The fopt/CS data demonstrates differently, correct? Reviewing what Kitty posted last night, looks different from data a few weeks ago. Are our tools fooling us then?</div>

<div>There is no blown optics. Its within specs in main machine. What's blown is the B beam which is already drastically different at end of injector whereas the other 3 are similar in size. So, matching the INJ won't be able to work for all 4. We matched with
A, the high current beam.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Figuring out why B is off from the start will take looking at its behavior in early injector and management wants us to punt on B giving priority to A, D and C.</div>

Do we know what the driver is for the blown optics? If memory serves me well, we corrected the optics a week or two ago. We did an injector match after the first wien change (again, if memory serves me well.....I am getting old). Perhaps it's "burt restore
integrity"? Recommend, if we're not doing this already, once we have corrected optics in the main machine and in the Halls we establish a "golden allsave" with zero pos, post in PD shift plan under standing orders. Once we return from maintenance we can at
least compare present machine with the golden allsave and zero pos, also keeping track of what was changed/repaired/swapped out during maintenance. </div>

holds. I also recommend rematching Injector to NL YMMV<br>
