We always can survey HyCal in Hall coordinates. The alignment is another story. Yes, we won't be able to do fine tuning (pitch/yaw/roll and Z translation). But we still can do X and Y translation using transporter to align hycal face centered on the geometrical beam axis. Survey guys can tell us how much up/down left/right to move. And they can tell tell us pitch/yaw/roll angles. We won't be able to adjust them but we will know them. My claim that for the short test run since HyCal is not calibrated anyways these angles are not very important if they are not 0. We will have to redo all the alignment procedures in May. For the test run the goal is to learn how to do that. THe other goal is to see that all the electronics and DAQ works as we want it.

I can try to write it up but I need some numbers from Chris: horizontal and distances to the edges of the quadrants.
