    keyword=Attempted Harp scans

    As a test, we attempted a harp scan while waiting for the VDC gas volume to refresh.

    As Eugene commented, we had no information as to which scanners were to be utilized. The harp scan tutorial from LEDEX indicates Harps 5&6, but when we brought up the Harp scan control window, the only option we had was Harps 1&2. We did not have the experience to go into the expert mode and set up Harps 5&6, so we ran some scans with Harps 1&2 as a trial.

    The runs were:

    1569 (JUNK) - Gain too high (saturated)
    1570 (Saved) - Gains OK but signals look awful (very noisy)
    1571 (JUNK) - Operator error

    In the end, I do not think were accomplishing anything useful, so we asked MCC to secure from this exercise.
