    keyword=R-arm dipole update

    As the R-arm dipole plummeted to zero current we tried a couple times at
    Mark Steven's suggestion to reset it. The supply would "reset" but when we
    turned it on there would be a "power supply fault". So we waited for the field
    to get to zero which took 2 hours. Then we reset, turned on and tried to ramp up
    but at about 24 amps there was a "coil voltage quench". The dipole went to zero.
    At present we are slowly bringing up the current by hand. So far so good at 130 A.
