21:42 UTC lockloss, we were starting to shake from a 5.6 from El Salvador but it looks to be another ASC_Y / TMSX_Y oscillation lockloss.

We followed the setup in 80451 and additionally I plugged BNC's inside SQZT7 to directly connect t-ed off OPO_IR_PD and OPO_TRANS PDs to the table feed-through, as OPO REFL "test in" and "test out", see photo. This let us do all the work in laser safe and have been left plugged in.
We started in the second leftmost spot from the right (85589, 85488, 85297), had been there since late June but the spot degraded quickly and the green power used to achieve 80uW from OPO was now ~30mW which is close to the max available.
We first checked where we were by going to the left edge of the crystal and then returned to the leftmost spot.
Once there we measured NLG, moved the crystal in steps on 100 counts, re-optimized OPO temperature and measured NLG, similar to 85589. Once we got to a NLG above 15 with 80uW of OPO TRANS, we stopped. The required green power used to achieve 80uW was now halved from 30mW to 15mW, much better. We started witht the OPO temps et to 31.2deg and ended at 32.3deg, this is closer to where we were operating 3 years ago, photo.

As the next step in fine-tuning the SR3 Y estimator, we needed to retake the SUSPOINT to M1 measurements as well as OLTFs so they could be used to calculate the filter modules for the suspoint and drive estimators. I took those measurements today.
General setup:
- in HEALTH_CHECK (but damping back on)
- damping for Y changed from -0.5 to -0.1
- OSEMINF gains and DAMP FM7 turned on (and left on afterwards 86070)
SUSPOINT to M1:
Data for those measurements can be found in /ligo/svncommon/SusSVN/sus/trunk/HLTS/H1/SR3/Common/Data/2025-07-29_1730_H1ISIHAM5_ST1_WhiteNoise_SR3SusPoint_{L,T,V,R,P,Y}_0p02to50Hz.xml r12492
M1 to M1 (OLTFs):
After this, the next steps are to take regular transfer functions with the above setup of Y having -0.1 damping
That data is in /ligo/svncommon/SusSVN/sus/trunk/HLTS/H1/SR3/SAGM1/Data/2025-07-29_1830_H1SUSSR3_M1_WhiteNoise_{L,T,V,R,P,Y}_0p02to50Hz_OpenLoopGainTF.xml r12493
Reminder that these open loop transfer functions were taken with the damping Y gain of -0.1, so they should not be taken as 'nominal' OLTFs.
The M1 to M1 TFs were supposed to be regular TFs so here is the alog for those: 86202
Shivaraj Kandhasam posted in MatterMost that the EY BRS signal looked off, and had been since last Tuesday (July 22). I talked to Jim about this and indeed the velocity of the BRS was consistently very high. Jim said that it looked like it needed to grab new frames for the C code calculations. Immediately after Jim reset this, by logging into the BRS computer and clicking the "Grab New Frames" button on the GUI, the velocity slowed down and it was quickly brought back to a normal realm.
I trended this back and it's happened a few times, most recently from May 21-June 5. To catch this next time it happens again, I've done two things:
We previoiusly swapped the satamp boxes for TMSX M1 F1/F2/F3/LF (85980), and I had just put in the generic 5.31:0.0969 zp compensation filters in at the time since the 'best possible' filters for that satamp were under the optic name of the OMC in the txt files. Now that we've decided that we're going to be keeping this satamp box in, we have fixed the naming in the txt files and so I was able to update the compensation filters to be the 'best possible' for each satamp channel (output). These were loaded in.
As part of the estimator work, we measured and calculated OSEMINF gains (85907) and compensating gain filter modules for the DAMP bank (86026). We believe these new values to be correct, so we have gone ahead and permanently updated the OSEMINF gains as well as turned on the compensating gains in FM7 in the DAMP filter bank for SR3.
This update means that there will be a difference in the apparent location of the DAMP INs, but this is just because of the change in the OSEMINF gains. These gains were changed (along with the compensating gains filter modules turned on) at 2025-07-29 16:58 UTC. They were put into SDF safe and will be saved in OBSERVE once we get there.
| OSEM | Old OSEMINF gain | New OSEMINF gain |
| T1 | 1.478 | 3.213 |
| T2 | 0.942 | 1.517 |
| T3 | 0.952 | 1.494 |
| LF | 1.302 | 1.733 |
| RT | 1.087 | 1.494 |
| SD | 1.290 | 1.793 |
The compensation gains put in in the DAMP filter bank are in FM7, and they are the following:
L: 0.740
T: 0.732
V: 0.548
R: 0.550
P: 0.628
Y: 0.757

