Viewer application (with API) for 6GeV logbooks
A viewer application has been created to make it easier to access historic entries from the 6GeV era preserved in the old logbooks database. It contains log entries recorded between 2001 and 2013. When the current logbook was initially stood up in 2013, the most recent 5 years of data was imported, so data from 2008 - 2013 overlaps and is available from the current logbook application as well as this historic data viewer.

Summary of today's Gun HV conditioning under vacuum
Today we did following activities:
- HV vacuum conditioning confirmation
- Removed the HV conditioning resistor tank and connected R30-6 gun sdirectly to the HVPS
- After conditioning resistor tank removal, demonostrated field emission free HV soaking at 210 kV
- Repeated ramp up-soak-ramp down cycle by taking gun to 200 kV with different ramp rates of 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 kV/min and demonstrated field emission free operation.
Plan for tomorrow:
- Remove the conditioning puck from the gun and insert a GaAs puck in the Gun
- Soak the gun at 200 kV for ~ a shift.
Gun Ramp Rate Exercise Complete
We ramped the voltage from 0 to 200 kV and back several times at increasing ramp rates to ensure the system can handle the nominal settings. There are occasional vacuum blips when the supply hits zero, but everything is otherwise behaving well. That's all for tonight.
Gun HV Turned Off > 1kV
ACG Report
Single mode fibers run and patched in for the South Linac segment (iocch2 and iocch2a). Moved the last segment (SL, iocch2 and iocch2a) from old router to new router. We are completely migrated to the new chl router. Going to start removing the old router from the control room rack. Latosky Cumbia

Gun soaked for 2 hrs at 200 and 210 kV for ~2 hours, ramping down for different ramp up rate excercise
Gun soaked for 2 hrs at 200 and 210 kV. Ramping down for different ramp up rate excercise.
Throughout the soak all the DecRAD counts were in background noise level. No vacuum activity observed. HVPS current was stable and in background level. We will excercise different ramp up rate up to 50 kV/min next. Tomorrow, we would like to swap the conditioning puck with a GaAs puck and soak the gun at 200 kV for ~ a shift.

Found no evidence of any bad cable connections or contamination. The leakage current observed before remains unexplained (so far).
