Common chores | ||
============= | ||
|
||
Change energy and prepare for fluorescence measurements | ||
------------------------------------------------------- | ||
|
||
In this example, we are using Fe as the example. That is, we assume | ||
your are moving the beamline to the state in which it is ready to | ||
measure at the Fe K edge. For any other edge, simply change ``Fe`` to | ||
the appropriate element in the following example. | ||
|
||
When you change samples, don’t forget to put the detector in a safe | ||
state before swapping out the sample wheel. Move the detector all the | ||
way back – ``RE(mv(xafs_det, 205))`` – then put the cap back on the | ||
detector. Once you have secured the new sample wheel, remove the cap | ||
before searching the hutch. | ||
|
||
Once the hutch is secured and you are back at the computer: | ||
|
||
#. Change edge with the ``RE(change_edge(‘Fe’))`` command. Wait for it | ||
to finish and return to the command line. (See :numref:`{name}, | ||
Section {number} <pds>` for details.) | ||
|
||
#. Move the detector to middle position, say, 100: ``RE(mv(xafs_det, | ||
100))`` The range of positions for that motor is 205 (farthest back) | ||
to about 20 (very close to sample). You can check the lower limit | ||
with ``xafs_det.limits``. | ||
|
||
#. Measure an XRF spectra: ``%xrf``. Remember that you want the OCR | ||
(total count rate) to be 200,000 or less on each of the four | ||
channels. | ||
|
||
#. Adjust the detector position ``RE(mv(xafs_det, <value>))``. | ||
Remeasure ``%xrf``. Iterate on the detector position until you get | ||
a sensible signal on the detector. | ||
|
||
#. Record the detector position (``xafs_det.position`` or the number | ||
next to ``det:`` in the display at the top of the top screen) for | ||
the current sample in the spreadsheet. | ||
|
||
#. Move to a new sample position. To change slots on the *ex situ* | ||
sample wheel: ``RE(slot(##))``, where the number (``##``) is | ||
between 1 and 24. To change between inner and outer rings of | ||
samples: ``RE(xafs_wheel.inner())`` and ``RE(xafs_wheel.outer())``. | ||
For other sample holders, move the appropriate sample stages. | ||
|
||
#. To import the spreadsheet into bsui (the data acquisition program): | ||
``xlsx()`` You will be presented with a list of .xlsx file choices, | ||
pick the correct one by number and hit :key:`Enter`. You will then be | ||
presented with a list of tabs in the spreadsheet file, pick the | ||
correct tab by number and hit :key:`Enter`. (See :numref:`{name}, | ||
Section {number} <automation>` for details.) | ||
|
||
#. The output of the ``xlsx()`` command will display the command for | ||
reviewing the file (the one with ``??``) and the command for | ||
running the measurement sequence (the one with ``RE( | ||
... )``). Check to make sure it looks like ``bsui`` correctly | ||
imported the information from the spreadsheet (you did remember to | ||
save the spreadsheet, yes...?), then start the measurements. | ||
|
||
Align the *ex situ* sample wheel | ||
-------------------------------- | ||
|
||
The attractive feature of the *ex situ* sample wheel is that it makes | ||
it easy to move from sample to sample. Once the wheel is properly | ||
aligned in the beam, the command ``RE(slot(#))``, | ||
``RE(xafs_wheel.inner())``, and ``RE(xafs_wheel.inner())`` are all | ||
that's needed to move from sample to sample. | ||
|
||
For this to work, the wheel has to be properly aligned in the frist | ||
place. | ||
|
||
Once the rotation stage is in place and a wheel is mounted on the | ||
stage, place a phosphor screen in front of any slot *on the outer | ||
ring*. It is essential that the initial alignment be done of the | ||
outer ring. | ||
|
||
#. Rotate the wheel such that the phosphor screen is in the beam path | ||
using ``RE(slot(#))``, where # is between 1 and 24. | ||
|
||
#. Make sure that at least one camera is looking at the phosphor screen. | ||
|
||
#. Secure the hutch and open the shutter. | ||
|
||
#. Move the sample stage in X and Y until you can see the spot of the | ||
beam on the phosphor screen when looking through one of the | ||
cameras. Use ``RE(mvr(xafs_x, <amount>))`` and ``RE(mvr(xafs_y, | ||
<amount>))`` to move the stage in X and Y. ``<amount>`` is a | ||
*number* |nd| some sensible distance in millimeters, something like | ||
5 is often a good choice. | ||
|
||
#. Using ``RE(mvr(xafs_x, <amount>))`` and ``RE(mvr(xafs_y, | ||
<amount>))``, move the stage such that the beam is approximately in | ||
position to go through a slot on the outer ring. | ||
|
||
#. Rotate the stage to an empty slot using ``RE(slot(#))``. | ||
|
||
#. Run the alignment procedure ``RE(find_slot())``. This will perform | ||
linescans in X and Y to find the position such that the beam is | ||
passing through the middle of the slot. The resulting plot should | ||
look like something like this: | ||
|
||
.. _fig-find_slot_chore: | ||

|
||
An example of the final plot for an alignment of the *ex situ* | ||
sample wheel. The green X marks shows the aligned positions in | ||
``xafs_x`` and ``xafs_y``. | ||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
This procedure sets a parameter specifying the ``xafs_x`` position of | ||
the outer ring. The inner ring is known to be 26 mm away. Thus, the | ||
positions of both rings are set. This is why it is important to run | ||
