Troubleshooting
- The start and end of run entries do not show up in HALOG:
- Make sure you have waited long enough. Automated entries take a while to show up in the HAlog.
- You want to quit coda, connect to adaql2 as a-onl using ssh, and restart coda. Yes even if you are already connected on adaql2 as a-onl, the ssh part is what you need here.
- If you hear an alarm with a very deep voice, read this [logbook entry.]
Beam Recovery Procedure
Update: October 24, 2010.
- Empty target, establish correct beam position
- 5 uA empty target
- BPM4A (X,Y) = ( 0.0, 0.0) mm
- BPM4B (X,Y) = ( 0.0, 0.0) mm
- See white board for updates on these.
- Tolerances on these : +/- 0.3 mm
- In standard configuration we run without the raster (ok on cryotarget if beam current is less than 5uA)
- Put in BeO target, for visual check of spot (if camera still works)
- 10 uA rastered beam on BeO.
