S3 HV off (ch 6 of SCIFI HV GUI, should be off for production)? Check online plots (y/n)? -RHRS

CODA

Latest run type (Test, Physics,..) Is the auto replay script running (ask the analysis expert)? Is the APEX run list (in a white binder) completed? Please attach the left/right HV and Scalers Screenshots to the shift report Time of beginning of latest run (RHRS) Latest run number Dead time (%)

Beamtime accounting

• Beamtime accounting table submitted?

In counting house

• Is the volume up on hacweb7? (both hardware and software)
• VESDA System OK? (VESDA is the smoke/fire detection and alarm system. Check the Hall A VESDA Console on the wall beside the door to the compter room
• Empty drip tray and place mug under spout on coffee maker
  • Press the buttons on either side of the tray and pull toward you
  • Place a mug under the spout while emptying the tray (and the previous mug) in the bathroom sink
  • Replace the tray by sliding back into the machine
  • Place a mug under the spout to help keep the tray from overflowing
