TITLE: 08/30 Day Shift: 15:00-23:00 UTC (08:00-16:00 PST), all times posted in UTC
STATE of H1: Observing at 149Mpc
INCOMING OPERATOR: Ryan S
SHIFT SUMMARY:
Lock#1:
Lockloss at 16:18UTC
The squeezer kept losing lock all morning, and the ISS saturated.
Lock#2:
After some investigation while we were relocking it was found that FC1 was having troubles, Fil power cycled the chassis and then swapped the coil driver and satellite box for a spare. But none of these actions were successful to fix the issue.
We required NLN at 17:52, but we stayed out of Observing while the FC1 investigation/work was ongoing. It was narrowed down to an issue with the T3 BOSEM on FC1. An old (2011) ADC card ended up being swapped for a new one (2021) which was the root of issue! Fil swapped back the original coil drivers and satellite box. Alog72558 documenting the process
I took a broadband and simulines calibration measurement during the investigation time, then a second one later on in the afternoon.
Back into Observing at 22:46UTC after squeezer commissioning and MICHFF testing.
