BS ST1 CPS trips

I came in to lock the IFO for Adam's injections which are scheduled for 2 hours from now, (38380), but have had about 4 BS ISI ST1 CPS trips in the last hour. 

Two of these might have happened while the BS was isolating stage 2 (I have not double checked) but at least one happened while we were just sitting in CHECK_IR (no feedback to the BS sus, ISI state should not have been changing).  The screenshot attached is for that most recent trip in CHECK_IR

Edit:  Made it to a fully locked interferometer and was engagning ASC when it happened again, again it was a glitch in the ST1 H3 CPS.  Second screenshot 

Edit again: This seems very similar to the situation described in 37499, 37522 the third screenshot shows the glitches getting worse over the last 1:40 minutes.  Jim describes power cycling the satlite racks which seemed to make the problem go away last time. 

Another update: I power cycled the 3 top chassis in the CER rack SEI C5, these are labeled BSC ISI interface chassis and have cables going to BSC2 CPSs, GS13s and L4C's.  The ISI has not tripped in about 20 minutes, I am relocking but paused to damp violin modes.

Another attempt at Detchar Safety Injections

Sheila plans to come in and lock the IFO this afternoon, so that I can try to finish these detchar safety injections. I've schedule 7 injections, the first one will begin at 16:06:22 PDT, and the last at 16:51:22 PDT. Here is the update to the schedule:

1187824000 H1 INJECT_DETCHAR_ACTIVE 0 1.0 detchar/detchar_27July2017_PCAL_{ifo}.txt
1187824450 H1 INJECT_DETCHAR_ACTIVE 0 1.0 detchar/detchar_27July2017_PCAL_{ifo}.txt

1187826700 H1 INJECT_DETCHAR_ACTIVE 0 1.0 detchar/detchar_27July2017_PCAL_{ifo}.txt

The IFO should be left out of observation mode. Also, I'm not sure if the PCALX 1500Hz line gets turned back on, but this also needs to be turned off. Simply typing the following on the command line will do the trick:

caput H1:CAL-PCALX_PCALOSC1_OSC_SINGAIN 0
caput H1:CAL-PCALX_PCALOSC1_OSC_COSGAIN 0

The interferometer is locked in Nominal low noise and the PCAL X 1500 kHz line is off as of 22:55 UTC.  I hope that the BS ISI will not trip during the injections.  (alog 38382)

sheila.dwyer@LIGO.ORG - 16:42, Saturday 26 August 2017 (38384)

The interferometer unlocked just before 1187825964, so I think that 4 or 5 of these injections would have completed before it unlocked.  I don't know why it unlocked.

adam.mullavey@LIGO.ORG - 20:39, Saturday 26 August 2017 (38385)

According to the guardian log (see attached), the first 5 of these injections made it in. The fifth one ended at 1187825913 (about 50secs before the lockloss). This should be enough injections for now. Thank you Sheila for coming in on a Saturday afternoon and locking the IFO for us!

Short version: I made omega scans for the 5 sets of injections that were done above andyou can find them here: https://ldas-jobs.ligo-wa.caltech.edu/~jrsmith/omegaScans/O2_detchar_injections/ (note that after the first set the rest of sub-directories of the start time for each set). 

Long version: The Injection files are here: https://daqsvn.ligo-la.caltech.edu/svn/injection/hwinj/Details/detchar/. These are timeseries sampled at 16384 Hz and they start at the injection times listed in the original entry above. Times of the injections start 0.5s after times given in alog, and are separated by 3s each. Some simple Matlab to plot (attached) the injection file and print a list of times is: 

% Plot hardware injections
fnm = 'detchar_27July2017_PCAL_H1.txt';
data = load(fnm);
t = 0:1/16384:(length(data)-1)*1/16384;

figure;
plot(t,data)
xlabel('time [s]')
ylabel('amplitude [h]')
title(strrep(fnm,'_','\_'))
orient landscape
saveas(gcf,'injections.pdf')

% Print times of injections
t_start = 1187824000+0.5;
times = t_start:3.0:t_start+106;
fprintf('%.2f
',times)

To submit the omega scans I used wdq-batch like so: (gwpysoft-2.7) [jrsmith@ldas-pcdev1 O2_detchar_injections]$ wdq-batch -i H1 times-1.txt, then submitted the resulting dag to Condor. 

