 +If you are stopping the previous schedule early (e.g. finishing a Fringe Check schedule ahead of time), use ''​halt''​ to stop the schedule and then make sure the disk has stopped recording:
 +<​code>​
 +halt
 +disk_record=off
 +</​code>​
 +
 +Now make sure you have the correct Mark5 module selected. Type <​code>​mk5=vsn?</​code>​ and check the serial number against what you think it should be. For the March LBA session, a list of modules agains experiments is given in the [[http://​ra-wiki.phys.utas.edu.au/​index.php?​n=Schedules.LBAMar13|Observing Roster]] page. If you need to change modules use the ''​mk5=bank_set''​ command. e.g. to change to Bank B:<​code>​mk5=bank_set=b</​code>,​ then run <​code>​mk5=dot?</​code>​to check.
