• open the motor spreadsheet
• pick a stage
  • ideally, you would add some load to the motor the mock up a read experiment
• connect it to the current smart/dumb motor channels wherever you will test (preferably a HXR hutch so that the command used below are easily available)
• reboot the IOC (using the "findPV" function of the iocmanager, the needed PV should be gotten from the label on the PPL and/or the hutch documentation
• locate a hutch python session (in XPP this should be done by typing "xpppython" in a terminal)
  • for now, the user motors on SB4 will make names like "userMotor_SB4_33" where the last number is the last two digits of the basePV the motor has been hooked up to
• open the expert GUI by using "x.userMotor_SB4_<xx>.expert_screen()"
• clock click on aux setting and move that screen next to the main screen.
• have a view of the stage (either by being next to it or by opening a webcam that has sight to where ever the motor is set up)
