      Description

      It would be useful to note mechanical changes which could affect data reduction. The obvious parts are the FPA motors, the slit hexapod, and the red exchange mechanism.

      The proposed mechanism is to have per-SM counters which are incremented when moves are made. Some listener, in the icc or alerts actors, will listen to keywords and will increment an opdb table. The value in that table will be added to the headers so that DRP can know whether exposures were taken with possibly different configurations.

      FPA moves and the red exchange mechanism affect only a single camera, so perhaps there should be 12 counters. We do not expect to move FPAs very often, but the rexm will be.
