The G0 Target Loop

Target Installation

In the Hall

Gas Panel

Tgt Electronics in Hall C

Target Specifications
T=19 ± 0.01 K (TF=13.8K, TB=22.2K)
P~25 ± 1 psia (10 psig, or 1.7 atm.)
Beam power ~ 275 W @ 40 µA
Reserve power ~ 50 W
Max. power < 500 W
Fan n=30 Hz
2x2 mm2 raster

Beam Currents
Beam tuning: drop cell out of beam, £ 40 mA
Moeller runs: drop cell out of beam, £ 2 mA
LH2 runs: raster on, £ 40 mA
MT runs (cold He gas): raster on, £ 20 mA
C runs: raster on, £ 12 mA cold (5 mA warm)
Halo runs: raster on, £ 20 mA (careful!)

COO Duties
Be present whenever H2 is condensed
Insure tgt is safe. Monitor. Report problems to tgt expert
Insure raster is on
Initiate any changes required (motion)
Coordinate motion through MCC
Log changes & alarms in g0log

Essential Responsibilities
At start of your shift:
Verify power settings, configuration, program
Verify alarm handler & logger are functional
Make alh visible in all workspaces
Complete the checklist
Log alarms, configuration changes
Service alarms from lowest level in tree
Contact MCC before & after tgt motion
Know the essential “How-tos”

Your Job (Do’s)
Keep tgt safe & within specs (6.5l LH2!!!)
Monitor! Watch! Listen! Think!
Service & log alarms
Change targets (thru MCC)
Respond to ESR changes with JT
Keep ~50 W reserve heater power for PID
Log configuration changes, etc.

Don’ts
Cooldown
Warmup
Manipulate gas panel
Change alarm setpoints (unless asked to do so by a tgt expert)
Leave tgt console unattended
Fail to acknowledge alarms
Let system go sub-atmospheric or below 14K
Move tgt while beam is on

Experts

Target Operator’s Station

Getting Started
 log into gzerol2.acc as g0targ
PW is ____________
cd $G0TGT/bin
Type “medm”, then click “execute” mode
This will launch main GUI, alh, strip charts,
Insure alh visible everywhere, alh & logger running. Heartbeat OK?
Crack secondary GUIs from main GUI

Target Control GUIs

Rebooting the Target IOC
Why? Heartbeat lost, stripcharts flat, etc.
Call MCC for beam off
Set manual HPH I&V for appropriate power
Set HPH controller switches to “manual”
Monitor temps via TV, fine-tune HPH I/V
Main GUI, click: - For Experts – IOC – IOC Save/Restore/Reboot – Reboot. Wait 2min. until heartbeat, green lights, etc.  back
IOC Save/Restore -  !  – Log a msg - Normal Restore

Rebooting the Target IOC, ctd.
Not OK? Then hardware reboot (target IOC) thru the reboot GUI over at the CODA terminal
Put HPH back on PID:
Main GUI – Heater Control – check set val is ok – PID Enable – Heater Mode PID
PID OK? Then flip manual HPH switches back to “Computer”. Check that PID is “pidding”.
Call MCC for beam back. Log event in g0log.

Hall C Electronics Room

Changing Targets
Call MCC: beam off, mask tgt motion FSD, inform them which tgt you’re going to
From main GUI, click:
Target Position, then choose Target Motion
Enable the chosen target
Enable the sequencer
Click on chosen target
Disable sequencer when it’s there
Fine tune position to ±10 units if necessary (100 units ~ 1mm)
Call MCC: beam & FSD on, new Ib, new tgt
Log configuration change

Alarm Handler
Alarm Handler GUI must be visible in each workspace
If not running, from main GUI click:
Alarm
From Start Alarm Handler click   !
Alarm Colors:
Red: major, ouside wide limits
Yellow: minor, outside narrow limits
White: readout error
Alarm Color States:
Steady: alarm condition was transient
Flashing: alarm condition is active

Servicing Alarms
Click on alh bar to open alarm tree GUI
There click on raised button corresponding to the branch that is alarming on screen left
On screen right, click on the P next to the alarming sub-branch. This shows current value and all limits.
If OK, click the colored button left of sub-branch to clear the alarm
If not OK, why? Call an expert?
Log the event

Alarm Handler GUI

Check Logger
From main GUI:
Click the  !   Button next to Check Archiver
OR, type ps –e | grep ArchiveEngine on a control computer xterm
OK? Then 3 instances will be listed
Not OK? You get nothing back.
Then, type cd /Archives
Then, type ./start_archiver

Emergency Procedures
Why? ESR crash, power failure, LOV, etc.
Ask for beam off if not already off
Call an expert. May advise controlled access.
If T climbing, put manual HPH control to 0
Fan speed to 10 Hz
Keep close eye on loop pressure, must not go sub-atmospheric. PV12 should stay open except in a LOV
Tgt expert may ask you to do a warmup over the phone (together, & only thru MCC)

Dummy Targets

Adjusting the Heat Load
Pbeam~270 W at 40 µA, Preserve~50-100 W
With beam on, need ~50-100 W on HPH
With beam off should have ~350 W on HPH
(if off a long time, can reduce)
HPH power adjusterd automatically
(in PID looking at Tloop
To adjust, use JT:
Open JT to increase HPH power
Close JT to lower HPH power
