Started the cooldown.

Turned off the HV and the optics in the first section. Couldn't turn off the optics in the second section: left a message for Evgeniy.

        RF: 800kHz, 20Vampl, 0.128mA

        HV cage locked up for heating

Wednesday, March 20, 2013, 16:42: heating is taken care of by ISAC operations, now at 300A / 3V TGHT  and 250A / 1.47V TBHT reading on the panel is really close

        Friedhelm restarted some of the CANBUS ports, since not all optics were working properly

Thursday, March 21, 2013, 10:53 start cooling down

       Vacuum not perfect was around 2E-6T, over nigth not full current

       Suppression tested yesterday: full beam (SRC +3V, others GND) was 40nA, while no signal on FB0B with SRC +3V, IGOffset&Exit +25V

       !!!!! but short on #7 --> 2nd Repeller, was OK when tested, after some minutes on 25V short was there, reading now (Thursday, March 21, 2013, 10:58 ) <1OHM, will be checked while heating down

       Magnet had wrong polarity - so no mass scans yesterday evening, Friedhelm looked into this this morning

      Mass scan only for good transmission mode (SRC +3V) this morning - see attached scan (seen Na, Al, K, Ca, Cr, Rb, Sr, Cs and Ba)

       NOTE:  the legs of the target are glowing differently, the left leg (view from the lid side onto the target unit) glows brighter, this side was open during the sintering process of the SiC and needed more alignment at the jig --> see attached picture

       NOTE2: there is a slight increase in TGHT voltage over time: in ~ 22h from 7.201V to 7.216V

April 2, 2014:

- did a mass scan. NOTE: data is shifted by 10-15%.

plotdump-local-clean.txt_Apr2_14_16-33-19.txt

After the scan finished I found the Test Stand EPICS screens whited-out. Decided with Friedhelm to leave it as it was for the night and to contact Controls next day to reboot it without tripping the heaters and the HV.

April 3, 2014:

Found everything recovered. Except: “SOURCES ARCH IS RUNNING” was red. So, I restarted it. Jane Richards and Friedhelm didn’t do any IOC reboot. Also found that the data from yesterday’s scan was saved (see the previous scan).

Did another mass scan:  plotdump-local-clean.txt_Apr3_14_10-18-13.txt

NOTE: data is shifted by 10-15%.

Cooling down .

HV and Heaters Conditioning had finished. The target was cooled down and it's ready for the on-line installation.

Friday, May 16, 2014, 11:56: TBHT to 290 A

Friday, May 16, 2014, 14:12: Started cool down. ANODE/CATHODE Bias requires reconfiguration.

Tuesday, May 20, 2014, 11:10: Ray and co is checking the configuration and troubleshooting the burnt off GND connection. The Test Stand will be configured to CATHODE negative BIAS.

Tuesday, May 20, 2014, 12:35: BIAS, EZL, EE, COIL, ANODE ON.

Tuesday, May 20, 2014, 12:35: Gas lines pumped.

Tuesday, May 20, 2014, 12:35: Auto heating to 240A/500A at 1A/2A /min.

Tuesday, May 20, 2014, 12:44: IV4 opened 

As per Friedhelm the conditioning settings are:

TGHT 580A

TBHT 290A

COIL 80A

ANODE 200V

Ramped up completed:

TGHT 580A/5.683V

TBHT 242A/2.295V (EPICS settings) and 289A/2.29V at the PS

COIL 80A

Current on the Anode = 13.431mA

The target assembly did not pass the megger test between anode and heat shield after the previous conditioning. The AlN insulators were found to have failed during the conditioning. The coil insulation was burnt. AlN insulators and anode ware replaced.
