Gary is setting up to run some cycle tests.
He has connected the diborane piezo acquisition signal to
an INCAA someplace, so we will want to run some pulses 

Using /usr/local/cmod/codes/pcs3-Beta/pcs 
Load_from 1060301002 (the pulse that worked on Wed.)

Ready for Shot#1

Shot#1: No puff. Got output from DPCS, no signal
on the INCAA (Input_11) and no puff seen on the 
ratiomatic. Maybe PLC not setup correctly or an interlock
issue? Maybe hanging the digitizer off the line is loading?

Shot#2: Hybrid Enable to diborane puff was not on for shot#1 
Once more, with feeling!

Got gas. Got signal on input_11. Looks like there is about a
4V offset on the piezo valve (0.4V on the acquisition signal).
According to Gary this is way below the level that admits any
gas at all on this valve. 

Save the scope with the new trace in
