TITLE: 03/15 Day Shift: 15:00-23:00 UTC (08:00-16:00 PST), all times posted in UTC
STATE of H1: Observing at 118Mpc
INCOMING OPERATOR: Cheryl
SHIFT SUMMARY: Long lock acquisition- I expect that the optics were quite misaligned as we have had a pretty long lock strength and some dramatic temperature changes.
LOG:

• 17:53 Lockloss see alog alog 55601 for details
  • ALS_Y arm started with no light on it and went into fault after I adjusted sliders to lock the y-arm as the QPDs weren't centered.

• 21:45 Initial alignment started
• 21:53 FSS looses lock during initial alignment, but relocked itself within 70s. YAY!
