====== Log monitor updated ======
The log monitor has had a major update. New features:
  * The station name is more prominent
  * The name of the current scan is given
  * Current disk usage and data recorded in previous scan are given
  * A disk volume offset can be set. This is useful when comparing to predicted data volumes from the summary file in the case, for example of a module being changed part way through an experiment, or appending to a module with another experiment on it.
  * There's a test button for the SMS so you can check that text messages are getting through
  * For the Hobart 26m, the cryogenics pressure and 20K and 70K stage temperatures are reported. If the pressure exceeds 5 microns of Hg two times in a row, the alarm is sounded. 
  * 26m cryo status monitoring can be turned off using a button under the "Configure" menu. This is useful if you know (and have reported) the problem but want to silence the alarms while it's being fixed.
  * GUI has been rearranged and fonds changed etc.

If you experience any problems with the new version, the old one can be used by typing pcfs_log_monitor_old.pl at the ops2 prompt.
