20140130 OAA GOX Ship to MPE.
20150209 OAA MB, GOX Ship to INAF, installed to SX.
20151017 LBT GOX Update software and aligned Kontron to WFS camera #2 (see instructions here)
20150308 LBT GOX, TM, GR pumping camera
20150511 LBT TM, MB pumping camera
20150515 LBT TM, SR pumping camera
20161021 LBT TM Pressure read 30 mbar
20170501 LBT MR, MB This camera is leaking, It is now routinely pumped every day
20180210 LBT GR Pressure was 12 mbar. Pumped down to 0.5 mbar. Last reading was 0.62 mbar

Know issues

When What
20130215 Pressure sensor is miscalibrated (?). Typically stays at 0.2mbar and shows no variations at all
20130819 Pressure too high. Sensor passes from 0.2mbar to 7000mbar
20130828 Pumped. Diagnostic is now ok. Camera is apparently working ok
20131205 Horizontal Stipes effect begin. See emails
20131223 CCD cannot be powered up. A current value is too high. See emals
20131230 A bent pin in the sequencer cable is found. See emails
20150304 ErrorCamera at startup: ThingsThatIDontUnderstand0010
20170501 The camera leak progressively got worse and camera needs to be pumped more often. In May17 run (DiaryRun16) the camera was pumped every day

Pressure sensor

The pressure sensor of this camera appears to be miscalibrated. Its floor value is 0.2mbar and it appears quite unsensitive to all changes. It passed suddenly to 7 bar!. It appears not linear at all.

When Where Pressure from pressure gauge

(Voltage reading, converted in mbar)

Humidity raw value

(water cooling only, at -20C, max value when warming up)
