keyword=adc gains wrong AGAIN
Once again we have an adc gain wrong, this time for BCM2. Luckily we haven't
taken any data like this (the reboot was right before the Moller measurement,
and we are just now getting back on line). Not only would the BMC raw signal
and pedestal noise be different for data taken in this configuration, but the
pedestal would also not match other data... This kind of noise in the equipment
parameters will make analysis a nightmare.
One topic to be discussed at tomorrow's meeting is how we manage changing of
channels, and setting configuration parameters. The "double-click in
greenmonster after every reboot" concept has to die a sudden death, and be
replaced by something robust.
