Per WP#12649, the ASCIMC model was updated. Two test points were added to the IMC-WFS_B_{PIT,YAW}_OUT outputs that were then DQed to 16k, see attached screenshot of the new testpoints. These channels are being saved at the higher rate so they can be used as jitter witnesses, see attached screenshot of the channel list. The new channel names are "IMC-WFS_B_{PIT,YAW}_16K_OUT". Erik helped me set up these new test points, and Dave took care of the model and DAQ restart.
Before the model restart, I had checked the ASCIMC model and saw no SDF differences, so I assumed that we were good to go to restart the model. Here are two errors I made:
Once the restart had happened, and SDF reverted, the IMC came back very poorly aligned. Jeff and Tony had to move the IMC PZT offset by "hundreds of counts" to get us back to a good enough alignment to lock. After that, Jeff, Tony, and I proceeded to engage the IMC WFS, and turned up the WFS gain to 0.5 to help the loops converge faster. Once they converged, we took the IMC guardian to "MCWFS offloaded". Here, we made another mistake by forgetting to accept the PZT offsets in SDF, so when ISC_LOCK went through the "SDF revert" state, the offsets were set to some old value, which put the IMC back in a bad alignment. We repeated the process again, and this time remembered to save the new offsets in the SDF. I have attached a screenshot of this change.
