Ops Mid Shift Summary
The demod chassis was fixed. One of the chips was not fully seated. Keita updated the dark offsets. I tried locking but had trouble on PRMI. I ran through an initial alignment. After that I lost lock twice in a row on the transition to LOCK_DRMI_3F. I stopped at DRMI_ENGAGE_ASC and Keita checked the phases related to the fixed chassis. He said they looked fine, but noticed that H1:LSC-REFLAIR_B_RF27_I_OFFSET and H1:LSC-REFLAIR_B_RF135_Q_OFFSET had been changed. He determined that they must be changed in guardian and asked me to find out where. I believe I have found the relevant code in ISC_DRMI.py under ZERO_3F_OFFSETS, but I'm not sure how to address it. The commissioners are in a meeting.

class ZERO_3F_OFFSETS(GuardState):
    index = 110
    request = True
    @assert_mc_locked
    @assert_drmi_locked  
    #@nodes.checker() 
    def main(self):
        ezca.switch('LSC-SRCL1', 'OFFSET', 'OFF')
        # Zero the 3f offsets
        # [FIXME] either shorten the averaging or run the offsets in parallel,
        # or both average the current offsets and put them in.
        offsets = cdu.avg(5, ['LSC-REFLAIR_B_RF27_I_INMON',
                                   'LSC-REFLAIR_B_RF27_Q_INMON', 
                                   'LSC-REFLAIR_B_RF135_I_INMON',
                                   'LSC-REFLAIR_B_RF135_Q_INMON'],
                               )
        # write offsets
        ezca['LSC-REFLAIR_B_RF27_I_OFFSET'] = -round(offsets[0], 3)
        ezca['LSC-REFLAIR_B_RF27_Q_OFFSET'] = -round(offsets[1], 3)
        ezca['LSC-REFLAIR_B_RF135_I_OFFSET'] = -round(offsets[2], 3)
        ezca['LSC-REFLAIR_B_RF135_Q_OFFSET'] = -round(offsets[3], 3)

From my understanding the problem was not with the guardian code, but that the INMON signals that were being averaged were bad and there was no DRMI 3f signal. Stefan and Richard went out and disconnected/reconnected cables and it came back.
