ODC Master Prototype Tested on Test Stand
We developed and tested a prototype ODC Master model for use in the corner station on the Test Stand.  Screenshots of the model are attached.  

We tested that the 32 bit word calculations all work properly, including the new C library part used to take the BITWISE AND of multiple inputs.  

We also tested the updated C library part for setting a high-order odd parity bit in a 32 bit integer channel, and showed that it worked properly.  

We plan to migrate the new code for ODC Master to the OAF FE machine next.

Additionally, we carefully tested the new DAQ channel type setting "uint32".  We found that the data appears to be written to disk properly in binary, but FrDump and the python FrUtils both display the data as signed integers, so a value of uint32: 2147483654 becomes int32: -2147483642.
