All rondes are broken, THOMX key is turned. What is the reason of this intervention?,  There is nobody around. Jean-Noel came and helped to solve the problems.

Help is needed to set up everythiing (rondes sous-sol, PSS....) and tune the photocathode laser.

The cemeras and laser are working now. But we do not see the laser beam. Daniele checked the laser spot in the casemat. Apparently it is cut. Help is needed with the laser!
