Updated Conlog channel list
added 196 channels
removed 6 channels

Guardian user message channels are now being recorded, however the web and command line interfaces need to be updated to display them as strings instead of integer arrays.

script to convert guardian byte arrays to string

I have written a convertByteArrayToString script which can take the output from conlog when viewing Guardian USERMSG channels and convert the resulting byte array into a string.

For example, the conlog display of the Guardian EPICS channel H1:GRD-ISC_DOF_USERMSG is show in the attachment below.

To convert to the array to a string, use your mouse to select and copy the array contents from your web browser, the paste it into the following command in a terminal:

echo "110 111 100 101 32 76 83 67 95 67 79 78 70 73 71 83 58 32 78 79 84 73 70 73 67 65 84 73 79 78 44 32 114 101 113 117 101 115 116 32 99 104 97 110 103 101 100 32 102 114 111 109 32 80 82 88 95 76 79 67 75 69 68 32 116 111 32 68 79 87 78 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32 32"|convertByteArrayToString
