RF EOM driver for 9.1MHz Installed

(Keita Daniel)

We installed the amplitude stabilized RF EOM driver in the PSL. In the process the phase of the 9.1MHz modulation signal flipped by 179.3°. The measured RF power was 16.7dBm which requires H1:LSC-MOD_RF9_AM_RFSET to be set to 16.8dB.

The new controls/DAQ cables were used for both the 9.1MHz and 45.5MHz units. For the 9.1MHz unit we are using H1:ISC-430 (DB9/DAQ) and H1:ISC-432 (DB25/ctrl), whereas the 45.5MHz unit is using H1:ISC-431 (DAQ) and H1:ISC-433 (ctrl), respectively. The old cables have been pulled out of the PSL enclosure.

The RF readbacks of the 9.1MHz are currently shwoing around 18.3dBm. This is a calibration error which needs to be corrected in TwinCAT.
