Previous Day

Setup: iZIP mode, DIB1/2/3 → cables → 3.2 MHz filters → DCRC55/33/50
Cf source near detector for overnight activation.
0900 Tower/MC(H35)/MC sensor/Cold Plate = 34.5/28.642.8/171 mK, Still = 1.36 K / 0.12 mbar, G1/G2 = 110/90 mbar, 1K Pot = 1.72 K / 20 mbar, Main bath = 20.6%
0905 Fill LN2 cold trap Dewar.
0908 Start LHe transfer at 17.3%
1030 Finish LHe transfer at 71.4%
1200 Still cannot get any channels (including charge) to unrail on DIB2. Cannot connect w/ Labview because of network issues. Cycle power to DCRCs.
1215 After power cycling, DIB2 shows pulses and charge channels are fine! Adjust some Driver Offsets so that the few railed channels unrail, but other than that, everything's looking good.
1440 Edit ODB so 1000 randoms are taken before and after run (as well as during run at a 1Hz rate). Enable writing of data. We are ready to run. Move Cf source up to top of dewar shield.
1445 Start 30min Cf series at -4/+4V with FG=5/2/5, OG=3, with 1000 initial randoms, 1000 ending randoms, 30s flash and 25 minute cooldown before series. Trigger on DIB1 phA with threshold of 30ADC bins.
1549 Start 30min Cf series at +4/-4V with FG=5/2/5, OG=3, with 1000 initial randoms, 1000 ending randoms, 30s flash and 25 minute cooldown before series. Trigger on DIB1 phA with threshold of 30ADC bins.
1700 Start 13 cycles of 30min Cf series at +4/-4V with FG=5/2/5, OG=3, with 1000 initial randoms, 1000 ending randoms, 30s flash and 25 minute cooldown before each series. Trigger on DIB1 phA with threshold of 30ADC bins.
1705 Fill LN2 cold trap full.
