Spare sensor was ordered. Should we restore the sensor in the alarm and the usual instruction to stop run if the alarm goes off?
 +
** NMR probe fixed (Tim/Scot). Then [https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/4116505 it froze again] until this morning, 6:24am. [https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/4116955 Now it is working again after Scot cycled it]. Linked to Tagger magnet DCCT current sensor cycling.
