As a continuation from yesterday's work on getting the new noise estimators up and running for PR3 and SR3, we've copied over the filters used in the normal M1 damping for PR3 and SR3, H1:SUS-{PR3,SR3}_M1_DAMP_{P,Y}, for Pitch and Yaw over to new filter banks: H1:SUS-{PR3,SR3}_M1_{PIT,YAW}_DAMP_OSEM and H1:SUS-{PR3,SR3}_M1_{PIT,YAW}_DAMP_EST. These filter banks are found in the Pitch Estim and Yaw Estim screens under OSEM Damper and Estim Damper. The filters were copied over with a script that made sure that it was copying the filters that corresponded to the correct suspension and DOF (some of the filters differ between the suspensions as well as between DOF on the same suspension)..
The filters have all been loaded in but are currently off. The gains on these filter banks are currently set to 0.
I am attaching the script that I used to copy over these filters.
J. Kissel ECR E2400083 IIET 30642 WP 12453 We're getting started on installing the PSL Pick-off path for the future SPI, and we want to record the values of the ALS/SQZ fiber distribution path before any work gets started -- and also see how these PD's values depend on the PSL environment. These PDs are described thoroughly in LHO:83013, but in short, there's a monitor PD internal to the PSL, on the table, and a down stream fiber-coupled monitor PD inside the ALS/SQZ fiber distribution box. Note, because ISCT1 has been moved out of the way for the ISI HAM1 install, the ALS COMM 2f SHG power monitor PD is unexpected to be dead, reading zero. The good news: after the 2025-04-01 corner station vent and 2025-04-06 Power outage (LHO:83753), both ALS/SQZ path PDs report the same power as the did in Feb 2025 -- even though the PMC transmitted power is a few Watts less: Feb 24 2025 Today (Lights OFF) Today (Lights ON) H1:PSL-PWR_PMC_TRANS_OUTPUT [W] 105.0 104.6 104.6 H1:ALS-C_FIBR_EXTERNAL_DC_POWER [mW] 44.6 45.15 45.55 H1:ALS-C_FIBR_INTERNAL_DC_POWER [mW] 30.2 29.8 31.9 In LHO:83013, I reported the *log* of the power for the ALS path PDs rather than the absolute milliwats. Here, I quote both dates in absolute power [mW] for the record. Watching the long term trend of the PD internal to the ALS/SQZ fiber box, the power swings regularly by ~2 mW. The current max is ~31.5 mW, and min is 29.5 mW. During this morning's data, PSL environmental controls were on the fritz. My guess is that the optical fiber that feeds the ALS/SQZ internal monitor PD is quite sensitive to temperature, as you can see the INTERNAL power smoothly swing up and down. The free-space, on table EXTERNAL PD makes sharp 0.3 [mW] jumps when the lights are turned on and OFF, but otherwise no sensitivity to temperature. Finally, everything moves slightly with the PMC transmitted power, and the slightly smaller, seemingly random 0.2 [W] blips in PMC transmitted power are a result of Jason / Ryan going in and out of the main PSL room to try to assess with the environmental controls and turning on/off the lights. Upsettingly interesting! So, here should be our goal powers for on-table EXTERNAL PD and fiber-coupled INTERNAL PD should be somewhere around Environmental Controls and Lights OFF EXTERNAL / ON TABLE / Free-space PD 45.2 +/- 0.1 [mW] INTERNAL / IN RACK / Fiber-Coupled PD 31.2 +/- 0.2 [mW] Environmental Controls and Lights ON EXTERNAL / ON TABLE / Free-space PD 45.5 +/- 0.1 [mW] INTERNAL / IN RACK / Fiber-Coupled PD 30.6 +/- 1.0 [mW]
UPDATE: Eric rescued the PSL environmental controls after a full system reboot. The systems communications to the actually HVAC had not been recovered since the power outage, so it required a full-system restart. This was complete and the system was functional by 2025-04-15 18:20 UTC. Attached are the same PD trends as the environmental controls turn on, and the temperature in the enclosure adapts. The PMC transmitted power went DOWN from 104.6 [W] to 103.7 [W]. The EXTERNAL, on table, free-space PD went DOWN from 45.5 [mW] to 45.2 [mW]. The INTERNAL, fiber-coupled ALS/SQZ distribution box PD became more stable at 31.2 [mW]. So... NEW GOALS for the PDs with the environmental controls on and functioning normally, with the lights on: H1:ALS-C_FIBR_EXTERNAL_DC_POWER 45.2 +/- 0.2 [mW] H1:ALS-C_FIBR_INTERNAL_DC_POWER 31.2 +/- 0.2 [mW]

Edgard, Oli, Brian.
We added a folder with a script that calculates the noise budget for the OSEM estimator for an HLTS.
The folder lives in: sus/trunk/HLTS/Common/FilterDesign/Estimator/.
The script inside is called (at least for now) PR3_noise_budget.m, and it uses the simulink diagram in the same folder to run. The diagram doubles as a diagram for the estimator scheme itself, so it can be useful to look at.
We will post more commissioning scripts in this folder later in the week.
Just ensured the noise budget runs in an operator machine. It needs access to the SusSVN, to the matlabtools folder of the SeiSVN, and access to the ISI2SUS projection matrices saved in /opt/rtcds/userapps/release/isc/common/projections/
The changes are current as of SusSVN revision 12226.

