    keyword=Updates on status of R-arm

    We checked a few things for R-arm. The first thing is about gated signals. The run gate combined with gated signals should be a veto signal, not run gate itself. This resolves the problem about gated signals.

    The second one is scalar problem. We have 6 scalar modules (slot 0 ~ slot 5). 3 of them work well, while other 3 ignore the veto signals. Bob suggested us to use the same module setting as those in BigBite. Unfortunately, the one we get from BB is the terminated one. With kalyan's help, we remove those unneccesary resistors and those work well except one. This one should be a bad module since we test it with a good signal. Its "CLR" light is on all the time and all scalar readings are zero. Finally, we decided to use the spare one that belongs to S1 and S2 "OR" scalars. Since we have an 12 PMTs scalars for S1 and S2, this should be fine. After we finish these works, the normalization scalars look good. We put that bad module in the crate, otherwise the readings from this slot are -1. However, we have to correct the scalar map since slot 1 and slot 3 are swapped when we see xscalar display.
