| TM#3 with NiO#2 has been moved to the south hot cell from the conditioning station. |

|
The first attempt at HV conditioning of TM3 with the new source tray and NiO#2 target installed. Conditioning so far has been very slow, with the
current increasing quickly to a maximum of 400uA. Voltage in these cases was lowered until the current was below 200uA. Attached is the raw data. It appears
the source tray and target are conditioning just there is either something burning off or there is localized poor vacuum. |

|
Following the helium pressure test Don attempted to connect to the RGA via the network. He was unable to do so. This scan was desired so a pre
and post water scan could be compared to indicate if there was any leaking. It has been decided to carry on as the HV and HP tests are of greater importance.
Don will continue to investigate the RGA. Travis inspected from the conditioning station roof and determined that the RGA is getting power. |

Thursday, September 26, 2013, 14:47, Bevan Moss, Conditioning Station, Maintenance, TM3, NiO#2, Water pumps turned on
|
The water pumps for the conditioning station were turned on at ~11:45. It took longer to start the conditioning station as the air from the leak
test had to be bled off and the make up water tank refilled. The valves on the water supply line were closed slightly to make up for the fact the water
cooled power supply has been removed. DIF2 was installed by Maico so we can measure the flow in the primary side. |

September 24
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 |

The containment box cover has had all the bolts installed and all bolts were checked with a mirror. TM3 has been raised and is ready for the last
electrical test before it goes to the conditioning station. |

The right manipulator A-9885 Handle Cable Assembly has been repaired by Maico and myself. We repaired the manipulator following
some verbal instructions from Chad on the modified repair strategy. This allows the repair to be completed without going into the hot cell. The instructions |

|
Electrical check was done on TM#3 yesterday and again the coil lines to the 60kV common and the coil line to each other failed, as in they had a resistance.
Everything else passed as showing an infinite value, all meggering was done at 1000V unless noted other wise. See attached PDF for details. |

Today was a trying day. When attempting to make the water line connections for the window the VCR seal fell off several times. Each time this
happens the seal becomes stuck at the bottom of the containment box. While trying to replace the seal the nut slipped down the line to the bottom of |

|
This morning, Bevan and I leak checked window circuit on TM3 at SHC after containment box was installed. It took about 20minutes to pump down the circuit
to 0.0xE-9atm.cc/sec. Bevan sprayed helium on both VCR joints and a final splash. No response had been found on leak detector. |

September 18th
The wiring harness was completed by Maico and Travis today (see pics) and was installed into the target module. During installation the bracket
went on with ease. The junction box appeared to be hung up on something but did engage eventually. The plug for the collimator is not quite long enough |

Electrical check of TM#3 with no target was performed and it failed. There is a 135M Ohm short
between the coils and a 165M Ohm short between the coil and 60kV common. All other circuits passed they were infinite in value. |

Leak checked TM4 coil1 in SHC with Isaac . The leak detector only can pump down to 1.5xE-7 atm.cc/sec. The leak detector got the response once the helium
valve is open, not even close to the leak area. The leak detector got a very big response when the helium probe was put close to the coil terminal block
on target front side and spray helium for 2 clicks. The leak detector got a small response when the probe was put close to water block area and spray |

I leak checked TM3 water lines at CS with 60 psi and 80psi helium. The base leak rate is 5.0xe-9 atm.cc/sec. Each circuit 3 minutes helium pressurizing
for each time test. No any respose had been found on leak detector during the test. See attachment |
