Beam position excursion just prior to xB valve closure
It appears that there was a position excursion on the Hall B lock BPMs just prior to the beam trip/valve closure. One can see the lock correctors responding to the position shift in fig. 1.
Fig. 1: Hall B valves & target pressure on top plot, BPMs on middle plot, lock correctors on bottom plot.
(iocnl26rffcc1) watchdog alarm - restored fine
given the guidance for response, looks like we may contact software.
Have not attempted to reboot IOC due to guidance
I did a quick scan through the list of PV's on this IOC, nothing critical stood out to me and the cryo heaters are unaffected
As I'm typing this (Fig. 5) IOC came back online. All is well
Reminder of rapid access limitations
QuickPic - VCG2C24A HV trip reset by Ops
xB activity around their target (valves closed)
Not sure what has happened. Pressure at the target spiked. Valves closed. Hopefully xB can deduce some conclusions on whats going on...
No beam to xB, dumplett is in due to bleed through. Halo's have sky rocketed with bleed-through alone.
Downstream & Midstream Halo's tracks with pressure swings
FIG. 5
Rad monitor #30 had increased until the dumplett went in
Noted large spike in PRad target pressure coincident with xB valve closures
Downtime Incident CREATED: Hall B valves closed, target pressure unusual then dropped
FSD Masking Tool: Successful Destination masking to: HallC,HallD
QuickPic - xB vacuum valves closed
