    | Bias Voltage This is the bias power supply. There are 4 output channels, we are using 
channel 1 (left in this photo. Channels 2, 3, 4 are disabled (see the 
switches), and therefore the indicator lights are green (safe).
 
   Verify that the channel 1 knob is turned all the way down
   Verify that the channel 1 switch is in the center (100 V) position
   Verify that the Ortec unit power is off
   Turn the crate power ON
   Turn the Ortec unit power ON - lots of lights come on
   Push the reset button - channels 2, 3, 4 go green
   Verify that the channel selector is set to CURRENT 1
   Verify that the current reads 0

    | Wedge power This unit normally stays on, since the OUTPUT ON/OFF state is
switched from the GUI (below). When ON, it should read 2.5 V.

    | GUI The GUI can be started from the start menu:
   
 
   The Output On/Off switches the wedge power.
   Under Wedge Configuration, set the serial number (wedge ID), select 
small/large, Bias V to 70 V.
   At the bottom, select CalibrateWedge, or SourceTest
   When ready, hit Start. SourceTest takes 3 minutes (settable), and the
CalibrateWedge takes about 45 seconds.

    | After a calibration run or a source test run, you can look at the results.
You have to convert the output .dat file to a root file, with the raw2root.shscript. Files are in /c/e, and they have the wedge ID (here 097) in it, and
the date (here 20101212). Tabbing works. Bigger  →
