7. 7  Several issues regarding the HVPS was identified  Ripple on the high voltage outputs  Non-zero minimum on high voltages  Mechanical manufacturing error  Analyzer channel walls not aligned to the same origo David McCann, IRF (david.mccann@irf.se) Workshop, Estec 14-15/9david.mccann@irf.se Functional test outcome 0.104 mm 0.133 mm Analyzer high voltage plate e-e- Deflector high voltage plates START plate START CCEM STOP CCEM STOP plate i+i+ i+i+ TOF Update and functional test results for SWIM

8. 8  Different settings to the deflector plates will scan through the azimuthal acceptance angle.  Plot showing pixel size at certain viewing angels.  Bold boxes is from calibrations, hollow markers from simulations.  Pixel size increasing with increasing angle.

10. 10  TOF spectra for H 2 O + using different post-acceleration settings.  One can clearly see the influence on the TOF-spectra. David McCann, IRF (david.mccann@irf.se) Workshop, Estec 14-15/9david.mccann@irf.se Functional test outcome Update and functional test results for SWIM

11. 11  Several issues regarding hardware were identified and corrected for.  The instrument performance meets the specifications in most aspects.  FM calibrations will thoroughly determine performance and prefered sensor settings.  Major point still pending satisfactory solution is the ion recoil problem.  FM calibrations will start during October 2006  Good luck in trying to get hold of David during the fall/winter of 2006.
