How to perform a BPM pedestal run:

1. MCC hast to follow the following procedure:

    - open BPM window "BPM Diagnostics - SEE"
    - from there pull down the "Expert Screens" and open "Gain Control"
    - for IOCSE10, use the pull down window and change from "auto gain" to "forced gain". 
    - then change the forced gain values x and y to zero.

2. CODA has to run in pedestal mode:

    - if you were running before you first have to press Abort
    - choose the appropriate configuration in runcontrol
    - select "PEDRUN"  - Press RunTypes button in RunControl

3. Have MCC change the BPM gain back to "auto gain".

4. Run get_bpm_pedestals.C in the root analyzer:

    - you might have to modify some details 
    - the code should print out the new pedestals at the end 
    - load the database into an editor and change them (2nd line of the [BPMx] blocks)
