Prepare

  • Verify power off.  (MPOD panel or IoC panel)
  • Install detector in Marietta.
  • Connect chiller, start flow.
  • Connect data fiber.
  • Connect gas line if applicable, start flow at 5l/m.

Power

  • Set known values on mpod.
  • Pin out cable according to diagram.
  • Turn off mpod.
  • Connect power cable to detector.
  • Set operating voltages on mpod. (check here)
  • Start DAQ ("restartdaq") and configure to begin idle.

Thermally Stabilize

  • For 10k small/100: Wait for temperature < 10C and humidity < 10% (ideally under 5%)
  • For 10k2M: takes ~1hr 

Record Voltage/Current/Temperature Values

Measure Pedestals (run charge injection script)

Collect Fluorescence Data

  • Make sure centers line up (detector and target)
  • Take pedestals if you haven't already
  • Silver: ~10cm distance, 35kVp, 45uA (50 was old current, proved to be too high, saw burn-in)

Direct Illumination w/Mini-X
