Chamber is currently being pumped down.

No Ta heat-shield wrapped (Want to check the temperature without it) 

One end-cap inserted on left (wrt ionizer into the page).

TGHT and TBHT will be ramped up to 820A/230A at 2A/min.

Vacuum at 2.3e-6 Torr.  HS water valve opened.  No leaks.

Initiated auto-ramping.

Target has been heated for 11hrs at TGHT/TBHT = 820A/230A.

Temperature measured with pyrometer:

Target leg = 1600C + (250 correction for e=0.25) = 1850C

Inside target material = dark, temp can't be measured.

Cooling down at 2A/min for TGHT and 1A/min TBHT.
