Patrick, Daniel, Cyrus, Alexa, Dave, Sheila

Around 3:30 this afternoon Alexa tried to test the whitening filter controls at end x.  The PLC was not running, and was asking the user to choose a run time system.  In the meantime I tried to remote login from the control room, which only worked using the IP adress, not using the server name.   After looking into this Cryus changed the network type to work (before it was public, and the windows firewall settings would not allow dave to ping the machine). 

The computer had a blue screen and rebooted. It did not start the twinCAT stuff on automatically as it should.  I tried going through the instal scripts.  There was no communication between ISC common and the End 2 beckhoff chassis.  Cryus gave Alexa and I a replacement cable.  After swapping the cable some of the modules were in the OP stae, some were PREOP with an INIT error. 

Patrick put the system manager into config mode and back to run mode all the modules are in the OP state.  We logged in and ran the PLCs, and restarted the epics database a few times.  There seems to be no communication with EPICs, the power shell says:
