Previous Day

Current setup: iZIP mode, DIB1/2/3 → cables → 3.2 MHz filters → DCRC55/33/50.
Overnight: Last flash at 7:40. Tower temp began to increase at around 6:45 - before that it was around 31 mK but rose to 32 mK by 7:50
0820 Tower/MC(H35)/MC sensor/Cold Plate = 32.2/26.0/41.0/153 mK, Still = 1.23 K / 0.11 mbar, G1/G2 = 125/125 mbar, 1K Pot = 1.70 K / 17 mbar, Main bath = 15.8%
0830 Start LHe transfer at 14.9%
0840 Fill LN cold trap Dewar
0845 Remove Y source from fridge, return to safe
0927 Finish LHe transfer at 79.2%
1128 Start 1000 randoms of 20ms trace length background data at 400/-400/400uA QET bias (except for DIB1 phA = 500uA), 0V Qbias, with all phD channels set to FG=1/1/1 all other phonon channels set to FG=5/2/5, OG=3, 2000 events/file.
1215 Since autorun was on, the run only lasted 30 minutes before flashing, which gave it enough time to take ~500 randoms. We'll have to take more…
1224 Start the second round of 500 randoms of 20ms trace length background data at 400/-400/400uA QET bias (except for DIB1 phA = 500uA), 0V Qbias, with all phD channels set to FG=1/1/1 all other phonon channels set to FG=5/2/5, OG=3, 2000 events/file.
1255 Start 1000 randoms of 20ms trace length background data at 400/-400/400uA QET bias (except for DIB1 phA = 500uA), 0V Qbias, with all phD channels set to FG=15/5/15 all other phonon channels set to FG=5/2/5, OG=3, 2000 events/file.
DIB2 pD is railed, so change Driver Offset to fix that and stop data.
1256 Start 1000 randoms of 20ms trace length background data at 400/-400/400uA QET bias (except for DIB1 phA = 500uA), 0V Qbias, with all phD channels set to FG=15/5/15 all other phonon channels set to FG=5/2/5, OG=3, 2000 events/file.
1356 Start 1000 randoms of 20ms trace length background data at 400/-400/400uA QET bias (except for DIB1 phA = 500uA), 0V Qbias, with all phD channels set to FG=25/5/25 all other phonon channels set to FG=5/2/5, OG=3, 2000 events/file.
DIB2 pD is railed, so change Driver Offset to fix that and stop data.
1359 Start 1000 randoms of 20ms trace length background data at 400/-400/400uA QET bias (except for DIB1 phA = 500uA), 0V Qbias, with all phD channels set to FG=25/5/25 all other phonon channels set to FG=5/2/5, OG=3, 2000 events/file.
1455 Start 1000 randoms of 20ms trace length background data at 400/-400/400uA QET bias (except for DIB1 phA = 500uA), 0V Qbias, with all phD channels set to FG=5/2/5 all other phonon channels set to FG=5/2/5, OG=3, 2000 events/file.
1610 Main bath = 71.1%
1610 Start 1000 randoms of 20ms trace length background data with all phAs and phBs at transition QET biases, phCs at 400/-400/400uA QET biases (normal resistance), and phDs at 0uA QET biases (superconducting), 0V Qbias FG=5/2/5, OG=3, 2000 events/file.
1635 After data's finished, fill LN2 cold trap full.
