[BLAST_ANAWARE] a few about the epics hv daemon

Hello,
as you probably already know there was a problem with the epics hv
control: it does not execute the ~/bin/beamgate_on/_off command
when ramping the HV up/down. This is not good since we need to
measure the beamgate inhibited charge. Note that beamgate_on/_off also
correctly restarts/kills warnevent and you don't get messages "no data
coming" when the data is not supposed to come because the hv is off...

So if you want to use the autofill and the new hvDaemon make sure the
above feature is enabled and/or type beamgate_on/_off by hand (from any
dblast07 window). Just make sure to put it on to take data...

If you are confused, hvDaemon was doing all this for you just fine

Last hv question: is compton turned on ??? (doesn't have to be ramped down)
