SUS guardian

[Jamie, Arnaud]

Some SUS guardian updates from yesterday :

- all sus guardians have been successfully restarted after Jamie's modifications to SUS.py.

- Sheila thought it would be useful to add a saving feature for the alignment of TMSX with the itmx baffles PD1 and PD4, so align_save_burt was modified to add the option of saving "aligned to pd1" and "aligned to pd4" snap file.

Usage :

./align_save_burt -t alignedtopd1 TMSX
saving alignedtopd1 tmsx
 /opt/rtcds/userapps/release/sus/h1/burtfiles/h1sustmsx_alignedtopd1_offsets.snap

- This has been added to the OPTICALIGN medm screen of TMSX and TMSY as well as the IFO_ALIGN (cf TMSX_OPTICALIGN.png and IFO_ALIGN.png)

- Two states were created for SUS_TMSX and SUS_TMSY ALIGNED_TO_PD1 and ALIGNED_TO_PD4. They simply load the files saved by the align_save_burt script

- Edges between the different alignment positions were added for SUS_TMSX and SUS_TMSY to avoid going through the DAMPED state (which turns off the alignment offsets) during transition between different aligned states (cf TMSX_graph.png)


What need to be done/discussed :

-Turning off the alignment offsets seems to be enough to misalign the suspensions, so I'm wondering if we need to keep the misaligned state (except for PRM)

Also the link to guardian medm from IFO_ALIGN wasn't functionning because it was back with the full llo path (/ligo/apps/ubuntu12/guardian/bin/guardmedm) so I deleted the path again (cf alog 9733). I commited it to the svn for LLO to update
