 +       * The pressures in the mechanical pump (from **I259PG**) and beam chamber (from **I261PG**) will jump momentarily to very high values. They should go down slowly after few seconds (otherwise, the chamber is not properly closed). 
 +       * When pressure in the chamber (from **I261PG**) gets below 100 mTorr (at least 30 min), **I260RV** will close. Foreline valve **I260FV** will open followed by the turbo gate valve **I260GV**. 
 +  * Wait for few hours until vacuum is good. You can then turn on the ion gauge **I264IG**
