[Swreq] Modification of FEL Rapid access system in vault for measuring neutrons this week

[Melvin Washington]

With the proposed method of providing an additional unit RM212, the FEL 
rapid access system doesn't need to be tampered with and thus can 
continue providing a rapid access function.  The additional unit will 
provide you with neutron and gamma measurements and Dave is working on 
setting up a signal in epics to accommodate this test plan.  We should 
have everything in place and functioning sometime tomorrow morning, 
provided we have access to the vault.
