Ops Shift Log: 06/15/2017, Day Shift 15:00 – 23:00 (08:00 - 16:00) Time - UTC (PT)

State of H1: Locked at NLN 28.9W, 57.9Mpc

Intent Bit: Observing

Support: N/A

Incoming Operator: Jim

 

Shift Summary: Ran A2L check script at the shift start. Both Pitch and Yaw are below the reference line. There were problems last night of low range, unruly RF45 noise, and gusty winds. The RF45 noise continues this morning.

Lost lock at beginning of the shift. Relocked without too much trouble. Robert has the IFO for commissioning work until 16:30 (09:30).

Back to Observing. Commissioning work finished for now.

Sheila turned off sensor correction at End-Y because the BRS was damping due to high winds.

After the BRS damping settled down changed the ISI_CONFIG state back to WINDY.