One section of the work platform was installed on the -X side of BSC2 this morning.
LVEA has been swept.
Closes WP 12719. Patrick T., Gerardo M., Dave B. "Update the h0vacly Beckhoff TwinCAT 3 system manager and PLC code to add the IPFCC6 and IPFCC8 filter cavity tube ion pumps and the PTCC7 filter cavity tube gauge. Will require a restart of the PLC and IOC. Will require a DAQ restart." This has been completed. The code on h0vacly is now at commit 6a6e7bc55cb87bc9188312eee1c9a8129bdf7946. No issues. Dave did a burt restore. A DAQ restart is pending.
Trying to narrow down why TMS x is involved in lock losses we have replaced the TMS coil driver that works on F1,2,3 and LF. Chassis S1102670 was replaced with S1102666. The operator returned the system to damping. This is a wait and see test.
Tue Jul 29 10:08:48 2025 INFO: Fill completed in 8min 44secs
After Richard swapped the TMSX coil driver chassis I took a look at the raw OSEM counts for the TMSX (F1, F2, F3, LF) comparing to a time earlier when TMSX and ISC_LOCK were both in the same state (ALIGNED, DOWN). I see that LFs counts are ~2500 counts lower post swap. I'm not sure if there are any other checks to run.
The dolphin IX switch at EX had broken management interface which prevented fencing of front end from the dolphin network for safe reboots.
I installed a new switch. As part of the process, h1cdsrfm was turned off to avoid crashing it and in turn crashing CS and EY dolphin networks.
When I turned h1cdsrfm back on, the cdsrfm port on the switch was already enabled, which led to timing glitches on h1susex and h1iscex. This could have been prevented by re-fencing h1cdsrfm after the new switch was turned on.
I restarted the models on h1susex and h1iscex. A few minutes later, h1susex crashed in the dolphin driver and had to be rebooted. The crash was reminiscent of several susex (plus all of ey) crashes related to restarts of dis_networkmgr on the bootserver. See 67389 for one example.
Switch sn ISX600-HN-000224 was replaces with ISX600-HN-000258.

QUICK SUMMARY:
When the SUS_CHARGE was finishing up and SWAPPING_BACK_TO_ETMX ETMX L3 started to constantly saturate and there was a big line on DARM at ~150. This behavior persisted even after the GRD was done and went back to waiting. (tagging SUS).
15:02 UTC I induced a lockloss at by flipping the polarity of H1:IMC-REFL_SERVO_IN1POL, to break the lock and to stop the EX saturations.
I took a look at why there were saturations, and I think it's because of our changes yesterday. When the measurement finished, the ETMX bias was reverted to the new value that Sheila and I used yesterday, but the L3 drivealign gain was set to the old value of 198 instead of the new value of 88. I looked at the script and I don't understand exactly how that happened since it appears that it pulls the values right from LSCparams, but the ndscope I attached shows this is what happened.
I think this was due to the fact that the SUS_CHARGE GRD was not reloaded after lscparams was changed, I've reloaded the GRD.

