 After the manipulator repair Maico installed the NiO#2 onto the target module. Once connected I completed a leak test on the HS line with Isaac. The leak testing cart would not pump down originally (something wrong with the cart) but eventually it did start to work. The cart pumped to its lower limits and did not respond even with the module was flooded with helium. A electrical test was then conducted by myself and and Don Jackson (see attached). During the standard test the Target to Anode and to 60kV common read lower than expected at ~47Momh @ 1kV. Also of note during the conductance check the measurement from c-d was low at 1.82 mohm.

3  additional tests were completed 2 of which were coil to common (both sides). The resisance was measure at 47 ohm with the megger and 1.32 Kohm with the uohmmeter. The coil lines lines were also measured to get and indication of the resistance of a copper line. These lines were measured while they were not jumpered both the coil + and coil - measured 5.73 mohm.

A meeting with Lia and Friedhelm was held and and the decision was to move the module and test it in the conditioning station. Fingers crossed that the module will still work.

Maico finished installing the cover today for the module to be moved. Other elogs cover the other activities for today.
