Monday, February 08, 2021, 11:45: Vacuum @ 6.70e-06T. Open waterlines

Monday, February 08, 2021, 11:49: Vacuum spike. Turn off IG1 & turbo pumps. Will vent to swap gaskets.

Monday, February 08, 2021, 12:45: Venting.

Swap & tighten.

Tuesday, February 09, 2021, 00:46: IG1 @ 2.14e-6T. Auto-ramping to 580/230 @ 2A/min

Tuesday, February 09, 2021, 07:17. Anode got current limited again when TBHT/TGHGT were @ 215/215 A.

Tuesday, February 09, 2021, 08:32: BIAS / EE / EZL @ 20 / -1.5 / 10 kV

Tuesday, February 09, 2021, 09:02: BIAS / EE / EZL @ 30 / -2.0 / 13 kV

Tuesday, February 09, 2021, 09:16: BIAS remains @ 30 kV. Adjusting Optics, EE, & EZL to tune. Minimal beam on FC0 noted.

Tuesday, February 09, 2021, 10:02: HV off. Check Anode & down stream.

Tuesday, February 09, 2021, 10:36: Auto-cooling @ 4 A per min

Tuesday, February 09, 2021, 10:40: Aborted. TGHT / TBHT back to 580 / 230 A. A few more checks.

Tuesday, February 09, 2021, 10:58: Auto-cooling @ 4 A per min

Tuesday, February 09, 2021, 11:08: HV off.

Tuesday, February 09, 2021, 13:41: Power / sources off. FS#5 closed off. Turbo pumps off.

 FM.

After inspecting the ion source, and revising the electrical connections, I suspect that the TBHT was floating all the time and only when it was in contact with the plasma electrode it held HV.

When the plasma electrode was removed, there was no reference whatsoever, and the ions were not extracted.

It seems then that the resistor R4 (ISK4562D) is necessary to provide a reference to the TBHT  in a similar way R1 provides one to extraction electrode.

Tuesday, February 09, 2021, 20:52: Installing R4. If the anode works this time, it will be worth checking why this reference is necessary. From the electric diagram, the chassis ground should be HV ground.
