    keyword=carbon doors opened

    Tim Holmstrom and I went and opened the 3" carbon door. Perhaps Tim has magic fingers, perhaps it was my twiddling the switch a few days ago, perhaps the limit switch is flaky and, all the switches being ~12 years old, we should replace it and the others.

    I did check that, when the out motion is enabled, you can stop the door by putting the out limit switch into the outward / made contact position, so perhaps it just stuck there this time when last opened.

    I spoke with Jack, if we do not do a preventative maintenance soon on these switches, we should do so before we next run the FPP. Right now no experiments are approved for it.
