HAM ISI guardian: ready for HAM2/HAM3 deployment

As mentioned previously, we have been testing the new ISI_HAMX guardian infrastructure on HAM4, in preparation for deployment on HAMs 2 and 3.

At this point things are looking good to go.  We've interated with the Stanford SEI team to iron out all the configuration and behavioral issues.  We made one last change to the DEISOLATION state to smooth out the isolation gain ramp down (userapps svn r7300), and it seems to be working fine.  We've now gone through many cycles of changing to all the full isolation levels, and everything looks good.  Therefore I think we're ready to move on to HAM2 and HAM3:

Deployment of HAM2 and HAM3 ISI Guardians will commence at 07:00 PST, February 27, 2014.

We will seize this target of opportunity tomorrow morning while the SUS and ISC teams are running suspension actuator diagnolization measurements on ITMX.  They have confirmed that theeir measurements will likely run through the early afternoon, so we will start early to make sure we have plenty of time to test the code.  The basic testing procedure will be:

  1. note/store all current target offset values
  2. reset the CPS target offsets
  3. store the newly reset target offsets
  4. run through all states
  5. set targets to large offsets (150 um/urad)
  6. run through all states

If the behavior looks good, we will leave the ISI_HAM2 and ISI_HAM3 guardians running.
