Someone from Team PSL should look into why the Front End Watch is red and the Front End Power is being reported as zero when it is actually not.

The FE power was being reported by a power meter inside the HPO which is no longer included in the beam path. The new reading wil come from the pick-off that was installed at the output of the MOPA in conjunction with the 70W amplifier installation (channel for this TBA). I'm not sure about the FE watchdog showing RED. HPO WD needs to be changed to amplifier(or something) WD and LRA range is no longer of any use.  Also, I noticed that output power of the new amp is being reported as the HPO power (simple metadata change?). Everything else looks ok. I can look into this further and see about working on getting that MEDM screen/channels edited.

The script used to create the above report needs to be updated (it's on my list to sit down with TJ and do this).  As Ed says, the FE power is being measured by a PD that is no longer in use; a new one has been installed and the channel exists (H1:PSL-AMP_PWR4 if I remember off the top of my head correctly).  The watchdog was red because it was OFF, so the report was functioning as intended here.  We also need some name changes for some of the items (HPO Output Power should be something like "70W Amp Output Power" and likewise for the watchdog), as well as an edit of the System Status check to match the changes for the 70W amplifier.
