I installed version2.0 of lock_loss_alert today. The new features are:
- User's alert window now has an ALWAYS button, which supercedes the window start-stop times
- System is a 3-state machine
- IFO Locked but not in OBSERVE is the new state
- Users can be alerted if H1 has not been in OBSERVE mode for a certain time period
- Lock-loss and observe-loss alert times are separate
The new OBSERVE alerts are to support remote IFO operations (e.g. operator delay due to bad weather) and to alert of commissioning activities.
