Operators:
Dani added new EPICS alarms under the PSL menu to alert you in the event that eye-hazardous amounts of PSL laser power leaks past the RM.  Look for alarms in the IOO-MC_PWR_IN or RM OSEM channels that will alert you to excess light and a dangerously aligned RM, respectively.  If these alarms ring and you have not been informed accordingly, press the laser kill switch (at former scimon workstation) and call Dani immediately.

Yet, this is extremely unlikely because the RM has been railed with a hardware voltage bias that has been tagged out, the half waveplate rotator has been de-energized, and the PSL table interlocks are engaged.
