Subject: Pumping down the RGA section 

So that Jordan can run the RGA scan this afternoon, I ran TP3 and started pumping down the RGA section.

Procedure:
- Same 1~4
- Same 5
- 6 Opened only the backing path for TP3
- 7 Turned on TP3 only

- TP3 reached the nominal full speed @75kRPM

- 11 Opened V5 to pump the pump spool -> Immediately reached P3<1e-4
- 12 Opened VM3 to pump the RGA section -> Immediately reached P4<1e-4

The pumps are kept running. I'll come back later to shut down the pumps.
=> Jordan wants to heat the filament (?) and to run the scan tomorrow.
So we decided to keep TP3 running overnight. I switched TP3 to the stand-by mode (= lower rotation speed @50kRPM)
