CP4 pressure alarm settings changed

Pressure keeps rising in CP4 (PT-245B). I've asked Dave B. to raise the alarm set point one order of magnitude to 5e-4 Torr. I'm staying late again and Kyle is on stand-by to come on site later to babysit pumps, if needed.

Weird pressure curve at CP4. Eight hour trend attached. Tried to scan with RGA but pressure is too high for filament to stay on.
