Instrument Upgrades Lessons Learned

Put ideas here! e.g. unintended consequences, long tail of unplanned work (script updates)

• Cabling changes involve risk. Example is KPF detector noise when conversion from Archon to Lakeshore heater control was done.

• Related, but more for instrument builds: non-detector signal routing should generally be through different cables than detector signals. Example is KPF detector noise.

• Instrument components should be checked to see if their use in the instrument is inline with their intended use. Altitude ratings should be checked and appropriate measures for cooling or de-rating should be considered. Example is KPF turbo pump.
