We ran through the shot cycle today and
checked the following:

. gas puff from b-top (startup), and c-side operating

. Most of the ionization and MKS gauges are working.
G-Side ratio still needs work.

. sparker is working

. the new feature that allows us to close the Torvac
gatevalves at PULSE and open two minutes later is
working. We puffed the torus up to 8 or 9 mTorr
and Brian checked that the final pressure was consistent
with our measurements of fueling rates.


Had a problem with server 2. It was fixed by checking over
the wiring and not actually fixing anything. Will probably
see this problem again.

. gas puff system
. TF tap camac electronics using 4kA PEI pulse
. OH coax electronics
. New TF scanner
. pressure gauges
. DNB timing/cycle
. Between shot ecdc

G-Side MKS is working.

Sparker turn on for next shot

Jun 5 2002 04:52:57:237PM1020605006Jim Irbymade some changes trying to get c-side
running --- load/clean

enabled Torvac gatevalve closure on PULSE:
It worked --- pressure to 9 mTorr --- gatevalves opened
after two minutes

Looks like C-Side gas puff is working

Had CAMAC problems....
