Tilt T240 - Saturation test - ISI - BSC6

The isolation filters are ramped up with no DC offsets on the super sensor. Once the platform is isolated, it will be translated and rotated as desired. Tests were performed on ISI-BSC6 to evaluate the risk of saturation on the T240s when tilting the platform. Tests were performed with damping loops on every DOFs. Isolation filter (with BOOST to lock the platform to the ground at DC) was engaged in the RX direction with a blend at 750mHz. Then, the platform was tilted by 100nrad in the RX direction. Time series of all T240s signals were recorded during 600s and presented in attachment.
A 100nrad rotation in RX creates a 5000 count peak on the local inputs and a 22000nm/s velocity peak in the Y direction.
