[Halld-controls] [Dsg-halld_plc] PVs to be added to IOC for display in WEDM

[Hovanes Egiyan]

Tyler,


Nick added an array of booleans for the status of solenoid MPS. It 
translates into two

mbbiDirect EPICS records .


HDOPS gluon02:~> caget -0b 'SOL:i:MPS_Status_Read_BOOL;0'
SOL:i:MPS_Status_Read_BOOL;0   1111000001
HDOPS gluon02:~> caget -0b 'SOL:i:MPS_Status_Read_BOOL;1'
SOL:i:MPS_Status_Read_BOOL;1   10101000
HDOPS gluon02:~>

The first one (";0") keep the lower 16 bits, the second one (";1") keep 
the higher bits.

EDM should be able to display these with byte monitor widget.
