SR2 vs sliders, clipping on SR3 optical lever

Alena Anayeva has been working on some zeemax modeling to help us understand what happened when our output arm seems to have changed on April 22/23rd. 

She has been using shifts in alignment based on slider numbers as reported in 77388, but the shifts that this is giving her are too large. 

This is a quick look at the slider calibrations.  There is a discrepancy for SR2, the slider calibration agrees with the M2+M3 osems, M1 osems are reporting a 62% smaller shift. For SR3, the sliders and osems agree to within 10%.

After the large shift we have been falling off the SR3 optical lever, so that is not a useful comparison.
