Today's model modifications come in three parts:
(1) Independent Synchronized Oscillators for each isolation stage of the QUAD for calibration lines
(2) Updated CAL-CS model with better demodulation scheme that spits out coherence and uncertainty
(3) Changed all CAL-DELTAL and CAL-DARM channels to double precision and removed whitening
Below are all the details.
------------- Part (1)
In order push the PCAL vs. SUS actuation calibration line cancelling scheme for ER9/O2 forward (see T1600218 and T1600215), I've installed independent, longitudinal, synchronized oscillators in each of the UIM/L1, PUM/L2, TST/L3 stages of all of the QUAD models. See first attachment for screenshot of the QUAD OVERVIEW screen that now has the CAL_LINE block beneath every LOCK bank. Sadly, due to the recent split in QUAD library part models, I'd forgotten to add the needed EPICs channel for GPS synchronization to the ITMs. We'll install them tomorrow morning.
I've committed the following new models:
/opt/rtcds/userapps/release/sus/common/models/
Sending FOUROSEM_DAMPED_STAGE_MASTER_WITH_DAMP_MODE.mdl <-- Used in PUM/L2 stages
Sending FOUROSEM_STAGE_MASTER_OPLEV_TIDAL.mdl <-- Used in UIM/L1 stages
Sending QUAD_MASTER.mdl <-- Added EPICs record for GPS sync time on TST/L3 stage for ETMs
and accordingly modified MEDM screens:
M SUS_CUST_QUAD_ITM_OVERVIEW.adl
A + SUS_CUST_QUAD_ISTAGE_CAL_LINE.adl
D SUS_CUST_QUAD_L3_CAL_LINE.adl
M SUS_CUST_QUAD_OVERVIEW.adl
------------- Part (2)
In addition, as a continuation of the improvements to using those calibration lines to track changes in the DARM loop parameters, I've followed Joe's instructions (see LHO aLOG 26491) and updated the CAL-CS model to demodulate PCAL and DARM error signals at given frequencies and produce parameter estimates, coherence estimates, and even uncertainty estimates.
Darkhan will be working on commissioning the infrastructure with Joe.
------------- Part (3)
Finally, I've converted all of the calibrated DARM channels to double precision. *EXCEPT* for DELTAL_EXTERNAL, which is needed to display on the wall in the control room via DTT (which sadly, cannot yet handle double precision; see CDS Bug 1003).
As a result, and as per Joe's advice I've turned OFF all dewhitening filters that condition the following (new) channels stored in the frames:
H1:CAL-DARM_CTRL_WHITEN_OUT_DBL_DQ
H1:CAL-DARM_ERR_WHITEN_OUT_DBL_DQ
H1:CAL-DELTAL_CTRL_DBL_DQ
H1:CAL-DELTAL_CTRL_PUM_DBL_DQ
H1:CAL-DELTAL_CTRL_TST_DBL_DQ
H1:CAL-DELTAL_CTRL_UIM_DBL_DQ
H1:CAL-DELTAL_RESIDUAL_DBL_DQ
We need to investigate if we're now happy with the signal fidelity without whitening or if we just need to re-assess the whitening. Again, I've retained single precision on H1:CAL-DELTAL_EXTERNAL_DQ, so its whitening filter remains ON.
