  114   Thursday, June 28, 2012, 17:00 Pierre Bricault LP-FEBIAD    In progressCathode heater reached its value of 230 A and stoped. good test.

Now ramp cathode current up to 290 A. The total current out is 1.e-7 A.

 

  115   Thursday, June 28, 2012, 17:18 Pierre Bricault LP-FEBIAD    In progressLeave the cathode heater at 275 A overninght.
  116   Friday, June 29, 2012, 08:57 Pierre Bricault LP-FEBIAD    In progressContinue cathode heating

 This morning the pressure was 3.5E-7 T. Current at 275 A is 30nA.

Continue cathode heating to 290 A during meeting.

Start seeing some electron current from the cathode around 275 A.

  155   Thursday, August 09, 2012, 13:08 Pierre Bricault       Test FEBIAD

Waiting Rick for the fitting on the vacuum pump.

The helium bottle was found empty.

Rick will refill it and hook the leak detector on the system to find out

if we have a leak on the line.

Rick put the helium bottle back in the rack.

Waiting for status of the gas lines.

 

  160   Friday, August 10, 2012, 15:29 Pierre BricaultNALP-FEBIAD  NANA finishing the gas installation and its pump

1524H Start small pump.

1529H stop the pump.

 

  161   Friday, August 10, 2012, 15:57 Pierre Bricault        

Test high voltage to 30 kV ok

Test gas valve open at 6.1 V

Test Ne leak ok

Will run test from home.

  163   Saturday, August 11, 2012, 16:18 Pierre Bricault       Test FEBIAD anode biased at 120 V

The ramp up finished.

I have 3.35E-6 Amp out of the source on FC0.

Vacuum  4.3 E-7 T increase Coil current to 40 A. No effect on vac.

Increase coil to 50 A. Vacuum still good.

I will continue from home..

  164   Sunday, August 12, 2012, 21:50 Pierre Bricault      In progressTest FEBIAD

Lost communication with EPICS. Came in reset the ...

So far no luck.

 

  165   Sunday, August 12, 2012, 22:07 Pierre Bricault      In progressFBIAD test

The reset restored the control.

But magnet supply does not put any amperage out.

Try turning it off and on. No chance.

I gave up. See tomorrow.

  167   Monday, August 13, 2012, 10:59 Pierre Bricault      Problems/SolutionsTest FEBIAD

This morning I try to contact PS group no one answer. Dan Louie is in vacation.

I went into the can diagnostics panel and reconfigure MB1 power supply.

This worked.

 

  168   Monday, August 13, 2012, 14:26 Pierre Bricault      In progressFEBIAD test

I am done with the FEBIAD test (anode biased)

We will swap the bias now to the cathode and change the polarity to negative.
