Unshuttered SPI, Reset Phase Unwrapping Algo, Restored QPDA SEG OFFSETS (Recovery from DARK NOISE configuration)
J. Kissel

Jennie had shuttered the SPI yesterday as a part of further QPDA dark noise (LHO:91791). I 
    - unshuttered it this morning, 
    - restored the dark offsets in the QPDA SEG banks (rather than the fake signal offsets) and 
    - reset the phase unwrapping algorithm in the IFO signal chain. 
Power monitoring came back to (MEAS, REF) = (13.6,10.4) [V], which (from memory) is typical.
QPD centering came back to (QPDA; SUM, P, Y -- QPDB; SUM, P, Y) = (25.3 , 0.014 , 0.020 ; 30.0 , -0.016, -0.017)

Restoration complete by 2026-09-04 16:08:00 UTC.
