Messy DAQ restart

Jim W had finished his TFs, so we went ahead with a DAQ restart. The restart failed due to duplicated slow channels in the corner station Beckhoff EDCU files. Both H1EDCU_ECATC1PLC1.ini and H1EDCU_ECATC1PLC12.ini had the following two channels defined:

for now I have removed them from both INI files.

h1dc0 actually starting running, with an EDCU channel count of zero. This is unusual, it would normally not start. However the other DAQ systems did not restart.

I restarted h1dc0 via port 8087 as usual, it ran correctly but the other DAQ components did not restart. I used monit to restart the frame writers, NDS and broadcaster. All systems then came online.

The EDCU is now green (I had to manually removed TCS_ITMY from the guardian INI file)
