DAC DuoTone Signal Turned ON for SUS ETMX, SUS ETMY, and LSC0; Notes on Channel Names in Timing System, and its relation to Calibration
J. Kissel

In order to facilitate studies of the timing systems inside the "important" (i.e. those involved in the DARM loop) IO chassis, I've turned ON the DAC DuoTone Enable switches for the h1susex, h1susey, and h1lsc0 front end computers, i.e. 
EX SUS Front End (h1susex) = H1:FEC-87_DUOTONE_TIME_DAC 
EY SUS Front End (h1susey) = H1:FEC-97_DUOTONE_TIME_DAC
OMC DCPD's Front End (h1lsc0) = H1:FEC-7_DUOTONE_TIME_DAC
which, because all of the 32nd and 31st channels on these chassis' ADC0s are otherwise empty should now pipe the DAC0's DuoTone signal back into ADC0.
Recall that the 32nd ADC0 channel on each front end is that ADC's DuoTone signal it has received from the timing slave also internal to the I/O chassis, e.g. 
H1:IOP-SUS_EX_ADC_DT_OUT_DQ
H1:IOP-SUS_EY_ADC_DT_OUT_DQ
H1:IOP-LSC0_ADC_DT_OUT_DQ
and the 31st ADC0 channel (if the H1:FEC-${DCUID}_DACDT_ENABLE button is ON) is DAC0's DuoTone, e.g. 
H1:IOP-SUS_EX_DAC_DT_OUT_DQ
H1:IOP-SUS_EY_DAC_DT_OUT_DQ
H1:IOP-LSC0_DAC_DT_OUT_DQ
should contain some useful timing diagnostics. Note, the inherent assumption in the system is that if one ADC and one DAC is well synchronized to the timing slave, then all DAC and ADCs in the IO chassis are well synchronized.

Unclear whether we'll ever need to turn these off, so they should probably go into the IOP model's SDF system when someone's more awake than I am right now.

Also -- just because I can't think of a better place to put them at the moment since there're so many open questions, I attach my notes on further data-mining-type Timing System studies that can be done now that Jim has set of the auxiliary timing system check (see LHO aLOG 18384).

This morning I also turned on the end-station ISC front ends (which host PCAL; in fact EX was already turned on -- dunno for how long it's been so, but that's good!).

ISC EX Computer: H1:FEC-83_DUOTONE_TIME_DAC
ISC EY Computer: H1:FEC-93_DUOTONE_TIME_DAC

ADC0 timing monitor Channels for these front ends:
H1:IOP-ISC-EX_ADC_DT_OUT_DQ
H1:IOP-ISC-EY_ADC_DT_OUT_DQ

DAC0 timing monitor Channels for these front ends:
H1:IOP-ISC-EX_DAC_DT_OUT_DQ
H1:IOP-ISC-EY_DAC_DT_OUT_DQ
