  175   Thu Oct 26 14:14:57 2006 Doug PreddyQuench Recoverypower lead quench
solenoid tripped on power lead temp. I was here and caught it. System 
cooling.
  176   Tue Oct 31 03:52:29 2006 Doug PreddyQuench Recoverypower lead quench at 2:30 this morning
Compressor still on. Starting flow to solenoid

  179   Fri Nov 3 12:09:51 2006 Doug PreddyNormal RunningFine tuning
The power lead temperatures have been climbing at a rate of ~ 0.02K very 8 
hours. The negative lead started to show some rippling this morning. The 
positive flow had dropped from >250mm to 240mm. I cycled CV142 and the 
temps dropped slightly. The negative ripple is gone and the positive flow 
is back to >250mm. 
  180   Tue Nov 7 10:35:32 2006 Doug PreddyNormal RunningMaintenance day
I ramped down the solenoid power suplly and shut off flow to the power 
leads. I will allow them to warm up and (hopefully) recover the flow rates. 
I am also regenerating the M9BCP@ cryopump.
  181   Wed Nov 15 11:09:28 2006 Doug PreddyQuench RecoveryCompressor tripped off
Compressor tripped this morning at ~8:45. I restarted the compressor, but 
turbine 1 would not spin up. I let it warm for an hour and it started. I 
started flow to the solenoind in parallel cold return.

  184   Tue Nov 28 10:32:04 2006 Doug PreddyQuench Recoveryrecovering after looong power outage
The power has been out for about 24 hours. Recovering coldbox, solenoid and 
beamline vacuum.PLC is down for the vacuum system. Started compressor and 
am flowing warm helium through the soleniod to warm it up while the vacuum 
recovers.

I have installed a new control computer at the M9 solenoid control panel

  187   Thu Apr 19 15:18:25 2007 Doug PreddyStart Uppreparing to start the refrigerator
Starting the vacuum systems in the coldbox and solenoid.
  188   Fri Apr 20 12:15:12 2007 Doug PreddyStart Upremote PLC switch
I could not control the vacuum devices using EPICS. The buttons could be 
pushed, but nothing would respond. The PLC was in local mode. Thumbwheel 
to 100, push On/Open button to put it into remote mode.
  189   Mon Apr 23 16:31:02 2007 Doug PreddyStart UpStarted compressor
Startewd compressor and purifer today.
  190   Tue Apr 24 10:21:49 2007 Doug PreddyStart UpStarted flow to turbines
Started flow to turbines at about 10:00 in parallel warm mode.
  191   Fri Apr 27 10:10:07 2007 Doug PreddyNormal RunningSolenoid Cold
Solenoid cold, power leads cold. Alarm handler started.
  193   Fri Apr 27 10:32:07 2007 Doug PreddyQuench RecoveryReset quench relay logic box
The quench relay logic controller was not functioning correctly. It showed 
a "Trip" light and no other lights. I cycled the power to the controller 
and it now seems to be working properly. This did cause a quench and I am 
now recovering the system.
  194   Mon Apr 30 09:30:26 2007 Doug PreddyNormal Runningproblems over weekend
The PLC Limit switch power supply was tripped off on Saturday. I came in 
and reset it and restarted all the vacuum systems that had tripped off. 
The power leads were found to be warming up. This morning they were at ~ 
45K. I stopped flow to the power leads and will allow them to warm up 
above 80K and then will recool them.
  195   Wed May 2 16:28:16 2007 Doug PreddyNormal RunningEnergizing solenoid to 500 amps
Power supply initially would not ramp up. I exercised the rate control 
selector switch and found that the power supply would ramp up at only the 
30 minute setting. It is ramping up at a rate of about 60 minutes.
  196   Wed May 16 10:02:35 2007 Doug PreddyMaintenancewarming up power leads
Power lead temps have been slowly increasing over the last wekk. I ramped 
the solenoid down and am warming the power leads to >80k.
