define the module position and act as heat sink
130     %for the front-end hybrid and the sensor generated power
131     being in contact with the cooling pipes.
132     The shape of the ledges is different for the single sided modules and
133     for the double-sided module assemblies. In the latter case the
134     ``stereo'' module sits on the structure upside-down and the ledge
135     below the hybrid has a milled slot to ensure enough room to the
136     front-end hybrid. The ledge on the opposite side has two different
137     shapes reflecting the two orientations of the ``stereo'' modules.
138     Each ledge has two M1 threaded holes. One is concentric with a 2mm
139     diameter socket.
140     The module features one precision pin on both short sides that fits
141     into the socket (Fig. \ref{fig:insets} c). The milling of the socket and the glueing of the
142     ledge onto the shell is done by using the same reference, i.e. the
143     ledge edges, so to ensure an accurate positioning.
144     The module pin at the hybrid side is glued onto the module frame. The
145     one at the opposite side, however, fits into an 'U'-shaped
146     slot a design that allows for movements along the module long side. In
147     a device that will be affected to huge temperature changes, this is an
148     essential feature to compensate for thermal variations while ensuring
149     mechanical precision.
150    
151     Before mounting a module on the shell the structure is rotated to place
152     the corresponding string in a confortable and horizontal
153     position. Then the module inventory database is queried for an
154     appropriate module. The answer depends on module type and availability
155     at the integration centre and on the module depletion
156 sguazz 1.1 voltage (see par.~\ref{sec:biasandvdepl}). \\
157 sguazz 1.4
158     The module identified for mounting then undergoes an optical
159     inspection to check for obvious damages and the temporary labels used
160     during the production are removed. Finally the module and ledges
161     contact surfaces are inspected and cleaned to ensure an optimal heat
162     exchange with the cooling circuit. The operations that imply the
163     handling of the modules are very delicate and account for
164     a considarable fraction of the time spent into module mounting.\\
165    
166     The single sided module or the double side modules assembly is mounted
167     on the structure by hand. It is first leaned onto the ledges and then is
168     gently slit until the pin at the hybrid side enters into the precision
169     socket. Now can only the rotation around the pin axis is possible.
170     The mounting is completed by inserting in the corresponding precision
171     socket the T-shaped aluminum pin placed in the U-shaped slot
172     (Fig. \ref{fig:insets} b) located on the frame short side opposite to
173     the hybrid. The module is finally tighetned by the four M1 screws by
174     using a limited-torque screw driver.

183     \label{fig:insets}
184     \end{figure}
185    
186 sguazz 1.4 The clearance between the module most fragile parts (bondings)
187     and the other surrounding structures when the operation is performed (cooling pipes and ledges of the
188 sguazz 1.1 adjacent strings and modules already mounted) are, in case of single-sided modules,
189 sguazz 1.4 sufficiently large for a safe operation. For the double-sided module
190     assemblies the cleareances are much reduced, of the order or less than a millimeter.
191     In this case, to ease the mounting, a simple mechanical guidance
192     template has been designed to further reduce the risk of possible
193     accidental damage of the microbonds or the sensor.
194    
195     Once a module or a double sided assembly is mounted its basic
196     functionality is tested by feeding low voltages and checking I$^2$C
197     communications with the various devices present on the hybrid, the CCU
198     on the mother cable and the AOH. This also allows the module identity
199     to be certified by using the DCU hardware ID.
200     Once a string of three or six modules is completed the I$^2$C
201     communications are checked again and a pedestal and noise run is taken
202     with a HV bias at 400V. For the tests complete description see
203     section~\ref{sec:Tests}.

205 lino 1.3 \subsubsection{Control Ring Installation}
206 sguazz 1.4 The control electronics that supervises the control ring, i.e. the
207     DOHM boards and in case the AUXs, are located on a carbon fiber skin
208     are mounted on the shell external surface just above the modules by carbon fiber pillars and aluminum supports (Fig. \ref{fig:dohm}).
209     A thin aluminum foil has been glued on the skin and electrically grounded
210 sguazz 1.1 to reduce possible interference between the logical control signals and
211 sguazz 1.4 the module analog electronics. All mother cables are then connected to
212     the DOHM (and AUX) ports by using a set of appropriately terminated
213     flat-cables that have been preprared before, on the empty structure,
214     by using dummy replicas of the DOHS/AUX boards and mother cables.
215    
216     Each shell needs of three to six Control Rings, generally
217     differing also withinh the same shell with respect to the number of
218     served strings and the geographical distribution of these strings
219     into the shell.
220     For example, Layer 1 and 2, which are equipped with
221     double sided modules, have control rings of 3 to 5
222     strings, while Layer three and four have 13 to 15 single sided strings.\\
223     \begin{figure}[!htb]

