Brian went in to Hall B last week to check the the RICH N2 volume cRIO that failed and it looks like the cRIO will have to be replaced.<br>

Until the cRIO issue is resolved, can Hall B Engineering periodically check the local N2 flow readout for RICH on the top of the forward carriage to make sure the detector is still getting appropriate N2 flow? We're still all working from home and have to make
special arrangements to go in to the lab.<br>

We can remotely see that the humidity in the RICH electronic panel is still very low (below the point we're able to read with the humidity sensors), but it'd still be good to check the flow meters in case something happens to that cRIO.<br>

Peter noticed this a few days ago and I asked Hall B engineering to check on the cRIO. Their response was not helpful since they just looked at the cRIO chassis from the outside. I have since asked them to recheck the chassis, looking inside to see if there
are any lights flashing inside, but this probably won't be done today.<br>
