(Corey, Rick)
Rick and the PSL crew have a procedure for Operators to run through for assessing the performance of the PSL via the DBB (Diagnostic BreaBoard). This is something which should be done on a weekly basis. (takes roughly about an hour). The procedure shows how one runs the measurements and it also generates plots one should post in the alog. Today, we went through the procedure and made a few notes. We were not able to run all the measurements since the FSS was down at the time.
The four DBB measurements we ran were:
- RPN (Relative Power Noise)
- PNT (Pointing Noise)
- MSC (Mode Scan....Beam Quality Measurement)
We did not get to run the FRQ (Frequency Noise Measurement), since the FSS was being worked on.
Attached are the measurements we ran (they are located at: /ligo/lho/data/psl/psl_noisereports/2014-06-17)
Will post an Operator Procedure for this soon!
