00:00 IFO not locked. Jim said it lost lock twice at BOUNCE_VIOLIN_MODE_DAMPING. And lost lock again at ANALOG_CARM when I came.

          Knowing that it fails to grab lock repeatedly, I approach all the Guardian state with caution (wait until the spectrum becomes settle before requesting the next state)

01:13 Lock lost at REFL_TRANS. I brought everything down, readjust SR2, PR2, PR3, BS, and IM4. Ended up took me a while because I messed up the alignment.

         Couldn't get ASC-C_COMM_A_DEMOD_RFMON to reach 5 counts. I touched PR3 all I could. Any other optics I could touch to improve this?

2:18 4.7 Earthquake in Japan - no WD tripped.

4:00 Lock loss at LOCK_DRMI_1F

4:10 Trouble locking ALS-X

5:00 Kristina to the wood shop.

        The ifo still tries to lock DRMI.

5:10 Kristina back.

6:16 Still not grabing DRMI lock. Evan suggested bad BS alignment as AS air momentary locked at 10 mode. I couldn't get it to lock just by adjusting the BS so I redid the initial alignment. The earthquake earlier might have thrown the optics off.

6:50 Lock loss at REFL_TRANS.

7:19 Lock loss at REFL_TRANS AGAIN. I waited until AS90 and POP18 became stable before requesting the state.

7:31 Stopping at DRMI_LOCK. Waiting for the 6.0 earthquake in Chile to pass (it didn't affect us - no WD tripped at least).

8:06 Hugh came to find ITMY Optlev damping has been turned off. This could have been the cause of repeated lock losses through out the night. Next time I'll be sure to check SDF before even touching the interferometer....

       Evan touched PRM to bring up POP18 (and AS90) before requesting RESONANCE. Maybe helped with the lock loss at REFL_TRANS?

       The ifo is now locking. Handling the ifo off to Jeff B.