231 sguazz 1.1 \end{figure}
232    
233 sguazz 1.4 As can be seen in Fig.~\ref{fig:dohm}, due to the variable number of strings connected and their
234     different positions with respect to the support
235     mechanics and cooling, each control cable have a different length and shape and
236     should be tailored in-situ to minimize the path satisfying all the mechanical constraints.
237     Each control cable path has been optimized as a consequence of the
238     very limited room available for services.
239     For layer three and four the part of the control cables
240     which is not protected by the carbon fiber plate
241     is shielded using a thin Aluminum foil.\\
242     The $4 \times 2$ optical fibers, which connect the two DOH to the FEC,
243     are cerefully routed and protected at the flange. In fact the
244     redundancy architecture allows the ring to work also if the connection
245     to the master DOH fails, but the price to pay if both DOH connections
246     fail is of the order of 1-2\% of the entire TIB.\\
247     The DOHM cabling is completed by the power cable, very similar to the
248     mother cable 'medusas', and by the wiring of two PT1000 temperature
249     probes per control ring that comes already glued on the cooling manifolds.
250     The four probe wires are in fact routed through the DOHM via the Control
251     Ring power cable up to the power supply racks where the interlock
252     boards are also located. The four-wire resistance measurement
253     of the PT1000 is necessary to avoid the contribution of the
254     40 meter long power cable.
255     Also a humidity meter is hosted on the DOHM board; it is read out
256     through dedicated wires on the Control Ring power cable.
257    
258     A thinner carbon fiber skin is used as a protecting cover. Electrical
259     shielding is ensured by an aluminum foil glued to the cover and
260     grounded (Fig. \ref{fig:dohml1}). Finally the control ring is tested (see section \ref{sec:Tests}).\\ .

270    
271 lino 1.2 \subsection{TID Integration }
272     The integration of the TID rings has required the design of a handling tool that
273     allows safe and easy manipulation of the mechanical structure, allows access and integration
274     on both side and provide support for the long optical fibers associated with the AOH and the DOH
275     of the DOHM. Moreover it should allow the assembly of rings into a full disk.
276    
277     The handling tool is based on a aluminum crow plate with different mounting positions for: ring
278     holding towers (4 to hold each ring) to adapt to any of the three different rings; U-shape
279     feets to allow the placing of the ring front side upwards or downwards; stocking cylinder where to
280     place and hold the long fibers; aligning jigs with pillar to allow to pair together two crowns
281     and join pairs of rings together to allow the assembly of ring into a disk. The handling tool will be called
282     in the following as {\it integration crown} and it is shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:ringbench} for different configuration:
283     for a R1, R3 rings on the front side and a R1 for both sides.
284    
285     The integration crown was made as light as possible, but rigid enough not to add mechanical stress to the
286     ring or the disk, during the manipulation, specially during rotation
287     of the structure (made manually using two handles) and the
288     assembly of rings into a disk. Weight????????

305     Once a new ring structure arrived, it was mounted on an integration crown. In order to identify easily the mother cable positions
306     during the integration bar code stickers were temporarelly glued to the ring. The integration work was made
307     in parallel on several rings and disks at different steps of integration, therefore several integration crowns were used.
308    
309     TID cooling ledges for the AOH could arrived with a bending angle outside specification, due to manipulations
310     of the ring and some touching that do not compromise the mechanical integrity of the cooling pipe.
311     The clearance between parts in a disk is very small, in particular silicon sensors have a minimal distance of 2mm between
312     AOH cooling ledges between ring 3 and ring 1, therefore mechanical checks were made and adjustment applied if needed.
313    
314     \subsubsection{Services Installation }
315     The first step of integration was the installation of the services. For the TID a problem to be solved was the routing out of the optical fibers of the DOHs and AOHs: all fibers have to exit from the TID at specific positions relative to holes on Service Cylinder.
316     To do that, a set of AOHs associated to each mother cable was found, all fibers were prepared to form a unique bundle that
317     could be easily routed in the ring, holding together fibers using silicon rubber spirals. The same was done for pairs of DOHs going to the same DOHM.
318    
319     All mother cables were prelimanarly tested in a dedicated test bench. The ring integration begin installing all four
320     mother cables on each side of the ring: they were placed and screwed to the ring and equipped with
321     CCU with the proper $I^2C$ address. The connector of the mother cables reach the outermost radius of the ring to allow the connection to the power cables.
322    
323     Then the DOHM was fixed: for R2 and R3 the addition of a cable was needed in order to allow power connection at the outer radius of the ring. The ground of the DOHM was connected to a cable to reach the outer ring radius and will be used to make a unique grounding line for all TID+/-. Then the DOHM was equipped with a proper CCU and with the needed two DOHs: their fiber were routed out properly and attached to integration crown via the stocking cylinder.
324    
325     The control ring cables that connect DOHM to the mother cables were pre-formed in advance and were mounted and adapted into the ring. A
326     complete functionality test of the control ring was then performed to verify that the main control ring and the redundancy were working
327     fine.
328    
329     Two temperature sensors PT1000 were finally glued to the cooling manifold and connected to the DOHM.
330    
331    
332     Details of the DOHM integration can be seen in the Fig.~ref{fig:tiddohms}.

