Nov 8 2000 07:18:36:950AM		Jim Irby	Engineering setup and run plan for Wednesday 08 Nov 2000. Continuation of MP #236 H-mode pedestal asymmetry with reversed field Session leader: Granetz/Pedersen Physics operator: Irby ECDC in D2 overnight, ending 2 hours before the run. Run starts at 09:00 and ends at 17:00. Power systems as on 1001107021. Gas setup fill B-top with 6 psi of D2 Hybrid enabled fill B-side lower with 1 psi of Ar Hybrid DISABLED fill B-side upper with 35 psi of D2 Hybrid DISABLED, for ECDC fill C-side with 30 psi of D2 Hybrid enabled leave J-bot as is Hybrid DISABLED The following gate valves should be enabled: ECE, VUV, Beast -------------------- Run Plan: Start with 0.8 MA, lower null plasma. We probably need at least 2.5 MW of ICRF for >200 ms. Ideally we'd like 3+ MW for 0.5 s, but we'll take what we can get. Assuming we do indeed get H-modes with reversed field, we would then try it at 1.0 MA, and then at 1.2 MA. Argon puffing would also be required for JR to get up/down argon profiles. Bt = 5.22 T NL04 = 7-8e19 /cm^2
Nov 8 2000 07:20:15:170AM		Jim Irby	Have problem with DAQA. Josh is investigating.
Nov 8 2000 07:34:41:967AM		Jim Irby	Josh finds problem with defrag program on DAQA. Kills process, now looks okay.
Nov 8 2000 07:37:28:983AM		Jim Irby	Did coldstart; all okay rtnode -- data loaded, A matrix responds rtnode -- data loaded, M matrix responds rtnode -- data loaded, PID matrix responds RT_NODE Done
Nov 8 2000 07:54:10:967AM		Jim Irby	NL04 request set to 8.e-19/cm^2
Nov 8 2000 09:09:11:530AM		Jim Irby	Tried to take first shot: IGOR stuck!
