Shift Monitoring¶

Shifters should keep a careful eye on:

• Water chiller temperature outside the control room (bottom of the red LEDs). If this reaches 25C, immediately power down the magnets and inform the MOM.
• Magnet water temperatures.
  • Log any abnormal changes in the eLog
  • If yellow temperature alarm sounds, immediately power down the magnets and inform the MOM.
• Magnet water flows.
  • Log any abnormal changes in the eLog
  • If yellow alarm sounds, immediately power down the magnets and inform the MOM.
• EMR stopping the DAQ arming
  • Power cycle the VME crate by following the instructions here

Shift plan:¶

• 8:45pm
  • Shifters + BLOC arrive
  • Hall and beam line to be closed and prepared for beam
• 10pm
  • Start pion reference beam with:
    • No diffuser, 1000 spills
    • Diffuser combo 1, 1000 spills
    • Diffuser combo 2, 1000 spills...
    • Repeat for all diffuser combinations (they increase in 0.2X0 increments)
    • When all combinations complete, open the diffuser and run the pion reference beam for the remainder of the shift.

• Check that POMPOMs read magnet polarity correctly for input to CDB
• Photograph/Screenshot Run Summary at end of run for comparison to CDB (see screenshot attached to https://micewww.pp.rl.ac.uk/elog/MICE+Log/3223)
• Write more verbose eLogs, describe the problem, its symptoms and solution (if known).

Data Requested¶

• Pion reference beam (settings are in Run Control)
• 1000 spills of each diffuser setting
• When done, open diffuser completely and run pion reference beam for the remainder of the shift

Beamline Configuration¶

• We expect to run with 2V beamloss and the beam bump active.
• DS is off
• Beam settings via Run Control
