Omar,

Here's where we are at on the KIMM upgrade:

Assembly work:
*       Greg Motzko is working on cleaning up the two controller
cabinets later on this week.  He will gut out electronics that are not
needed anymore and pull off any panels that need a paint job.

Design work:
*       The STEX console is about 70% done documentation wise.  The
loopback drawer and user interface panels are finished.  Some internal
console cabling needs to be updated
*       The Table Controller documentation is about 60% done.  The
System Interface drawer (interface with existing system cables for HPU,
HSM, Static Lift, and Oil Press./Temp) is being drawn up this week.
Some internal console cabling needs to be updated as well.

To be done in the next 2 weeks:
*       Finish up documentation for both consoles.
*       Perform release for remaining electronics and cables that are
needed.  (As far as I know, the pre-release for the 20-slot cobra is
still on schedule for 3/29 delivery)
*       Greg Motzko to continue electrical assembly of the two consoles
*       Paint job on panels that need

Others:
*       The PC's need to be ordered for these two consoles.  I am
planning on doing this middle of March just so we don't end up with
obsolete PC's.

Let me know of any questions,

David C.
