[Hps] ECal position

That's right!

   When we installed the ECal the first time, the distance between top 
ECal and vacuum chamber, and bottom ECal and vacuum chamber were very 
similar (we moved the calorimeter mm by mm so we could see a 1 mm 
difference), we concluded that it was due to the position of the 
chamber. There may be 1 mm difference between the center of the chamber 
and the "true" center, so it was hard to conclude at that time. The 
calorimeter box could also be 1 mm down, the targets used for the survey 
being independant of the box.

  Anyway, your idea is probably right, could tracking help?

Regards,
