The MEC experiments scheduled for Run 24 (March 2025 - July 2025) are in non-standard configurations and (mostly) require significant work on motorization and its attendant parameter management. This confluence page will capture the precise control system requirements for each experiment and to create a proposed work plan for additional support external to the MEC team, e.g.f rom ECS Field Engineering. 

The following bullet points are extracted from notes of the 23 January 2025 ECS Priorization meeting between Peregrine McGehee and Eric Galtier.