For the trello tasks today:
Randy, Corey, Mitch, Richard, Jim
ISI install fixture was installed today. Like LLO, it was kind of tricky, we installed the back (-Y) stand, Randy drove the first I-beam through and we attached to the -X side of the install fixture. The +Y side of this I-beam was then hung from the crane while we grabbed the second I-beam and attached to the +X side of the -Y stand. The outer +Y stand was then brought in to support the I-beams and we took two of the outrigger legs off the middle stand and used the crane to place it as close as we could to the middle of the I-beams. The -X outrigger was re-attached and we spent some time squaring the whole assembly up to the chamber before attaching the I-beams to the middle stand. We tried to seal the chamber up as good as we can, but we don't really have covers for this step. At this point, the fixture is pretty close to where it needs to be, but we need to set the height and pull the +Y stand out of the way. Should be ready to bring the ISI into the LVea and get started with the ISI install first thing tomorrow.
J. Kissel, B. Lantz, E. Bonilla, D. Barker ECR E2400405 IIET 32526 WP 12459 Using a linear combination of LHO:83724, the google slides in G2402303, and talking to Brian/Edgard who arrived for their week long visit today -- we installed the OSEM estimator infrastructure today on PR3 *and* SR3. We've only filled in enough infrastructure to ensure that it's function is entirely OFF. Hopefully we'll get further this week. The new channels have been initialized in the safe.snap for PR3 and SR3. /opt/rtcds/userapps/release/sus/h1/burtfiles/ h1suspr3_down.snap h1sussr3_safe.snap We made edits to Brian / Edgard's work on common library parts, /opt/rtcds/userapps/release/sus/common/models HLTS_MASTER_W_EST.mdl SIXOSEM_T_STAGE_MASTER_W_EST.mdl medm screens /opt/rtcds/userapps/release/sus/common/medm/hxts SUS_CUST_HLTS_OVERVIEW_W_EST.adl /opt/rtcds/userapps/release/sus/common/medm/estim/ ESTIMATOR_OVERVIEW.adl CONTROL_6.adl (see attached notes for details). And then I made edits to /opt/rtcds/userapps/release/isi/h1/models/ h1isiham2.mdl h1isiham5.mdl to add PCIE Dolphin IPC senders to send out the calibrated ISI HAM ST1 GS13s that are pre-projected into the PR3 and SR3 suspension point euler basis, and then modified /opt/rtcds/userapps/release/sus/h1/models/ h1suspr3.mdl h1sussr3.mdl top level models to receive those IPC, and pipe them in to top of the new main libary part, the HLTS_MASTER_W_EST.mdl Finally, after Dave installed the model changes and restarted the ISIs and HLTSs, we edited the sitemap /opt/rtcds/userapps/release/cds/h1/medm/ SITEMAP.adl to use the HLTS_OVERVIEW_W_EST.adl. Everything file I mention above has been committed to its respective location in the svn. Screenshots of stuff will come in the comments.
h1isiham2 top level BEFORE vs. AFTER, focusing on the change to the output CART to PR3 EUL Suspension Point projections of IPC senders.
h1isiham5 top level BEFORE vs. AFTER, focusing on the change to the output CART to SR3 EUL Suspension Point projections of IPC senders.
Top level of h1suspr3 BEFORE vs. two AFTERs, one focusing on the IPC and the other on the main library block.
HLTS_MASTER_W_EST.mdl screenshot focusing on where the suspension point signals come in.
Some detail on the M1 block inside the HLTS_MASTER_W_EST, because I've cleaned up how the ISIFF is added into the ISC signals. This is the SIXOSEM_T_STAGE_MASTER_W_EST block. Part of the cleanup is to create a new subsystem block ADDFF, so we now have EPICs monitors and test points before and after the ADD. These will be useful for commissioning.
Here's the HLTS MEDM screen overview now, with the new parts highlighted. The second attachment here is a preview of what the infrastructure.
I double checked the positions of PR3 and SR3 before the DAQ restart that's planned for today, SR3 seems to have done a bit of drifting from the LVEA zone4 temperature increasing by ~ 2 degrees. The T cursers denote the power outage. PR3s YAW oplev looks a little different post power outage but its' top mass osems don't really seem to have moved.
Elenna, Matt, Camilla. Continuing ISC component inspection and prep for re-installation from 83858.
Elenna, Matt and I continued to first contact the optics in pans 1 and 2: M7, M11, M12 (new 90/10 BS), M13, M15 (New 50/50 BS), M16, M17, M18. After again inspecting some of those we cleaned yesterday, we decided to re-clean some. Some needed multiple first contacting, they aren't all perfect (there is a 1" long incredibly hard to see line on M15 and a mark in the center of M18 photo that I will ask a second option on), but otherwise we are calling these two pans of optics ready for re-installation.
For M15, I installed the picomotors that I removed from the right handed mount into a left handed siskiyou mount. I installed the manually adjustable actuators removed from the left handed mount into the right handed mount, this will be stored. Notes on how to do this are attached.
Still to be done: decide if M15 and M18 are okay or need swapping, clean optics in pan 3; inspect periscope mirrors; swap out any glass beamdumps we can.
In this alog, M18 is actually M10, E1000669 S/N 014, HR1064HT532. After speaking with Keita, we plan to replace the optics I couldn't clean, M10 and M15.
I have swapped the pan location of M15 and L2, so that L2 is now M15 is in pan#1 and L2 is in pan#2. This has been updated in the googledoc.
Sheila and I were concerned that the not closed-edge large white cloths could be causing more dust to fall on the optics, but the ones we packed on Friday still looked fine today so we think that is not an issue. We put individual closed-edge white cloths over each optic in pan 2. All the optics in pan 2 (HW1, L2, M7, M17) are clean and ready to install and it's placed back in the HAM3 cleanroom rack.
This afternoon Matt and I first contacted M1, M5, M6, M14, M18 and the new optics for M10 (E1000669-v1 S/N:?) and M15 (E040512-B1 S/N: 826-08). We're leaving a second coat on M1, M10 and M15 overnight, the center of the others all look good.
