Day 47

Morning
Still trying to get the bombardment circuit to work perfectly. Tony got a replacement transformer from Owen, as well as a modified trigger board. The electricians got the new transformer up onto the mezzanine, but it wasn't installed. Tony was looking into putting a resistive load on the end rather than using the real bombardment. We got the resistors we needed from the pig shed and then made up the board out in the electric shop. Tony and I spent some time looking at the zener diodes before lunch.

Afternoon
With the electricians swamped with calls, the changes to ebw 4 didn't get finished. I worked on my desired theory of operation document for ebw 1 and 5. It looks like the old program will be only slightly useful for creating the new setup. I used ebw 7 as an example on a procedure that uses states. With some work, the new program will look and run in a much more straight forward way than the current setup.