In an effort to find and solve the ASC excursion locklosses that seem to be linked to TMSX (85973), Fil swapped out the satellite amplifier that he had installed last Tuesday (85770) that had serial number S1100150 with another modified satamp that he had on hand, S1100122 (originally meant for OMC T1 T2 T3 LF). We are hoping this fixes the problem. Since this is partially for testing and since we originally were planning to use this satellite amplifier for the OMC, for now I've replaced the OSEMINF compensation filters for TMSX (which had the specific tuned filters) with the generic 5.31:0.0969 zp filters. We can update these later when we figure out which satamp will be staying there. I've loaded these filters in and brought TMSX back.
taken out: S1100150
put in: S1100122 (originally meant for OMC T1 T2 T3 LF)

Once the new satamps were installed, I ran the script satampswap_bestpossible_filterupdate_ECR_E2400330.py to update the compensation filters for these suspensions. These 'best possible' compensation gains come from the tests Jeff did on each satamp before installation, which are found in /ligo/svncommon/SusSVN/sus/trunk/electronicstesting/lho_electronics_testing/satamp/ECR_E2400330/Results/.
My input and the corresponding output is below:

Ivey used the ISO calibration measurements that I took earlier (85906) to calculate what the OSEMINF gains should be on SR3 (85907), and this script also calculates what it thinks the compensation gain in the DAMP filter bank should be.
The next step is to use OLG TFs to measure what values we would use in the DAMP filter bank to compensate for the change in OSEMINF gains, and we can compare them to the calculated values to see how close they are.
I took two sets of OLG measurements for SR3:
- a set with the nominal OSEMINF gains
T1: 1.478
T2: 0.942
T3: 0.952
LF: 1.302
RT: 1.087
SD: 1.290
- a set with the OSEMINF gains changed to the values in 85907
T1: 3.213
T2: 1.517
T3: 1.494
LF: 1.733
RT: 1.494
SD: 1.793
Measurement settings:
- SR3 in HEALTH_CHECK but with damping loops on
- SR3 damping nominal (all -0.5)
- HAM5 in ISOLATED
Nominal gain set:
/ligo/svncommon/SusSVN/sus/trunk/HLTS/H1/SR3/SAGM1/Data/2025-07-22_1700_H1SUSSR3_M1_WhiteNoise_{L,T,V,R,P,Y}_0p02to50Hz_OpenLoopGainTF.xml r12478
New gain set:
/ligo/svncommon/SusSVN/sus/trunk/HLTS/H1/SR3/SAGM1/Data/2025-07-22_1800_H1SUSSR3_M1_WhiteNoise_{L,T,V,R,P,Y}_0p02to50Hz_OpenLoopGainTF.xml r12478
Once I had taken these measurements, I exported txt files for each dof's OLG and used one of my scripts, /ligo/svncommon/SusSVN/sus/trunk/HLTS/Common/MatlabTools/divide_traces_tfs.m to plot the OLG for each dof to compare the traces between OSEMINF gain differences and then divide the traces and grab an average of that, which will be the compensation gain put in as a filter in the DAMP filter bank (plots). The values I got for the compensation gains are below:
L: 0.740
T: 0.732
V: 0.548
R: 0.550
P: 0.628
Y: 0.757
| DOF | OLTF measured and calculated DAMP Compensation gains | ISO Calibration measurement calculated compensation gains (85907) | Percent difference (%) |
| L | 0.740 | 0.740 | 0.0 |
| T | 0.732 | 0.719 | 1.8 |
| V | 0.548 | 0.545 | 0.5 |
| R | 0.550 | 0.545 | 0.9 |
| P | 0.628 | 0.629 | 0.2 |
| Y | 0.757 | 0.740 | 2.3 |
These are pretty similar to what my script had found them to be last time before the satamp swap (85288), as well as being very similar to the values that Ivey's script had calculated.
Maybe the accuracy from Ivey's script means that in the future we don't need to run the double sets of OLG transfer functions and can jsut use the values that the script gives.
The compensation gains have been loaded into the SR3 DAMP filter bank in FM7 as well as being updated in the estimator damp banks for P and Y. They have been loaded in but of course, are currrently left off for nominal operations since the OSEMINF gains haven't been updated yet
The OSEMINF gains and these new DAMP compensating gains have been turned on together: 86070
