All non-bulk channels
All of the the non-bulk channels of this module would, when HV was on, report currents ranging from 5 to 95 microamps, regardless of the load applied or whether the channel was enabled or not.  The reported currents would waver between these limits.

B68009
1471N
B68009_00 & 
B68009_02
Channel B68009_00 consistantly produced a current that was more than 1 uA greater than other channels with identical loads and voltages.  B68009_02 produced a voltage that was more than 4V greater than demand, while its MVDZ was 1.1 V.
MuID
4/15/99
No
B68147

B68147_03
This channel consistently produced voltages more than 5V greater than demand, while its MVDZ was set at 1.1V.
MuID

No
B68018
1471P
B68018_07
When HV was on and the Demand Voltage set to 0, this channel produced more than 48 V.

No
B68139
1471N
B68139_01 & B68139_05
B68139_01 frequently reported a voltage 3-4 Volts greater than demand, while the MVDZ was set to 1.1 V.  Channel B68139_05 constantly tripped during long-term testing, starting with Peak Current Trips, then Voltage Supply Limit Trips, then settling on Voltage Chance Rate Trips.
TEC

No
B68033
1471N
B68033_00
With the HV ON and channel B68033_00 enabled, this channel reported a -41.3 voltage when the demand was for zero volts.
MuID
5/27/99
No
B68372
1471P
B68372_01
This channel incurred 6 Peak Current Trips during long term testing, which is excessive, considering the very low number of trips developed during the tests of the other channels.
DC
6/02/99
No
B68943
1471N
B68943_01
This channel incurred 18 Peak Current Trips during long term testing, which is excessive, considering the very low number of trips developed during the tests of the other channels.

No
B67826
1471N
B67826_02
This channel's voltage was consistently 4 Volts higher than demand, while its MVDZ was set to 1.1 V.
MuID
6/07/99
No
B68149
1471P
B68149_03 & B68149_05
Both these channels had an excessive number of Peak Current trips during testing (8 and 21, repectively).
BB
6/24/99
No
B67657
1461N006
B67657_02
After functioning briefly in the PHENIX Experimental Hall, this channel became damaged somwhow. It now trips (either a Voltage Error or Current Trip) for any voltage greater than -200V, and, if set below -200V, only provides a quarter or less of the Demand Voltage.
MuID
7/13/99
No
B68393
1471P
B68393_02 & B68393_06
These channels tripped excessively during long term testing. Channel 2 had 15 seperate Peak Current violations, and channel 6 had 13. Both were using the same loads, voltages and Peak Current trips as other channels of this type (which reported no problems).
DC
7/22/99
No
B68370
1471N
B68370_01 & B68370_03
These channels produced voltages higher than required during long-term testing. The voltages were elevated 5 and 11 volts, respectively, while the MVDZ was set at 1.2 V.

No
B67766
1469N
nb.19 of 24
Channel 19/24 in bulk 2 does not provide output voltage at the backplane pin. However, a correct "measured voltage" can be read from the crate.

developed no voltage output at 2nd bulk, pin 8
developed no voltage output at 2nd bulk, pin 8. Seems that the relais is faulty, since voltage can be 'measured' by the LeCroy system.
