Inter Parameter file Update

[Owen Arnold]

Email from Max.

7. I found a mistake in the INTER IDF, which is probably my fault: the
positions of slits 1 and 2 are wrong. They should be 14.801 and 16.724
(according to the last survey):


  <component type="slit" name="slit1">
    <location z="14.801"/>
     <!-- This log file stores the vertical opening of slit -->
    <parameter name="vertical gap">
      <logfile id="S1_VG" extract-single-value-as="last_value" />
    </parameter>
    <parameter name="y">
      <logfile id="S1_VG" eq="-value*0.001/2.0"
extract-single-value-as="last_value" />
    </parameter>

    <parameter name="y2">
      <logfile id="S1_VG" eq="0.3+value*0.001/2.0"
extract-single-value-as="last_value" />
    </parameter>
    <location z="15.250" y="0.3"/>
    </component>

  <component type="slit" name="slit2">
    <location z="16.724"/>
    <!-- This log file stores the vertical opening of this. Note this
     slit can also be translated in the z. However this info not stored
     in log file since it is not used in the data analysis process. -->
    <parameter name="vertical gap">
      <logfile id="S2_VG" extract-single-value-as="last_value" />
    </parameter>
  </component>

I haven't had time to fix this yet, but it should make any incremental patch release made after the major 3.1 release!!

refs #9040. INTER IDF updated.

Only the slit z positions have been updated. Everything else should be the same.

Tester. The following python script shows that the new slit positions are being utilised. The script should print out the z-positions listed in the description.

import os
instrument_dir = config['instrumentDefinition.directory']
ws = LoadEmptyInstrument(Filename=os.path.join(instrument_dir, "INTER_Definition.xml"))
instrument = ws.getInstrument()
slit1 = instrument.getComponentByName("slit1")
print slit1.getPos().getZ()
slit2 = instrument.getComponentByName("slit2")
print slit2.getPos().getZ()

The commit in comment:10 is the cherry-picked one into the patch release branch.
