Subject: Updated Suspension screens/Megatron now c1ioo/Further work on fb 

The medm screens have been updated further, with the hidden matrices added in bright colors.  An example screen shot is attached.

Megatron has been renamed c1ioo and moved to martian network.  Similarly, c1sus and c1iscex are also on the martian network.  Medm screens can be run on any of the control machines and they will work.

Currently the suspension controller is running on c1sus.

The frame builder is currently running on the fb machine *however* it is not working well.  Test points and daq channels on the new front ends tended to crash it when Alex started the mx_stream to the fb via our new DAQ network (192.168.114.XXX, accessible through the front ends or fb - has a dedicated 1 gigabit network with up to 10 gigabit for the fb).  So for the moment, we're running without front end data. Alex will be back tomorrow to work on it. 

Alex claimed to have left the frame builder in a state where it should be recording slow data, however, I can't seem to access recent trends (i.e. since we started it today).  The frame builder throws up an error "Couldn't open raw minute trend file '/frames/trend/minute_raw/C1:Vac-P1_pressure', for example.  Realtime seems to work for slow channels however.  Remember to connect to fb, not fb40m. So it seems the fb is still in a mostly non-functional state.

Alex also started a job to convert all the old trends to the correct new data format, which should finish by tomorrow.

RA: Nice screen work. The old screens had a 'slow' slider effect when ramping the bias so that we couldn't whack the optic too hard. Is the new one instantaneous?
