I wish to have stereo audio output for the DAF module. Hence, there needs to be a second output from the DAF. I added this second output to the model. Following are the details:

FiBox: It consists of two analog inputs which are digitized and multiplexed and transmitted optically. (only 1 fiber is needed due to multiplexing). Attachment 1 shows the fibox with its 2 analog inputs (one of which, is connected), and 1 fiber output. The output of the DAF goes to the FiBox. Until today, the Fibox recieved only 1 analog input. This analog signal comes from the DAC-8 (count starting from 0), which is located at "CH 1 OUT" SMA output in the "MONITORS" bin on the racks (attachment 2).

I have added another output channel to the DAF model both in software and in hardware. The DAF now also uses DAC-9 analog output which goes to the second analog input of the FiBox. The DAC-9 output is located at "CH 2 OUT" SMA output in the "MONITORS" bin on the racks (attachment 4).

After making the changes, the Fibox is shown in attacment 3.

Testing: The LSC input on passing through the DAF block is given through two different DAC outputs, to the same Fibox channel (one after the other), and the output is heard. More concrete testing will be done tomorrow. It will be as follows:

1) Currently, I need to search for a suitable cable that would connect the second channel of the output fibox to the audio mixer. After doing this, end to end testing of both channels will be done.

2) I could not access the AWG, probably because the DAQ was offline today afternoon. Using a signal from the AWG will give a more concrete testing of the stereo output.

3) After this, I will separate the two channels of the stereo completely (currectly they are seperated only at the DAF output stage)

4) I also will edit the medm gui appropriately.
