    keyword=Work on Raster Attenuator Settings

    After consulting with Bryan, I adjusted the attenuator settings for the
    raster x and y currents. Bryan was concerned that we might saturate if
    we decide to use a larger raster size. Hence I adjusted the attenuator
    settings until the signal after the module was about -10 mV.

    I looked at run 2287 and saw that we were clipping the raster signal at
    zero. So I decided to restore the settings to -37 mV. We need to
    balance the raster size against being too low (no ADC reading) and too high
    (saturation). I figured that -37 mV was a fair balance that would
    give us a little room at lower values just in case we end up with a
    larger raster than 4 mm x 4 mm (in MCC units).
