Latest Balancing Of BSC8 ISI

(Corey, Greg, Jim)

This balancing encompasses two days.  We balanced the system by monitoring digital voltmeters connected to each Corner's mini-rack.  For the Stage1 CPS's we aimed for voltages under +/- 0.200V, and for the Stage2 (Fine) CPS's we aimed for voltages under +/-0.500V.  A negative voltage connotates a small gap w.r.t. Target Face, and a positive voltage obviously means a bigger gap. 

On Wed, we primarily addressed Stage2, and then stopped since we didn't have enough weights, and needed to consult MIT with our progress.  The notes for Wednesday's work is attached.  For today's work, we focused on finishing out Stage1 Balancing.  After the entire system was balanced we also noted mass placement for the system.
