keyword=e-arm Q1 alarms
Speak to Javier about alarm problems of e-arm Q1; he thinks it is similar to
h-arm Q1 earlier / last year: setpoint of dac and readback of adc are different,
so the readback momentum is off > about 10^-3, and alarm goes.
Suggested solution for now: wait after momentum changes until
it stabilizes, then adjust current of supply by ratio of momentum
wanted to momentum read back. This should give setting good to
better than 10^-3 and we should be okay. Should typically be off about
few tenths of amp, may be okay in some settings.
