Setting ODC EPICS Descriptive Bit Strings
Ryan Fisher, Stefan Ballmer

We have set the EPICS records for the labels that describe the ODC bits for the SUS and ISI models currently running in H1.*  The labels provide a short description of what every bit in each ODC channel represents, for each ODC channel.  The higher order bits in the ODC channels that do not have labels are currently unused, but may be used in the future.

These records were set using scripts located in /ligo/home/ryan.fisher, and attached to this entry.  

* Excluding H1:SUS-TMSY_ODC_BIT* for now.

I have now also set all of the EPICS strings that describe the bits in the ODC channels for the HPI models.  The script is attached.

I have now also set all of the EPICS strings that describe the bits in the ODC channels for the TMSY model.  The script is attached.

Note that there is a small bug in the models for these channels that currently mislabels bit4 as bit6: 
H1:SUS-TMSY_ODC_BIT6
(should be H1:SUS-TMSY_ODC_BIT4)

We will go through the process of changing this small bug in the corresponding Simulink model library part, after emailing cds_announce and sus team members.

I added scripts for setting the ODC bit labels and masks in /opt/rtcds/userapps/release/cds/h1/scripts

h1setODCbitmask:    Set ODC bit masks for HPI, ISI and SUS
h1setODCbitstrings: Set ODC bit labels for HPI, ISI and SUS

Correction to scripts included above: 

The ISI-HAM ODC channels should only have 5 bits, and should not be part of the other ISI channel script.  The corrected scripts are attached, and the correct scripts are in the following location on llocds.ligo-wa.caltech.edu:

/ligo/home/ryan.fisher/EPICS_Scripts

I corrected a small typo (M2 where it should have been M1) in SUS_OMC_Labels.txt for this log book entry only.  The scripts in /ligo/home/ryan.fisher were corrected approximately a month ago.  The corrected txt file is attached.
