keyword=Right Arm VDC bad HV cable
One of the SHV connectors on the high voltage cable from the power supply
to the chamber was bad. The VDC had no high voltage on the wires, hence
no output. I replaced the connector. It looked like the old connector had
the dielectric too long and the braid was barely crimped in the
collar/ferrule. Over time it must have worked loose. The connector up by
the Bertan supply, labeled "Bottom", also looks questionable and needs to
be re-made at some point.
