The CO2X laser was energized and aligned to the initial polarizer and AOM. The AOM was energized (the external RF input and power appear to work successfully) and set to maximum modulation depth. The AOM was aligned to the Bragg angle to maximize the diffraction efficiency (this has yet to be measured).

The cable connecting the voltage and current monitor channels from the laser power supply to the ADC had to be rewired as the I_MON and  GND pins were back to front.
