the pulse energy in XTD10 is lowered by ~30% when SASE1 changes photon energy, compare att. 1 and 2.
In addition, the intra-train pulse energy stability gets much lower. Potentially, there is an impact on the pointing as well, which is critical
for the pump-probe experiment. |

changing SA3 mono from grating to blank while having the und to mono synchronization running apparently caused the und photon energy to change to 680eV.
the synchronization MDL went into pink-disable when changing mirror settings, so this change in photon energy should not have occurred.
After going back to 940eV, the SASE level did not come back. BKR tried to tackle this for some while until they asked for intervention of the |

SA3 GATT has trouble in setting the pressure at ~0.5mbar. setting any value between 0.5 and 0.6 will have it settle around 0.48.
It turns out the GATT cannot tune the pressure between 0.48 and 0.62mbar. tuning pressure continuously to keep transmission constant gets us
in the need of that range eventually. the problem is that at 0.48mbar the valve V30740S is at 100%. the minimum opening of the next valve V307030S gets |

around 6:15, the lights as the one shown in the attachment turned on by themselves in the control hutch. after some minutes, they switched off.
from the exp hutch camera, we realized that this happened in there as well, which impacted negatively on the running measurement. The pnCCD is
sensitive to ambient light and we have to keep the hutch dark while measuring. |

problems with machine operation
very low yield at 1.8keV, took ~2hrs tuning time to get 600uJ (linear taper)
SA3 cells opened without us knowing when hv was changed |