``RE(find_slot())`` on an outer ring slot. | ||
|
||
Restart the Linkam stage | ||
------------------------ | ||
|
||
When it comes time to change samples in the Linkam stage, it is | ||
usually much easier to dismount the stage so that it can be loaded | ||
while flat. | ||
|
||
Dismount | ||
~~~~~~~~ | ||
|
||
#. Turn off the Linkam controller, the black box sitting on the half | ||
rack underneath the XAS table. Reach around behind the unit and | ||
press the power button. If using the LN2 siphon, you do not need | ||
to power down the siphon box. | ||
|
||
#. Remove the control cable from the stage. This is the black cable | ||
with the barrel connector seen in :numref:`Figure %s | ||
<fig-linkamstageINST>`. If using the LN2 siphon, also remove the | ||
two LN2 hoses, the thick gray and thinner white hoses in that | ||
photo. | ||
|
||
.. _fig-linkam_chore: | ||
.. figure:: _images/linkam.jpg | ||
:target: _images/linkam.jpg | ||
:width: 50% | ||
:align: center | ||
|
||
#. Unbolt the metal bracket supporting the Linkam stage from the | ||
sample stage. | ||
|
||
Remount | ||
~~~~~~~ | ||
|
||
#. Affix the metal bracket to the same position on the sample stage. | ||
|
||
#. Reattach the control cable and the LN2 hoses (if using the LN2 | ||
siphon). | ||
|
||
#. If using the LN2 siphon, you may need to blow dry nitrogen gas | ||
through the various parts of the system to avoid obstruction of LN2 | ||
flow by water ice. 30 seconds of flowing dry nitrogen should be | ||
enough to clean out all the lines. | ||
|
||
#. Power up the main Llinkam controller by pressing the power button | ||
on the backside of the black box. | ||
|
||
#. At any computer with CSS, reboot the Linkam control software, by | ||
following these steps: | ||
|
||
#. Click the "Info" button on the Linkam screen: | ||
|
||
.. _fig-linkam_main: | ||
.. figure:: _images/Linkam_main.png | ||
:target: _images/Linkam_main.png | ||
:width: 50% | ||
:align: center | ||
|
||
#. Click the "Reboot" button in the middle of the "IOC Diagnostics" | ||
screen | ||
|
||
.. _fig-linkam_info: | ||
.. figure:: _images/Linkam_info.png | ||
:target: _images/Linkam_info.png | ||
:width: 50% | ||
:align: center | ||
|
||
#. Click the "Reboot now!" button on the "IOC Reboot Confirmation" | ||
page. | ||
|
||
.. _fig-linkam_reboot: | ||
.. figure:: _images/Linkam_reboot.png | ||
:target: _images/Linkam_reboot.png | ||
:width: 50% | ||
:align: center | ||
|
||
The "Reboot Now!" button will be surrounded by a dashed pink | ||
outline while rebooting. When the dashed pink outline goes | ||
away, the reboot is finished. | ||
|
||
You can close the reboot screen by clicking the little x on its | ||
tab. You can then return to the main Linkam screen by clicking | ||
the yellow arrow at the top of the "IOC Diagnostics" screen. | ||
|
||
You are now ready to begin using the Linkam stage. | ||
|
||
|
||
Filling the 25 liter LN2 dewar | ||
------------------------------ | ||
|
||
#. Open both hutch doors. To open the right (manual) door, press the | ||
:green:`Front Right Maglock` button (the green light should go out) on | ||
the HMI panel. Push the door open manually. | ||
|
||
#. Open main LN2 valve. Use the button on the "06BM utilities" CSS | ||
screen or at the bsui command line do ``ln2.open()``. | ||
|
||
.. _fig-utilities: | ||
.. figure:: _images/BMM_utilities.png | ||
:target: _images/BMM_utilities.png | ||
:width: 60% | ||
:align: center | ||
|
||
#. Lower the dewar to the lowest possible position on the blue lift | ||
cart. | ||
|
||
.. _fig-25ldewar: | ||
.. figure:: _images/25ldewar.jpg | ||
:target: _images/25ldewar.jpg | ||
:width: 60% | ||
:align: center | ||
|
||
#. Place the dewar close to the LN2 tap, but some distance away from | ||
the O2 sensor on the ODH monitor. If using the 25 L dewar, move it | ||
on the cart at all times. (If using the 2 L dewar, secure the top | ||
while moving the dewar.) | ||
|
||
#. Don safety glasses, face shield, lab coat, and insulated gloves. | ||
All of those things can be found in the hutch. | ||
|
||
#. With gloved hand, place feed line securely in the dewar with the | ||
outlet at the bottom of the dewar. | ||
|
||
#. With gloved hand, open the manual valve. Listen to make sure the | ||
flow sounds OK. The noise should quiet down once liquid starts | ||
flowing. That should take a minute or less. | ||
|
||
#. Monitor the dewar **AT ALL TIMES** while filling. | ||
|
||
#. Look for the styrofoam float to know when the LN2 level is | ||
approaching the top. **DO NOT OVERFILL**. | ||
|
||
#. When full, using a gloved hand, close the valve in the hutch to | ||
stop LN2 flow. | ||
|
||
#. With a gloved hand, remove the feed line from dewar. Slide it into | ||
its resting place against the back wall, behind the cable trays. | ||
|
||
#. Move the blue cart back to its position near the experiment. Lift | ||
the dewar to its operating height such that the siphon reaches the | ||
Linkam stage. | ||
|
||
#. Do not remove glasses, face shield, lab coat, or gloves from the | ||
hutch. | ||
|
||
#. Open main LN2 valve. Use the button on the "06BM utilities" CSS | ||
screen or at the bsui command line do ``ln2.close()``. | ||
|
||
#. Press the :green:`Front Right Maglock` button. The green light should be | ||
on. Manually close the right hutch door. |
