The HVAC high temperature alarm was going off when we arrived this morning. Decreased the temperature set point on the HVAC to 66°F at 08:22. Temperature continued to increase. Decreased the temperature set point to 65°F at 09:28. Learned from ISU maintenance that there was an issue with frozen pipes and a subsequent malfunction in the building's heating and cooling system that was causing our HVAC system to compete with the building system to maintain temperatures. It is also possible that the AC unit outside was frozen. (Local temperatures were approximately -10°F this morning.) Increased temperature set point to 67°F at 11:33 and opened the garage door in the upper area outside the cleanroom to prevent HVAC system from overwork and decrease temperatures. Temperatures decreased and came within specifications for the remainder of the work day. Stringing work was halted from 07:30 to 11:30.

Sector 1 - DAQ Scintillator timing information now working (Ch. 96, 99, 104, 105, 106, 107)

Quad coincidence in all AND mode close to working, need to get a delay box for one channel so that the cable delay from the other three is compensated for on the one channel that is "faster" by 40 ns.

Drift chamber isn't putting out a normal signal to the pre-amp that's normal for gammas. Unknown what is causing this problem at the moment, may be an issue with our current triggering setup on the scope.

Sector 5 - Restringing and testing wires in SL1 that were out of spec. Rotated and aligned chamber for stringing repairs in SL2.

Cleanroom temperatures drifted out of spec this morning. Opened the garage door in the upper area to bring in colder air. Temperatures came back within specifications for the remainder of the day.

Sector 1 - Found that the HV supply board was not providing voltage to the Field wires. Began troubleshooting this issue.

Sector 5 - Restringing and testing wires in SL2 that were out of spec. Completed weekly Tension Trend test.

01/07/13

Finished replacing wires that were out of spec on Sector 5

Removed stringing machine and arm.

Rotated to potting position

Goal: Potting Sector 5, begin cleaning and inspecting next chamber for stringing.
