JEOL 9500 Update
The JEOL 9500 should be back online Wednesday afternoon. We are running a final test overnight which we don't expect to have any problems with. Wednesday morning we will need to create all the condition files. After this the tool will be back up.

-------------------------------------------------
The 9500 is currently having some kind of communication problem causing the software to lock up. At the beginning of an exposure the software will crash during pattern transfer. The service engineer has been in and the factory is currently looking into the problem. We will post an update when we have more information.
