Subject: Failure due to thermal budget
Message-ID: <6.2.5.6.2.20110907112102.02a4f750@stanford.edu>

All,

The water leaks were caused by running the system too long at too 
high of a temperature.  This resulted in overheating of the cooling 
lines and hence failure at the fittings.  You must recognize when you 
need to move to a furnace and not run an excessive thermal budget in 
the RTP's.  Failure to do so will result in disqualification.

I understand it is difficult to define a thermal budget window as the 
time factor has to decrease significantly as the temperatures go 
up.  This failure resulted from a 5 minute anneal at a higher temperature.

Remember if you don't know, always ask first as it's better than 
disqualification.

Subject: RTA aw610r -- Pyrometer mode?
Message-ID: <CAAnEngngwZh-Sj=PiObpwkwLc60Dxe68vhJac4Q4EmmtyOiXng@mail.gmail.com>

Hello RTA users,

I'm interested in using the RTA in pyrometer mode soon. Could I request a
conversion to pyro mode sometime in the next few days? To be more exact, it
would be especially great if we could use it either this Friday morning or
Monday around 5pm.

Also, we would greatly appreciate any help we could get from aw610
super-users who might know how to make the switch!

Thanks for all your help,

--Katie

Would like to reserve some slots in pyro mode, too.  Either Friday or Monday is fine.

Thanks,