343    
344     Mounting of the AOH followed, screwing them temporarelly to the cooling ledge. The fiber lenght closes to the module was hold in place using foil of kapton properly shaped and glued to the ring. Then fiber bundle was routed up to the outmost ring radius at the position where the mother cables connectors are, and they are mechanical hold there by a kapton foil screwed to the ring: the remaining lenght was then fixed to the stocking cylinders. Some of these working solutions are in shown in Fig.~\ref{fig:tidfibers}. All

355    
356     \subsubsection{Module Mounting }
357     The mounting of TID modules follow exactly the same procedure explained in the TIB section~\ref{sect:tibmodules}.
358     Module mounting in rings is easier than in shells, since modules with following azimuthal angle are placed in opposite sides
359     of the ring. Neverthelss a lot of care was still needed: the precision pin was often very tight and the
360     module cometa was placed on the U-shaped slot and hold down by the side precision insertion pin. Sistamatic
361     checks were made on the electrical connection of the module ground with the carbon fiber.
362    
363     Once a full mother cable was ready, several test as exaplined later in the paper. To perform the noise test,
364     the entire ring was darken and measurements were done, first without bias and then with bias up to 100V to check
365     good high voltage connection and that no evident physical damage was done to the silicon module.
366    
367    
368     \subsubsection{Assembly of rings into a disk }

408     \subsection{Integration Database}
409    
410     Each active element, cables included,
411     of the CMS experiment is identified by a bi-dimensional, radiation resistant,
412     bar code which is glued on the component itself redundantly coding a 14-digit number.
413     For the tracker the registered components are:
414     detector modules, AOHs, DOHMs, DOHs, CCUs, Mother Cables,
415     optical fibres and ribbons, power and control cables.
416     Using this code the object characteristics and the results of the tests previously performed
417     during the production phase, can be retrievied from
418     the Tracker construction database~\cite{ref:database}.
419     Of equal, or even more, importance are the component
420     mounting locations and the connections between them.
421     This information is stored on the integration database at integration time.
422     Moreover the integration database acts also as an inventory to locate the components among
423     the various integration centers managing the shipping procedures.
424     It also contains a subset of the test data of all the
425     devices and their functional status (good, broken, mounted, dismounted, etc...).\\
426     Along with module tests results also an important number is stored for each module:
427     the hardware identifier of the DCU chip
428     embedded with the module (or DcuHardId). This code can be retrieved during data acquisition,
429     allowing for an unambiguous identification of a module.\\
430     A TIB/TID specific key was defined to store the location of mounted devices (named Geographical
431     Identifier, or GeoId): it is a string
432     composed of numerical fields separated by dots, as described in Table~\ref{tab:geoids}.
433     Bar code stickers with the GeoId are glued on the mechanical structure
434     before the integration starts (Fig. \ref{fig:stickers}).

442    
443     The first 7 numbers in a GeoId identify the string to which a device belongs, while the last
444     part of this code represents the physical location where the device is placed.

467     %The first number identifies TIB (1) against TID (2),
468     %the second number marks the forward part (1) vs. the backward (2). Hence TIB and TID codes become
469     %different. For TIB the third number identifies the upper/lower shell (1,2) and the fourth is
470     %the layer index (1-4).
471     %The following numbers represent if a device is placed on the inner or outer surface of a shell,
472     %the cooling manifold a device belongs to and the string index insidethe same manifold.
