New controls and medm screens for BSC-ISI
A previous post detailed the new controls that were added to the BSC-ISI master model. These included feed forward (all DOF) and sensor correction (XYZ) from the HEPI L4Cs to BSC-ISI Stage 1, feed forward (all DOF) from BSC-ISI Stage 1 to Stage 2 using a blend of the Stage 1 T240s and L4Cs, and sensor correction (XYZ) from Stage 1 to Stage 2 using the Stage 1 T240s. 

Other things added to the master model include the GUARD block for guardian development and band-limited RMS filters (BLRMS) that use the Stage 1 T240s and Stage 2 GS13s to calculate the motion of the platform and normalize it on a log scale to the Advanced LIGO requirement. Vincent has wisely added a measurement indicator variable to the top level of the model, so I have added a blinking light to the overview screen to indicate when a measurement is in progress.

I've attached two screenshots of the new overview screens to this post. Some concern has been expressed that the screens are too small for the large monitors in the control room, and I am happy to develop a larger version of the screen if more people echo this sentiment.

We have also changed the macro inheritance variables that the seismic MEDM screens use. The variables should now be as follows: 
SITE=LHO,
site=lho,
IFO=H2,
ifo=h2,
CHAMBER=ITMY,
chamber=itmy,
IOP=H2IOPSEIB8,
iop=h2iopseib8,
USERAPPS_DIR=/opt/rtcds/userapps/release,
DCU_ID=75
From these variables, all necessary paths should be available to the user.

We are continuing to determine why sharing ADCs between models is weird.
