Re: Network

[David Webber <dwebber@npl.uiuc.edu>]

Hi Peter,

Our experiment is self-contained regarding the network.  We can acquire 
data and save it to tape without needing the PSI network.  We absolutely 
need the PSI network for two things:  FTP archiving of data and piE3 
beamline control.

Best,
David
