 When the target was removed from the test stand it was discovered that the custom designed insulator stand-off (ITD0400 made from Mycroy 1100) had swollen and become discoloured in the area exposed to "heat shine" from the target oven. See attached pdf for photos of the insulators.

The heat shield lid was opened up and the target temporarily removed to replace the two insulators that had failed. These were replaced with the commercially available glazed steatite stand-offs. The target had some marks from the insulators which was cleaned with acetone and methanol.

After replacing the insulators, the target assembly was assembled, leak checked and a new electrical check was performed.

Did the HV conditioning.

Heaters conditioning in progress.

The Hall probe is not working: couldn't pass 35.5 units (readback) or 50.16 units (setpoint) at field -3710G.

Tried to turn ON/OFF magnet PS and to reboot Canbus, but nothing worked. Still waiting for E-Fault 6031 to be resolved.

Started cool-down.

Did the HV conditioning for the TiC#3 up to 30kV.

Heaters ramp up in progress.

Entry  Thursday, November 01, 2012, 14:57, Aurelia Laxdal, TiC#3, LP-SIS, ITW, TM1, , , , TSH:TGHT readback stopped at 264.5A (for a higher setpoint) 

The TSH:TGHT stopped at 263.7A, but the setpoint is still ramping (now at 421A). The voltage is set correctly: have 6.238V setpoint and 4.386V readback. The reading on the Power Supply shows 418A. Through the window the target assembly looks at high temperature. The readback on Epics seems stuck. E-Fault for Controls 6389
