Morning
Document updates. I updated the I/O layout to include more information, the Theory of Operation document to reflect some of the changes that we discussed on Monday, and the drawings that I made yesterday for the trending network stuff. I still have more to do on the Theory doc, but it's getting closer to completion. We got out to the welder to try out Tim's new controls finally. There were a couple of bugs to work around, but Tony got a beam going in there.
Afternoon
Looking at the controls, the PID's were really out of whack. Tony started adjusting the numbers on the fly to produce a smoother transition between the auto and manual state. He also got a few just plain fixes in there to make the thing run. There were still some issues with the bombardment ramp and getting a beam back after an arc.
