EY TMS In-Vac Cabling Work (cont.)

Continued checking out cables for electrical shorts and running cables.  Today worked on SUS TMS cables.  Other than observing I had a flip in the wires via the feedthru we were able to say we are happy with the two SUS/BOSEM cables for the TMS.  They are connected at the Cable Bracket & have been screwed together.

Since the cable gets flipped, the pins on the D1000223 (sei-responsible cable) yesterday (pin 13 & 16), are really (pin 1 & 23).  One of these is the shield and the other is a picomotor cable.  We don't want a short with this cable, so tried looking for tight clamps or crimps in the cable.  I didn't find anything other than possibly an issue near the Cable Bracket on the Optics Table.  When I moved the cable around I was able to get rid of the short every once in a while (but it mainly stayed shorted out).  So this may be a problem cable. 

Unfortunately, this is a cable we have run out of.  So we need to either figure out how to fix it, or see if another cable will work in its place.
