This lockloss seems to have the AOM driver monitor glitching right before the lockloss(ndscope), similar to what I had noticed in the two toher locklosses from this past weekend(81037).

In 81073 (Tuesday 05 November) Jason/Ryan S gave the ISS more range to stop it running out of range and going unstable. But on Tuesday evening, Oli saw this type of lockloss with again 81089. Not sure if we've seen it since then. 

The channel to check in the ~second before the lockloss is H1:PSL-ISS_AOM_DRIVER_MON_OUT_DQ, I added this to the lockloss trends shown by the 'lockloss' command line tool via /opt/rtcds/userapps/release/sys/h1/templates/locklossplots/psl_fss_imc.yaml

I checked all the "IMC" tagged locklosses since Wednesday 6th and didn't see any more of these.

This happened before we fixed the NPRO mode hopping problem, which we did on Wednesday, Nov 6th.  Not seeing any more of these locklosses since lends credence to our suspicion that the ISS was not responsible for these locklosses, the NPRO mode hopping was (NPRO mode hops cause the power output from the PMC to drop, the ISS sees this drop and does its job by lowering the diffracted power %, once the diffracted power % hits 0 the ISS unlocks and/or goes unstable).
