TITLE: 07/27 Eve Shift: 23:00-07:00 UTC (16:00-00:00 PST), all times posted in UTC
STATE of H1: Commissioning
INCOMING OPERATOR: None
SHIFT SUMMARY: Finished initial alignment at beginning of shift. Other than a pause to let Keita and Evan work on POPX, we have been locking well all night.
LOG:
23:15 Kyle to EY VEA
23:41 Kyle back
Keita and Evan to LVEA POP X work
NOTE FOR OPERATORS: At one point, I attempted to do a quick MICH_DARK alignment after a lockloss since the AS spot looked bad. I set ISC_LOCK directly to INITIAL_ALIGNMENT, which caused the IMC to lose lock. It would not relock and while looking for the culprit, I found a large input value going to MC2 L3 LOCK bank. Jenne and I could not find the source of the input, and Jenne decided to put ISC_LOCK into DOWN. This immediately fixed the issue and the IMC locked back up. TAKE AWAY: Always go through DOWN in ISC_LOCK when going back to do any initial alignement work.
