The problem seemed to be that the IOC for the detectors in the left and right arms seemed to freeze.
The solution to the problem was to do the software reboot for iocha22 and iocha11. After a long while the reboot finished. We then loaded systemO/system.o by (ld<system)/system.o) hand as an entry made on March 6th seemed to suggest that.
After this the hall A general tools responded normally EXCEPT that the Right Arm HV controls is alarming that it is not connected (these are the HV controls that are in the HV gui). We believe that this was disabled somehow in the past but we are not sure how. As such this is left up to Alex or Jack for tomorrow (as we can simply silence that alarm tonight).
We also set the high voltages for the VDCs to 4.o kV.
