[Dsg-hallb_magnets] Hall B magnet (solenoid and torus) - Check list to be completed before switching on the MPS

[Brian Eng]

Hi Probir,

Most of DSG be busy with Hall C and HDIce work next week so we'll try and get the checklists done tomorrow (probably in the afternoon so we aren't trying to work in the same space as you and Nick).
