16:37 EX sensor correction off as the BRS was ringing up from Randys' loading of the ergo lift.

17:18 Sheila unlocked the rotation stage and I turned up the power to 1W, Sheila then relocked it.

17:35 UTC I used the ALS nodes to run an alignment for GRREN_ARMs, ALSX locked after a few taps of ETMX but ALSY took more convincing

19:30 UTC I started to run TFs for MC1, then MC3 aand RyanS did MC2

23:10 UTC SUSHB13 crashed, possible from Marc's work in a close by rack

23:17 UTC ITMX, ITMY WDs tripped, SW, ISI ST1, ISI ST2, and HEPI

23:31 I remeasured MC1 P and confirmed that the Coil Driver swap was unsuccessful, the TF still looked the same. I also ran an undamped OSEM spectra before and after the swap.
