Previous Day

Setup: DIB1/3/4 → 3.2 MHz filters 2/3/1 → cable 3/1/2 → gender changer 3/?/2 → HVConn 1/3/2 → HV 1/2 → DCRC55(1)/DCRC50(3)
DCRCs powered overnight, zero bias
0920 Tower/MC/Coldplate = 39.7/31.8/175 mK, Still = 1.15 K / 0.110 mbar, G1/G2 = 144/146 mbar, 1K Pot = 1.52±0.01 K / 7.0±1.0 mbar. MB = 38.6%
0925 Fill LN2 cold trap bath
1000 Start IbIs sequence on DCRC1pA, from 700 to 100 step -5 uA, HV = 0 V, front-end gain 10, driver gain 1.
1025 Start IbIs sequence on DCRC1pB, from 700 to 100 step -5 uA, HV = 0 V, front-end gain 10, driver gain 1.
1052 Start IbIs sequence on DCRC1pC, from 700 to 100 step -5 uA, HV = 0 V, front-end gain 10, driver gain 1.
1118 Start IbIs sequence on DCRC3pB, from 700 to 100 step -5 uA, HV = 0 V, front-end gain 10, driver gain 1. This one railed high, need to reset driver offset and redo sequence.
1143 Start IbIs sequence on DCRC3pC, from 700 to 100 step -5 uA, HV = 0 V, front-end gain 10, driver gain 1. Aborted because DAQ froze.
1214 sequence seems to be hung up, DAQ web pages unresponsive
1220 Kill DAQ and restart. Delete files from last sequence. Will now restart sequence.
1222 Start IbIs sequence on DCRC3pC, from 700 to 100 step -5 uA, HV = 0 V, front-end gain 10, driver gain 1. Seems to be something wrong wtih this data, not sure what, can't process the raw data, files are small
1258 Start IbIs sequence on DCRC3pB, from 700 to 100 step -5 uA, HV = 0 V, front-end gain 10, driver gain 1.
1326 Start IbIs sequence on DCRC3pC, from 700 to 100 step -5 uA, HV = 0 V, front-end gain 10, driver gain 1.
1401 Start IbIs sequence on DCRC3pD, from 700 to 100 step -5 uA, HV = 0 V, front-end gain 10, driver gain 1.
1430 Constructed a cheater cable to connect a BNC cable to the hi,lo triax connections. This lets us use the Keithley 617 to measure low voltages like the test resistor voltage in the HV board.
Cheater connector and triax Plugged in snug
1447 Start LHe transfer @ MB=30.9%
1530 Cease LHe transfer @ MB=90.0%
The IbIs raw data from above was moved to /byseries/07180530_2500
1553 Start IbIs sequence on DCRC1pA, from 450 to 200 step -2 uA, HV = 0 V, front-end gain 10, driver gain 1.
1555 Tower = 38.8 mK
1619 Start IbIs sequence on DCRC1pB, from 450 to 200 step -2 uA, HV = 0 V, front-end gain 10, driver gain 1.
1644 Start IbIs sequence on DCRC1pC, from 450 to 200 step -2 uA, HV = 0 V, front-end gain 10, driver gain 1.
1702 Fill LN2 cold trap partially. Dewar ran dry.
1750 Start IbIs sequence on DCRC3pB, from 300 to 50 step -2 uA, HV = 0 V, front-end gain 10, driver gain 1.
1859 Start IbIs sequence on DCRC3pC, from 450 to 200 step -2 uA, HV = 0 V, front-end gain 10, driver gain 1.
1929 Start IbIs sequence on DCRC3pD, from 450 to 200 step -2 uA, HV = 0 V, front-end gain 10, driver gain 1. I think the DAQ might have frozen up before the end of this sequence.
The last 6 IbIs raw data sets were moved to /byseries/07180530_2600
