Following the installation of the OS and HWS_CODE on the H1HWSMSR1 computer for HWSY we found we couldn't get the HWS code to run properly. It turned out that the new computer had an old BASHRC file (where the environment variables for the HWS code are defined). I fixed this by duplicating the BASHRC file from H1HWSMSR. I've attached it below. 

The two computers are identical in all respects but one. Due to the way the HWS code currently runs, each computer creates EPICS channels for ITMX and ITMY. In order to avoid duplicate channels messing up EPICS, I've made the following two changes:

On H1HWSMSR (the HWSX computer) in .bashrc:

• export OPTIC0=ITMY0_HWS 

  • a fake ITMY0 channel is created

On H1HWSMSR1 (the HWSY computer) in .bashrc:

• export OPTIC1=ITMX0_HWS 

  • a fake ITMX0 channel is created
