  The SVT DSC has been asked to present our plans to the Electronics&DAQ WG. This is now planned for Thurs 5^th March 2026 (was 19^th Feb).
  
  The main issues are to determine what our requirements for slow controls of the SVT towards the DAQ group are. Items that I would like to address:
  
  Frequency of full threshold scans
  
  Frequency of "partial" threshold scans to monitor changing thresholds
  
  Frequency of Fake-Hit rate runs to determine noisy pixelsItems to monitor during runs
  
  Necessity of configuration scrubbing due to radiation upsets
  
  Bandwidth required for these various procedures (both for slow controls transactions as well as resulting data rates)
  
  Duration of the various procedures (how to modify the jupyter notebook from the MOSAIX documentation in that regard)
  
  Procedures necessary at every start-of-run / end-of-run
  
  How to handle the generation of SYNC signals to delimit readout frames
  
  etc....
