Entry  Tue Mar 7 09:18:01 2023, OST, Problems, , Beam, run number 44 crashed and local filter turned red-but data saved  run_control_7mar2023_0910.png

9:08 local filter turned red. Both .caendat and   LF .adf files still incrementing. Stopped run 44, started run 45, looks OK.

 

 

Entry  Tue Mar 7 09:41:44 2023, OST, Problems, , Software, number_Ge_15 dedector not taking data 

after run 45 I reset all spectrums and number_Ge_15 dedector not taking data.

i check the fans_monitor_scaler (EAGLE_array_monitor) monitor and number 15 Ge, number ACS 5 never change the color just staying white there is a problem.

14:30 pm to 15:00 run 45 crashed and stopped

Entry  Tue Mar 7 20:42:03 2023, IP, Problems, , Beam, beam unstable 

There was a problem with the beam from 20:19 to 20:30.

Now it is fine.

Entry  Wed Mar 8 07:30:15 2023, KS, KSz, Problems, , Beam, beam unstable 

The beam was unstable from 7:18 to 7:25.

Entry  Wed Mar 8 07:57:05 2023, IK, Problems, , Beam, beam unstable Screenshot_2023-03-08_08-17-41.png

The beam was unstable from 7:55. Stabilized around 8:03.

Counting rates are higher, EAGLE det4 went to ~2.5kHZ from ~2kHz (attached).

According to the operator, a bit of a tuning was done, current is 1nA.

 

run control = 48

run data =  /onlineNEDA_00/xData/hil099/run_0048_08-03-2023_01h08m57s/needleRU_i48_0048_0041.caendat

Entry  Wed Mar 8 11:42:14 2023, IK, Problems, , General, Run 49 Screenshot_2023-03-08_11-38-47.pngScreenshot_2023-03-08_11-38-19.pngScreenshot_2023-03-08_11-37-37.png

Counting rates continued to increase (det4 > 3kHz). Beam current looked fine on the beam dump, but beam is fluctuating, and can reach 2nA on the collimator.  Asked for improved focusing.

Attached screenshots and Ge spectra from before changing anything.

 

run control = 49

run data = /onlineNEDA_00/xData/hil099/run_0049_08-03-2023_09h31m08s/needleRU_i49_0049_0020.caendat

LF =   6.15MB/s

plunger:

plunger run = 603

actual distance =  382.7 um

supposed distance = 382.7 um

micrometer =   385.9 um

position =  150.0 um

voltage =  2.146 V

 

Beam dump 0.7 nA

Collimator ~1.5-2nA when the generator retunes itself (prob the beam gets defocused at those moments)

 

 

 

 

 

Entry  Wed Mar 8 15:57:53 2023, IK, AM, Problems, , General, Beam issue 

no beam in 15:52 - 16:21 due to power supply problem

Entry  Fri Mar 10 01:28:48 2023, AM, Problems, , Other, Plunger distance 

longer break during chane of plunger distance due to technical problem, you can not move plunger to larger distances, so now we are choosing smaller distance in the morning we ask the specialists
 

Entry  Fri Mar 10 08:02:39 2023, AM, Problems, , Beam, bigger data rate  

rate of ch4 above 2kHz, too big beam intesivity, highier data rate from: 07:51
 

Entry  Fri Mar 10 20:54:20 2023, IP, Problems, , Beam, lost the beam 

the beam was lost at 20:46. The operator is working to solve the problem.

Entry  Fri Mar 10 21:26:55 2023, IP, Problems, , Beam, problem with focus the beam 

the beam is not the best focused. The operator works on this problem.

Entry  Fri Mar 10 23:27:51 2023, IP, Problems, , Software, run 53 - stopped 

the daq crashed at 22:43 -- problem with Local Filter

the run 53 - stopped

Entry  Sat Mar 11 11:39:55 2023, EG, Problems, , , Buffers clearing 

at 11:34:50 sek on 11 march a spike in counting rate of some Ge detectors is observed. Buffers not cleared properly?


 

Entry  Sun Mar 12 03:05:45 2023, GJ, AF, Problems, , Network, no data flux visible in grafena, LF prints "write: Broken pipe" 
As in the title, see below.
The data are still being constantly written on the disks with usual rate (also visible on grafena).
Greware is also seeing data.

beeper output:
no new data about the growth for 37 s !!!
Noticed at Sun Mar 12 02:50:42 2023
and weirdo scream followed.

Entry  Sun Mar 12 13:20:00 2023, EG, Problems, , , No Data 

For a split second a red "NO DATA" notification appeared in the top right corner of Counting rates dashboard.

It looks like it did not change anything in data collection.


 

Entry  Thu Mar 2 23:04:01 2023, GJ, Problem Fixed, , Hardware, Connection of the plunger cables, grounding, beam read-out for the operators Slp823030222550.pdf
Notes of the measurements with different conditions are attached.

Conclusion:
What is read out by the operators on the blue cable should be multiplied by 7 to get a real value in enA.
Entry  Fri Mar 3 17:52:41 2023, IK, Problem Fixed, , Hardware, Beamdump readout issue - solved 

Current readout issues from beamdump. Beam stopped from 17:46-17:52, run 36 ongoing.

MP & GJ checking the grounding and connection the beamdump readout. No visible issue found in the exp hall, but copper grounding wire was tightened, which seemingly resolved the issue (stability of beamdump readout).
