Added BPG402 gauges for BSC7 and BSC8 to h1ecatc1
Log for work done Monday March 14 under WP 5776 and WP 5777.

The BSC7 X2 PT170 and BSC8 Y2 PT180 Pirani and Cold Cathode vacuum gauges were replaced with Inficon BPG402-SE EtherCAT vacuum gauges. Filiberto connected these to the second EtherCAT port of the h1ecatc1 computer:
'h1ecatc1 (in MSR) Local Area Connection 4' - 'ethernet cable' - 'CU1521 EtherCAT media converter (Multimode) (in MSR)' - 'fiber cable' - 'CU1521 EtherCAT media converter (Multimode) (in LVEA)' - 'ethernet cable' - 'CU1128 EtherCAT junction box (in LVEA)'
The CU1128 EtherCAT junction box has 8 ports: Port 1 is the incoming connection. Ports 2 and 3 were left empty. BPG402 on BSC7 (Box 294 in the system manager) was connected to port 4. BPG402 on BSC8 (Box 295 in the system manager) was connected to port 5. Ports 6, 7 and 8 were left empty.

I added channels for these in PLC1 and updated the system manager. I committed the changes to svn and restarted everything. I may have also gotten some changes that Joe B. committed to svn for PLC3 (see attached screenshot).

When I restarted the EPICS IOC the script that automatically copies over the generated error medm screens, INI and autoburt request files failed. A screenshot of the error is attached. I used WinSCP to copy over the INI and autoburt request files by hand.

The following channels were added for these gauges:

H1:VAC-LX_X2_PT170_PRESS_VALID
H1:VAC-LX_X2_PT170_PRESS_OVERRANGE
H1:VAC-LX_X2_PT170_PRESS_UNDERRANGE
H1:VAC-LX_X2_PT170_PRESS_TORR
H1:VAC-LX_X2_PT170_PRESS_SENSOR
H1:VAC-LX_X2_PT170_PRESS_TRIP
H1:VAC-LY_Y2_PT180_PRESS_VALID
H1:VAC-LY_Y2_PT180_PRESS_OVERRANGE
H1:VAC-LY_Y2_PT180_PRESS_UNDERRANGE
H1:VAC-LY_Y2_PT180_PRESS_TORR
H1:VAC-LY_Y2_PT180_PRESS_SENSOR
H1:VAC-LY_Y2_PT180_PRESS_TRIP

The failure of the script to copy over the files was because /opt/rtcds was not mounted on opsws3 due to the file server change over.
