The EtherCAT loop for the vacuum PLC is interrupted at crate 1.6 (XTD2).

Both SASE1 XGMs (in XTD2 and XTD9) are now again in the Vacuum Control Loop, their vacuum being controlled by Beckhoff/karabo. This works fine.
Therefore: DO NOT FOOL AROUND WITH THE VACUUM LOOP !
Since we all cannot enter the tunnel XTD2 in the next two days, it's agreed that the Vacuum Loop is NOT going to be touched at all, since |

Both XGMs were and are on manual control (but the remote cables into the turbo pump controllers remained plugged in as usual) = both XGMs are "out

In XTD2, I saw around 13h that both turbos were off (0 Hz) and the pressure was at 10E-4 mbar !

XGM resistor issue - analysis progress, posted by Jan Grünert on 01 Feb 2017, 17:42

This is the current (w5) progress at DESY concerning the analysis of the serious XGM resistor issue (summary; a detailed report by DESY is available):
The new “pulser test” was verified at an operational XGMD at FLASH. The test method is (unfortuately) OK. This means that
the test results with issues from last week on all our XGMs are REAL.
25% of all resistors in XBPMs affected, 0% of resistors in HAMPs affected, |

Mandate for the Extension of the Vacuum Controls Commissioning Task Force, posted by Tobias Haas on 11 Nov 2016, 15:43
|
The Vacuum Controls Commissioning Task Force initially helped to get the vacuum components extending from the gate valve at 2678 m to the gate valve
at 2730 m in XTD2. This comprised the valves and pumps and the associated vacuum interlock logic. The necessary components were all installed and locally
tested. As the next step the PLC firmware for the control of these devices was generated including the interlock logic. Finally the system was connected |

I reproduced the behaviour of the PLC on beckhoffSim. This reproduces the same behaviour seen in the tunnel devices (devices hang).
Implemented the fix and verified the correct behaviour with beckhoffSim.
Fixes will be verified next Monday with the tunnel system. |
