Hi,

The magnet suffered a fast-discharge at 02:31 this morning due to power dip
along with the RHIC beam etc. The two PC's in the 1008B mezzanine were both
hung and they had to be rebooted. I came in also to start the quench
detection programs --- maybe the first time that I did this alone. It's
ramped back to the top current/field before 9 am.

PS:

I called Ralph and CAS to help (for different reasons) ... but I was able to
fix the problem just before they entered the door of 1008B mezzanine 😅
Thanks for their help 😊
