TITLE: 03/21 Eve Shift: 23:00-07:00 UTC (16:00-00:00 PST), all times posted in UTC
STATE of H1: Aligning
INCOMING OPERATOR: None
SHIFT SUMMARY:

H1's been having issues staying locked for more than 45-90 minutes in the last day.  Acquisition is decent, although most lock attempts I have proactively went to CHECKMICHFRINGES + PRMI.  LOCK CLOCK is not working. Automatic Operation appeared to not work once, but for other couple of attempts it worked.
LOG:

•  
• 2256-2330 Initial alignment
• 2313 Run down X+Y arms (gabriele)
• 2329 End of SHG optics lab work (julian)
• 2330-0010 Lock#1:  Nice & straightforward lock.  For the last 45min Evan had some MICH excitations, and Naoki did some SQZ work.
  • 0010-0055 NLN, but another short lock similar to what (4) other locks during the day.  :-/
• 0156 Observing  (NLN at 0152)--Automatic Operation did NOT take H1 to Observing for some reason.
  • 0320 Lockloss with an ITMx SEI ISI Watchdog trip via the CPS'.
• 0323-0340 Lock#2:  Lockloss during PRMI after Check Mich Fringes
• 0341-0424 Lock #3:  Went directly to Check Mich Fringes and then PRMI.
• 0428-0559 OBSERVING (NLN @ 0424) via Automatic Operation (woo woo!)
• 0600-0605 Lock #4:  Lockloss at LOCKING ALS.  X-arm was harder to offload, but eventually did (with out flashes)
• 0606-0653 Lock#4:  Xarm clearly less stable than Y.  But it gets there (offloaded) within 2min this time.  Gave DRMI 3min to lock and then moved to CHECK MICH FRINGES + PRMI & then DRMI locked within 2min.  
• 0657 Back to Observing and placed in Auto Ops.
