Flow 4: Update Control Loop by Reconfiguring TCA

...

After the control loop is reconfigured, we test that the changes have taken effect.  This is done by running the control loop again.  For example, if the threshold value was increased, we would initiate an event with the old threshold value, and see that the signature is no longer produced.
