    Entry number 349010

    keyword=Swing Shift Log

    16:00 Take over from Day Shift TO who had been watching the target cool down. So now we'll watch the target cool down! Target temps Loop 1: 25.6 K, Loop 2: 24.5 K and falling. Pressures falling as well. The hall is still in Controlled Access and we are waiting on the Compton region vacuum to recover. HRS-L keeps beeping, just like yesterday. Yep, it's the same VCD drift chamber voltage!!!

    17:15 Low D2 gas pressure gas panel alarm. Called JP and RC for guidance.

    17:34 Meekins just went down to the hall bearing a gas bottle...

    17:51 The D2 gas alarm is off!!! Meekins saved us! Vince, however, now tells me that the DAQ doesn't work. That's not a good omen.

    17:55 Loop 1 (LD2) is back on PID. Now we're just waiting for the LH2 to finish cooling down.

    19:13 Beamline vacuum problems persist. But the Loop 2 target (LH2) is just about ready to go back onto PID!

    20:17 Loop 2 (LH2) is back on PID after fussing with the JT's a little.

    21:10 Called MCC to get a status update on the vacuum. They can send us beam as long as we don't need to go through the chicane. We don't so they're going to start moving beam back to the BSY.

    21:35 MCC calles to let us know that they will be sending tune beam.

    22:05 Requested 5uA empty target for harp scan

    22:55 Checked up on MCC with respect to the harp scan. They're having problems. The beam profiles are giving them all kinds of trouble. They'll get back to us.

    23:18 The L-VDC Top beeping is driving us nuts!

    23:36 Still no word from MCC on the harp scan.

    00:00 Handed over the shift still waiting on the harp scan.
