Following the discussion we had on slack with @jose-bermejo, I went ahead and updated the line references and widened the warning and error thresholds. Tests on two exposures from 20240706 look fine: https://data.desi.lbl.gov/desi/users/sybenzvi/nightwatch/20240706/exposures.html
I'll do a bit more cleanup and then merge this change.
Observers have been reporting Arc spectro errors every night, from the QA Status "spectro" column of the exposure list per night, e.g. https://nightwatch.desi.lbl.gov/20240630/exposures.html . These errors appear to be coming from individual camera line measurements that are slightly out of normal.
I think the primary purpose of these checks is to see if a lamp is burned out or if there is major contamination. As such, the warning/error thresholds could be significantly expanded to avoid false positives.
