Ops Shift Log: 07/09/2019, Day Shift 15:00 – 23:00 (08:00 - 16:00) Time - UTC (PT)

State of H1: Locked at NLN

Intent Bit: Commissioning

Support: Sheila

Incoming Operator: TJ

Shift Summary: After the maintenance window, tried relocking the IFO. Had problems in the initial stages and lost lock at FIND_IR. Ran an Initial Alignment using the automated process. This went very smoothly, as Sheila and I had realigned ALS by hand. After the initial alignment, relocked the IFO on the first attempt, without operator intervention. Relocked at NLN and turned over to Commissioning.

 

   Had a GRB Alter, which was ignored because the Trigger Duration was 4.096
