+a.      Use the magnet predictor tool and set Quad 1 to the predicted value.  Do not make large abrupt changes to the Quad 1 current.  If a large abrupt change in current is attempted, the power supply may begin oscillating.  To stop this oscillation, run the current slider to zero then re-adjust to the desired current at a slower non-abrupt rate.

 **5.	Dipole Magnet Setup Instructions**
- **FOR OPERATION IN THE LARGE AND SMALL TARGET AREAS
+ a. Confirm that the Heinzinger power supplies are powered ON in the Small Target Room with the following LED's illuminated:  Red "ON", and Green "Remote".  If Off, Press the "Local/Remote" button to "Local"; then "Stby" then "On"; then "Local/Remote" to "Remote".
-**
- a.  Make sure both "analyzer" and "switcher_hz422" GUI's are turned down to zero amps using the GUI slider.
- b.  Confirm that the breaker on the beamline near the analyzer magnet is in the down "switch" position.
- c.  Switch the console "300 Amp ANAL/SWINGER" power supply to the "ANAL" mode using the deflection pushbutton switch.  If in the "SWING" mode press the "deflection" push button switch and wait for it to switch to the "ANAL" (right) mode, then press the "ON" pushbutton switch.
- d. Confirm that the "SWINGER" Heinzinger power supply is on with the following LED's illuminated:  Red "ON", and Green "Remote".  If Off, Press the "Local/Remote" button to "Local"; then "Stby" then "On"; then "Local/Remote" to "Remote".
- e. In "Switcher_hz422" GUI window, magnet deflection (left/right) is indicated on the "Switcher Magnet Current" line indicated as beam "left or right".
- f. The polarity can be toggled using the "Polarity" button located to the right of the "Lock" button.  When the "Polarity" button is pressed, the magnet current will automatically be set to zero and the polarity will reverse.
- g. Run the slider to the desired current.
-**  FOR OPERATION ON THE SWINGER MAGNET
-**
- a.  Make sure both "analyzer" and "switcher_hz422" GUI's are turned down to zero amps using the GUI slider.
- b.  Confirm that the breaker on the beamline near the analyzer magnet is in the up "null" position.
- c. Switch the "300 Amp ANAL/SWINGER" power supply to the "SWING" mode using the deflection pushbutton switch.  If in the "ANAL" mode press the "deflection" push button switch and wait for it to switch to the "SWING" (left) mode, then press the "ON" pushbutton switch.
- d. Confirm that the "SWINGER" Heinzinger power supply is on with the following LED's illuminated:  Red "ON", and Green "Remote".  If Off, Press the "Local/Remote" button to "Local"; then "Stby" then "On"; then "Local/Remote" to "Remote".
- e. Do not go over 20 Amps of Switcher/Anal current in the null mode.  If you do, the breaker near the analyzer magnet may trip and need to be reset to the "Null" position after running the magnet to zero current.
- f. The polarity can be toggled using the "Polarity" button located to the right of the "Lock" button.  When the "Polarity" button is pressed, the magnet current will automaticaly be set to zero and the polarity will reverse.
- g. Run the slider to the desired current.
+ b. If not already visible on the control room computer screen, start the appropriate software GUI's using the "Restart" button for "analyzer, switcher, swinger, or tweaker" magnets.
+ c. In the "Switcher_hz422" and "Analyzer_hz422" GUI windows, magnet beam deflection (left/right) is indicated on the "Magnet Current" line indicated as beam "left or right". The polarity can be toggled using the "Polarity" button located to the right of the "Lock" button.  When the "Polarity" button is pressed, the magnet current will automatically be set to zero and the polarity will reverse when the new magnet current is set.  The "Swinger_hz422" and "Tweaker" have no polarity reversal button.
+ d. Run the slider to the desired current.
