Subject: Detector config changes 
I have changed the configuration of Housing 2 (BGO) to account for the detector being fixed (bond wires) and provide a "plug-and-play" housing ready to go for any future experiments.

The detector ordering is as follows:
Slot 1 - Design-I #14 
Slot 2 - Canberra DSSD 121813
Slot 3 - MSPad 15B
Slot 4 - Design-I #13
Slot 5 - Design-I #8
Slot 6 - Design-I #6
Slot 7 - EMPTY
Slot 8 - Design-I #3

Design-I #14 previously fell out of its frame during tests at TRIUMF. Its leakage current is comparable with other Design-I detectors but if real-world performance is different in future this may be the 
cause and the detector should be swapped out.

The housing is also a little warped around the slots for the screws to attach the detector to the end of the flange arm due to overtightening of those screws. This makes inserting a detector into slot 5 very 
difficult for the first ~1cm and should be done with considerable care.
