The vacuum vessel is subdivided into four (4) sectors or quadrants, corresponding to the 4-fold symmetry of the machine (each sector being essentially identical). The enumeration of the sectors or quadrants (A through D) is shown in the top view of the machine.
The [[TJ-II:Vacuum system|vacuum vessel]] is subdivided into four (4) sectors or quadrants, corresponding to the 4-fold symmetry of the machine (each sector being essentially identical). The enumeration of the sectors or quadrants (A through D) is shown in the top view of the machine.
Each sector is subdivided into eight segments.
Each sector is subdivided into eight segments.
Each segment has two or three viewports, labelled 'TOP', 'BOTTOM', or 'SIDE'.
Each segment has two or three viewports, labelled 'TOP', 'BOTTOM', or 'SIDE'.
Segments 1 and 8 in each sector have an additional tangential port, labelled 'TANG'.


The toroidal angle φ is defined as zero between segment D8 and A1, and increases in the
North is up, corresponding to φ = 0°.
counterclockwise direction.
In the Experimental Hall, North is where the door to the Control Room is located.
South is up, corresponding to φ = 90º.
The toroidal angle φ is therefore zero between segment C8 and D1, and increases in the
counterclockwise direction as seen from above.
This definition of the toroidal angle coincides with the reference coordinate system used
during the [[TJ-II:Construction|construction]] of [[TJ-II]].
