Instrument air PT199 "LOW" alarms this weekend

Operators Note:

As part of an ongoing investigation that is looking at correlated IFO noise to the pressure cycling? value? of the instrument air, the pressure band (High - Low) has been changed.  Expect PT199 "LOW" alarms all weekend.  Please pass this on to the incoming operator.

Can we change the thresholds on the control room alarm handler? If so, what would be good upper and lower limits?

You can reduce the lower threshold to 54 psi until we can make adjustment next week. 50 psi is when the pneumatic GVs start to sag.
