6/4/08 Adams up and running for checkout.
One of the power supplies running 3 adams died. It suffered from thermal shutdown and dropped its output to 4vdc killing the adams. It's rating is 12Ain and was operating in the wind tunnel: not encouraging given prospects in central valley. After letting it cool, we restarted and measured the following currents and measured the profile adam running on a second supply:
