WBSC10 EndY ETMY HEPI Pump Servo Switched to Actual Differential Pressure

re WP 4913

I switched the HEPI pump Servo to run on the true differential pressure as LLO has been doing forever.  I did glitch the system through my sillyness.  I was all ready to do it without any serious glitch and next time it will be better.  Still, the HEPI position loops on the platform did not trip--pretty good support for the hydraulic system.  The differential pressure now does look slightly noisier based on the time series.  But of course this is now a sum of two noisy signals, maybe time for some smoothing and serious grounding study.

Attached is 45 minutes of second trends for the Pump station channels and some cartesian basis HEPI L4C signals.  I don't see any ill affects of this transition so far.

So the alarm manager is okay as I changed the database alarms.  The medm though is also common so if you open the EndY HEPI Pump Servo medm, it will show pressure not okay.  When it is deemed okay to continue down this path, I'll update the medm when I install the same database changes at EndX.
