useism slowly increasing over last day & winds picked up at the beginning of the shift (w/ gusts just under 40mph).

Locking Note:  wait for a long time at Power_30W for ADS to converge to the level of the noise floor

LOG:

• 23:11 H1 at NOMINAL_LOW_NOISE
• 0:23  Equipment set-up in CER (Philippe) 
  • 0:49 Another CER incursion
• 0:30 - 0:32 Kyle's motorcycle
• 0:57 Lockloss (Wind?  High useism?)
  • Tweaked up ALSy via ETMy
  • PRMI was really low, but eventually tweaked up PRM & BS to optimize alignment (DRMI locked fast).
  • Moving to around POWER_30W and going slow due to needing dither line convergence.  (stayed here for about 14min)
  • Paused at LOWNOISE_ASC for about (3min)
  • 1:57 NLN
• 0:59 TCS model restart (Danny)
• 1:00 HAM6 shaker install (Robert & Philippe)
• 2:37 Lockloss
  • 2:39 Locking.  PRMI looked good, so immediately moved on....but LSC signals looked noisy & broke at DARM_to_RF.
• 5:57 H1CALCS had Timing fault.  Cleared it via a Diag Reset.
• 5:57 Back to NOMINAL_LOW_NOISE; had discussion; worked on clearing SDFs (attached is a screenshot of the diffs we had before going to OBSERVE).
  • 6:15 - 6:56 In this time we toggled between COMMISSIONING & OBSERVING while we addressed the TCS guardian which had a channel changing every few seconds.
• 6:22 OBSERVING (with Danny performing approved TCS 
• 6:35 bumped out again!  We are trying to figure out if it is Violin Mode Damping or slow control channels for the Squeezer (Georgia took a snap).
• 6:56 OBSERVING and I'm going to slip out while I can!