OmegaScan results are here: https://ldas-jobs.ligo-wa.caltech.edu/~jrsmith/omegaScans/O2_detchar_injections/

These will take some hours to run and we will then look at the results to see if there are any obvious unsafe channels. In addition we'll look statistically using hveto.

This is the equivalent comment to the comment for L1's detchar injections hveto safety analysis on page 35675

I ran hveto_safety on the injections mentioned above, looking for coincidences within 0.1sec time window.

I missed that there we 4 extra sets of injections, so I've redone the hveto safety analysis on the complete set of 180 injections.

STS2 Wind/Floor Tilting Measurement now at Roam9

Thursday afternoon we had a brief but strong wind event--See first plot: 2 day's minute trends.  I had moved the roaming STS2 a week or more ago and now resides at position Roam9.  At the corner station the wind average touched on 20mph for maybe 90 minutes with a stable direction of about 170o or ~from EndX toward the corner.  No non-wind seismic evident.

The second attachment shows the usual STS ASD comparisons between the Roaming HAM5 and the Detector used ITMY STSs, see 38184 for the Roam8 comparison and you can follow back from there.  Great news: for the X dof here at Roam9, the HAM5 STS shows several factors less floor tilting than ITMY starting at 30ishmHz; and, the Y dof is maybe no worse--is that band between 10 & 100mHz too much?

So bottom line Roam9 shows promise!

Times: RefTime is low wind, 25 Aug 0930 utc.  High wind is 0130 25 Aug.  XMLs in /ligo/home/hugh.radkins/STS_Seismometer_Studies

All H1 QUADs Have Complex Non-f^6 Dynamics above 50 Hz
J. Kissel

I've processed the data from LHO aLOG 38232, in which I was looking to see if the complex, high frequency dynamics found in the UIM (L1) stage of H1 SUSETMY (see LHO aLOG 31603).

Plots are attached; note that I've used the former 2016-11-17 data for ETMY. To guide the eye, I show the calibration group's dynamical model used during O2. Data shown with a coherence threshold of 0.75 or greater. I've not yet compared this against the unphysical, fitted update to the QUAD model that Brett developed for H1 SUS ETMY in CSWG aLOG 11197

It looks like 
- All suspensions see the "unknown" ~165 Hz resonance, though interestingly ITMY's mode appears to be split. ETMX and ITMY's are *strikingly* similar.
- only ETMY and ITMX show what Norna suspects is the "UIM blade bending mode" at ~110 Hz. ETMY's is indeed the ugliest.
- All but ETMX show evidence for resonances between 290 and 340 Hz, which are likely the (Suspension Point to Top Mass) wire violin mode fundamentals weakly excited by the UIM excitation. (see LHO aLOG 24917, T1300876)
- All suspensions show their (UIM to PUM) wire violin mode fundamentals between 410 and 470 Hz (see LHO aLOG 24917, T1300876)
- ETMY and ITMY's wire violin modes are *strikingly* similar; ITMX's modes are surprisingly low Q.
- We don't see the TOP to UIM wire violin modes likely because I didn't excite up to high enough a frequency; they're between ~500-510 Hz for ETMY (modeled at 495 Hz).


So now the question becomes -- what's the physical mechanism for this huge mystery resonance that's seen virtually identically in all QUADs? It seems quite a fundamental feature. Why is it split on ITMX?

It would be nice to have similarly detailed measurement of L1's QUADs, but all evidence from calibration measurements on L1's ETMY UIM stage point to this same feature (see the discrepancy between model and measurement for the UIM stage, e.g. in 2016-11-25_L1_SUSETMY_L1_actuation_stages.pdf LHO aLOG 29899). Further, it's *still there* before and after their Bounce/Roll mode Dampers (BRDs) have been installed (i.e. the same feature is seen in O1 and O2 CAL measurements; the above linked measurement was after BRD install).

I'm attaching the l2l st2 gs13 measurements for ITMX that we used for closeout after install. The 160 hz feature doesn't seem to show up on the ISI. The 300 hz feature maybe does? I don't think it's very conclusive.
