Testing software modified in position calculator diagram so that aperture translation allows optic slit offset in "combo" mode. Test shows optic slit aligned to about 0.22mm to optical axis as defined by position of 0.5mm manual slit. Based on this result, system constants/axis scales/aperture translation number has been changed from 38.73 to 38.95. 951217 Power failure. Bob came in and restarted everything. Grating chamber contained HC2245 / HC2257. 951219 Changed CEL tp 7.0 based on test "START". OPT16, OPT12. Changed systems constant "key dimension" Dao from 254.0 to 283.0 based on two independent measurements. (Former measurement by Elder gave 11 inches, today's measurement by Flanagan gave 28.3 cm +/- 0.3 cm.) Dog is confirmed within 1mm to be 203 mm, and crude scale for grating translation and rotation is confirmed (within about 10 percent.) Removed gratings. Changed system constants/axis scales/aperture translation from 38.95 to 38.935 based on results of OPT16, which showed that the best guess on 951215 was extremely good. Current optic offset appears to be about -1.45 mm based on OPT12. This was performed before correcting the value of Doa and the optic angle. 951220 OPT12, OPT17 In system constants/set axis scales/optic rotation, changed home position from 5.75 to 5.85. This brings the focused position of the optic from -18mm off the optical axis, to only about -2 mm off the optical axis. Rescanned the optic slit across the optic in order to establish the resultant optic translation offset. Best estimate is now about -1.13 mm. In labview, went to front panel of executive/ execute test item/Fac C&c/ chamber move. Changed "optic translation offset" from 237.2 to 238.33 and made "current value default". Also found, in "position calculator", that yesterday's change to the system constant for Dao did not update the front panel. Thus, the front panel value was corrected from 254 to 283 and selected "make current value default". *** F007M and F009M *** .......Test ID......... ....Data Collection..... ............Data Analysis......................

The optic translation offset has been changed to 236.07 in "single chamber motor mover" and "motion maker". This appears to align the optic correctly at 0.55 degrees. This should be checked by running OPT19 (which scans at 0.5 and 0.95 degrees.) HVo of PSPC is changed from 1767 V to 1763 V.

OPT19 confirmed that the optic translation offset 236.07 (mentioned under 951228) aligns the optic correctly at 0.5 and 0.95 degrees. Ran SSDSCAN and aligned SSD horizontally. The correct x-offset (for the SSD) in the system constants (under "detector setup") is -0.86mm (changed from prior value of -0.9mm). Started fine-tuning the optic rotation by changing the systems constants/set axis scales/optic rotation, "position home at 5.8555 units from - limit". The correct number appears to be between 5.85 and 5.86. 960103 OPTIC TESTS. The optic rotation cannot be fine-tuned because the optic does not home repeatably. Errors show up as several mm displacement at the PSPC, and the limit switch position is detected with 0.1 degrees "slop". The errors do NOT appear to be due to hysteresis in the drive mechanism, or ratcheting of the optic. The hysteresis effects appear to exist, but are much smaller. In OPT20, the grating stage was scanned along horizontal translation in slit collimation mode and optic mode (at 0.5 and 0.95 degrees) to check the displacement alignment. 960104 - 960105 OPTIC TESTS. A tilt test was performed on one grating in two configurations: in slit collimation, and in optic at an angle. By overlapping the results, we can determine if the optic mode correctly orients the grating to be normal to the beam. A scan of the grating plate across the beam at the position of the open slot adjacent to the refHEG grating is intended to check the horizontal translation of the grating stage, and its correct application in optic mode. 960105 [904]MEG9 1-190 MF1514 / MA1035 OK, except no SSD data 'F007M Analysis complete 960109 [] SSD data added to 960105 'F007M 960110 Changed PSPC HVo from 1763 V to 1759 V.

These changes should accomodate the apparent detector offsets of -1.32 mm and -.41 mm determined by X-ray tests YGSCAN and YG1SCAN. The result should be checked by rerunning one of these tests. In Motion Maker, the optic translation offset had been correctly changed to 236.07 in one loop but not in the other. Both loops were corrected. (Motion Maker does not affect the Navigator or MEG/HEG tests in any way.) In Position Calculator, the reference x-position for all direct beams (i.e., grating > 3) was changed from 50 to 50.8 in conformity to the mechanical drawing, confirmed by eatlier X-rays tests OPT20 and XGSCAN. This change does not affect the HEG and MEG test suites because the precise center of the open aperture is immaterial to the result. 960207 Ran YREF and FOCUS. Ran YGSCAN to confirm yesterdays detector y-offsets. Found that yesterday's y-offset were wrong, because they were, in effect, offsets at the grating stage and need to be converted to an equivalent distance at the detector plane. Consequently, changed the system constants/detector setup/ y-offsets BACK to PSPC 0.00 and SSD 101.82, their usual values when running test suites.
