5. Start pre-cool phase:  Open VPC → Open VJV(A/B) → Monitor TX1, TX2, TX3

   1. Charts of TX1, TX2 & TX3:  https://e906-gat1.fnal.gov/data-summary/e1039/target-par-preset/cool_down.php
   2. TX1 goes down below 100 K in 5 minutes.  If not, there should be a problem.
      
      
6. After ~8mins: 
   1. Open the magnet-bypass valve (i.e. the black hand valve right next to the magnet flow controller),
   2. Open the Magnet Return flow, by changing the flow mode to "OPEN" on the "THCD_401_Main.vi" on the Cryo Control Panel, and
   3. Open VJVT on the HMI screen.
      
      
7. After ~1min: Close VPC and monitor magnet pressure.

   ** Note: If the REGX green hand valve is fixed (check with Target Expert on Shift), then do not change it: just proceed with step #10 *****

   > If you need to change the pressure difference between the magnet and the Dewar then use the REGX all the time to maintain the pressure difference that you need (eg: ~4psi)
8. After a couple of minutes, you will observe that the magnet pressure drops down suddenly and stay around ~1.4-1.5 psi (this indicates that LHe is flowing to the magnet after the pre-cooling of the last part of the transfer line).
9. Fill the magnet until the level shows ~44%.
   1. Keep monitoring the liquid amount and the pressure at https://e906-gat1.fnal.gov/data-summary/e1039/target-par-preset/transfer.php.
10. Stop the fill if the level reached ~44% or any sudden change occurred during the transfer indicating a problem.
    
    1. Open VPC
    2. Close VJVT
    3. Close VJV(A/B)
11. Navigate to the liquefier page on the HMI screen and close SVP(A/B) → Switch the Liquefier to "Liquefy mode".
12. Wait for 1-3 minutes until the magnet pressure (on the HMI screen) goes down to 1 psi.
13. Close the Magnet bypass hand valve.
14. Change the mode of the Magnet Return flow from "OPEN" to "AUTO" on the THCD_401_Main.vi , and then click the "Automation" toggle switch.
15. Make sure that you leave the VPC open, to capture all the boil-off from the transfer line until it is warm (check TX1). — We need not check TX1 but let VPC open, correct?
16. Calculate the transfer efficiency of the transfer using https://e906-gat1.fnal.gov/data-summary/e1039/ (see the following screenshot as an example), and write an elog entry on UVA elog.
