    4. Simultaneously set up Peli case with Clatterbridge stacks and FPGAs ready for shoot throughs.
    5. Measure light output from shoot through and set exposure time.
    6. Record photos of single block light output for energies from 70 MeV to ~150MeV (maximum energy with beam still in block).
  7. Set up Peli case for Clatterbridge DAQ measurements:
    1. Remove Zarges case from treatment couch; install Peli case with FPGA, cabling and Clatterbridge stacks.
    2. Check alignment of Peli case and DAQ hardware.
