Mimir Cooling Start

• • Turned on BA Gauge
  • Pegged the detector temperature to the current temperature, make sure to turn the heater on.
  • Set the temperature set point for the second stage to 10.0K
  • Changed the temper log file data to reflect the current date i.e. 20140902.tc.log in this case.
  • Changed plottempa.pro to look at new temper file.
  • Rebuilt the IDL virtual machine program to push the web pages.
  • Moved the Camera, Slit, and Decker to home
  • Started the runstage program to move the mechanisms while cooling.

  • Fix the crontab so the BA gauge would automatically turn on and off.
  • 16:09, started the detector to ramp at 0.1 K/m to 33.5K
  • 16:36, Valved off the vacuum pumps
