State of H1: locking DRMI but cannot engage DRMI ASC
Commissioners: Sheila, Terra, Daniel
Activities:
-
locked early on, work by commissioners
-
odd lock loss - see Sheila's alog
-
relocked - lockloss due to commissioning
-
locked DRMI multiple times, and multiple times could not survive DRMI ASC
Notes from Sheila:
-
alignment was good in the 4 hour lock, and did relock, but earlier she mentioned that alignment might need help to relock, since she manually moved optics in the lock
-
would like a2l run after 1-1.5 hours in lock
-
in alog 31628 she asked for a measurement on lock loss, but when she left we both thought H1 would relock and go back to NLN easliy, so I believe she was wanting this measurement with the alignment we had in the last NLN lock
-
any trouble with PR3_REFL_WFS breaking lock, skip it by going to Manual in Noise Tunings and go straight to NLN
Notes from Terra:
-
zero PI modes in DC Readout, then damp later if they ring up
My damping of PIs:
-
Mode 26:
-
1:24 gain = 7000
-
1:50 gain = 0
-
2:04 gain = 7000
-
2:15 gain = 0
-
2:36:30 gain = 7000
-
2:42:30 gain = 0
-
3:15:58 gain = 7000
-
3:28:02 gain = 0
-
4:32:00 gain = 7000
-
4:42:20 gain = 0
-
4:47:25 gain = 7000
Correction: Terra's alog 31593 instructs us to zero modes 3 and 26 to zero:
"Whoever is in the chair next when we have to relock (days from now I'm sure...), please:
• Stop at DC Readout. Run a2l. Turn PI Mode 3 & 26 gain to zero. Record time in alog when you put gains to zero.
• Continue up as normal."
