keyword=Beam: CHL trip - no beam - what to do next.

At 13:53, the CHL tripped. MCC says there will be no beam for 1-3 hrs (optimistically).

Meanwhile, QTOR remains on at 5000 A but the remote control has crashed again.

We are thinking about how to get a measure of beam in Hall C. MCC has no measure of this. Hall C BCM needs recalibration and reads a small negative zero offset. Ops have a prescription from Joe Grames for setting up the source to give us approx 200 pA CW. We don't know the extent of leakage from other halls.

We plan to try and calibrate the lumi monitors when the beam comes back.

For putting in the Qweak optics targets, MCC will have to recalibrate the ion chamber trip levels. This probably takes about 0.5 hr.
