SL GLDER warnings are back

It looks like they've been slowly repopulating the South Linac since the 1497 amp was replaced. I did notice the EMI shielding around the rack is arranged differently from before, maybe it just needs to be put back?

Follow-up Re: 2L18 HV Restored???

1 day 12 hours ago
Log Number: 4520257Logbook(s): Body: 

The Aux Power is what powers the filaments. When filaments are on and counted up, you get a hv ready and can toggle the HV on. When it doesn't go to HV, we make sure filaments are counted up and at correct voltages. After pushing master reset like the red button on the CPS, we can go ahead and slow start the HV. If it drops out for unknown reasons, do not take it to IDLE, call RF on-call to see if we can see anything that is causing a drop.

2L18 dropping HV

1 day 12 hours ago
Log Number: 4520252Logbook(s): Entry Makers: kernsBody: 

Don't no why it dropped HV but operator said they dropped it down idle and back and it still wouldn't go into HV. Should not take a zone to Idle when it drops HV due to the fact that filaments will need to be checked that they have counted up and back to what they were running. If you do this too fast without checking filaments are back up, it will not go to HV because the filaments aren't ready and you won't have a ready for HV enable. After filaments dropped for whatever reason unknown, HV drops out and that's all the cavity Quenches you see.

2L18 HV Restored???

1 day 13 hours ago
Log Number: 4520248Logbook(s): Entry Makers: bschaumlBody: 

I was able to bring the zone back to idle shortly after returning from the SL service building. The crew chief had been unable to do this while I was on the phone with him. All I did locally was hit the front panel reset button and cycle the enable/disable key switch a couple times. There was a similar "aux" error to that described in the linked entry. I suppose if Hall B decides not to take beam for a while we could unbypass cavities 2-8, leaving 1 off because it was already bypassed.

cavity 1 started experiencing arc faults when trying to recover RF, so Ben did an OLT on it

2L10-7 Tuner and CRFP dropping out

1 day 13 hours ago
Log Number: 4520243Logbook(s): Entry Makers: kernsBody: 

This cavity developed slow/sluggish tuning last month and had over temp on the stepper motor when it was constantly trying to tune and overheating. It will tune slowly if walked up with OLT but with tuner left in manual, any beam loading that changes cavity tuning will drop it out. If you constantly try to bring it up and it has 6kw CRFP being sent to the cavity, it will continue to trip until re-tuned and nominal CRFP. Tuner needs to be checked for operation and I think SRF has installed a high torque stepper on this cavity tuner.
