 +   - INCREMENTAL ENERGY STEP.  A couple of routines have been written to help tune the switcher magnet and quadrupole magnets to a new energy after a good beam tune has been established at the current energy and you wish to move to a new energy (especially if the energy move is small). This routine scales the magnet currents linearly based on the ratio of the previous energy analyzer current and the new analyzer current. To use this feature (after a good tune at one energy and before attempting to change to a new energy) type the command ​
 +   -- "​base"​ in the blue terminal window. This will establish the base energy from which the new energy is scaled. After tuning the analyzer magnet to the new NMR frequency"​ type the command ​
 +   -- "​retune"​ in the blue terminal window and the switcher magnet and each quadrupole magnet will be set to the new value scaled by the ratio of the base analyzer current and the new analyzer current. ​
