keyword=Beam: BCM calibration run
I forgot to tell MCC to start the BCM calibration with beam off for two
minutes, so the first 3uA is not bounded by beam off on both sides. So I
had MCC do an extra 3uA period at the end of the calibration run.
In the plot below the green is the Unser, with the scale on the right
hand axis. Since the Unser preamp gain has been divided by 10, the unser
shows a 1.2uA shift for 12 uA change in current. The tracking of ibcm1
and the unser on this plots shows that the nominal gain 5 calibration in
EPICS is reasonable.
