TITLE: 12/10 Day Shift: 16:00-00:00 UTC (08:00-16:00 PST), all times posted in UTC
STATE of H1: Commissioning
INCOMING OPERATOR: None
SHIFT SUMMARY:
Able to get some time/experience with locking (notes below). There were some model changes for TCS & Guardian (+ DAQ restart) to aid with overnight AMD measurements.
My Operator Locking Notes Today:
- DRMI locking has been taking ~5min+ to lock. If takes longer, lock PRMI (tweak BS & PRM).
- Take to DRMI_LOCKED_CHECK_ASC.
- Good signs to look for when locking: POP18 & RF90 large flashes on StripTool & ASAIR video has strong TEM00 flashes.
- Can touch SRM while locking if its taking a while...this worked for me once
- For a locked DRMI:
- Video: ASAIR should be symmetric
- StripTool: POP18 (pink) & RF90 (green) should be flat & maximized.
- If alignment needed, move SRM & PRM (Do this at CHECK_AS_SHUTTERS)
- Have been taking to PREP_ASC_FOR_FULL_IFO. If ASC signals look ok, then go to ENGAGE_DC_VIOLINS
