It is known that if the little test-masses in the STS-2s get too far from center, then noise of the instrument gets worse. They should all be in the -2V -> +2V range, and one of the End-Y masses might be at -8 V. Because we are fortunate, Ben Abbott attached the mass-location-monitor to our ADCs. see pg 11 of the BSC SEI system wiring schematic https://dcc.ligo.org/LIGO-D0901301 The UVW/ mass positions are being send to ADC 3, chns 20, 21, 22 (for nums 0-31) Because we are knuckleheads, we do not seem to be monitoring these channels. An integration issue has been filed: https://services.ligo-wa.caltech.edu/integrationissues/show_bug.cgi?id=1148 Because we are committed to excellence, all the inputs from the ADC are saved as EPICS records. I think that the epics channels for the end station are H1:IOP-SEI_EY_MADC3_EPICS_CH20 H1:IOP-SEI_EY_MADC3_EPICS_CH21 H1:IOP-SEI_EY_MADC3_EPICS_CH22 the other STSs should be at - end X - H1:IOP-SEI_EX_MADC3_EPICS_CH20 H1:IOP-SEI_EX_MADC3_EPICS_CH21 H1:IOP-SEI_EX_MADC3_EPICS_CH22 and for the 3 in the corner station S1:IOP-SEI_[B1|B2|B3]_MADC3_EPICS_CH[20|21|22] (or maybe it is B6, but I don't think so) I looked at the channels for End Y, and it seems that the STS-2 at End Y needs re-centering. It would be smart to 1) watch the monitor channels when you mash the re-center button. If they are the right channels, it will be very clear. 2) check the other sensors, too.
