Still no retroreflection from ETMY. Kapton washers for Picos were installed. (Georgia, Keita)

We went in the EY chamber and saw that the return beam was off on the secondary mirror at 1:30 position, the radial distance from the forward going beam was maybe 5 or 6mm. The return beam was not even hitting the bottom periscope mirror under the TMS optics table.

We steered TMS suspension as much as we could using the bias slider and it was clear that we need at least twice the range for YAW, more for PIT. We need positive PIT and YAW, both at around a milliradian. That's huge misalignment.

This cannot be ring ERM as the original ERM was wedge-less.

The wedge of the new ETM is somewhat different (old one was 0.076 deg, new one 0.07, the difference is 0.006 deg or 100 urad), and this is not large enough to cause milliradian difference.

We checked apparent interference but we couldn't do a thorough job.

We installed kapton washers to the picos, but we haven't installed collars as it will change the TMS balance (we will NOT fix the lack of collars as there's no need for gross motion of picos at this point).

Weekly PSL Chiller Reservoir Top-Off
FAMIS 6563

Added 100 mL H2O to the H1 PSL crystal chiller. The lower left canister filter is discolored. The top right canister filter is white and clear of debris.

The fault light on the diode chiller is not lit.

   Discoloration in the Crystal Chiller filter is due to the 70w install. The filter is downstream from the new amp and supporting plumbing and caught the gunk from them. Will swap in a new filter when the PSL work is finished.

Vertex volume ready pump down
Bubba, Gerardo, Kyle 

We removed BSC1's North Door for Betsy W. and re-installed after she completed her in-chamber work.  We are pumping BSC1's annulus with a small turbo backed by a leak detector overnight.  We expect to helium leak test the door in the morning followed by submission of a WP to pump down the Vertex Volume.

Torqued the two flanges that were removed, F2-3 and F3-1.  Leak testing needs to be done for both.

LHO ESD Pin Layout @ Feed Thru

Summary of the pin layout of the ESD segments as seen from the air-side feed-through connector. Same configuration for ITMY, ITMX, ETMY, and ETMX.

Pin 1 - LR
Pin 2 - UR
Pin 3 - BIAS
Pin 4 - UL
Pin 5 - LL

Following E1400430, Pin 1 is slightly offset in spacing from the other pins. New style feed-through has a one to one pin layout (pins are not flipped inside flange).

TCS Laser keys removed by me

In prep for removing the BSC1 door, I turned to OFF, and then removed the keys to the TCS lasers in the LVEA.

After we were finished putting the door back on yesterday I put the keys back in the TCS power supplies and turned them back on. Beam blocks have been in place on the table for a few weeks mow however so this was just extra caution.

Cable Fixtures Installed on H1 In-Air Table Enclosures

To have a place to hold/anchor bundles of cables for the In-Air tables, fixtures were installed on the top of the enclosures of most of the in-air optical tables for H1; this includes:  ISCT2, TCSy, TCSHT4R, TCSx, ISCT6, SQZT6, ALSy, & ALSx.  (Could not install a fixture on IOT2 because there was other equipment in the way.)  For all tables, I handled cables & had to lift bundles of these cables to fit them on the new fixtures (see photos of various installations).

ITMY UIM

While closing out the recently replaced SUS ITMY R0 RT OSEM (alog 40634), found short on UIM chain. Short is on cable SUS_ITMY_16, pin 5, cathode side of LED for UIM UR.

betsy.weaver@LIGO.ORG - 17:48, Wednesday 21 February 2018 (40651)

Sheila and Kissel have confirmed that this UIM UR LED is not used (and would be a much larger scope to fix).  So, we have opted to save this fix for a future  fix.  Attached shows the spectrum of all of the L1 and L2 stage OSEMs for ITMY - you can see the elevated noise on the black L1 UR trace.

BSC1 ITMY OSEM signal fix, logistical details

This morning, Kyle and Bubba finished removing the door to BSC1.  I entered the chamber and began poking the ITMY R0 Right BOSEM cable from the OSEM connection out through the structure to the Table Cable Bracket.  No change.  I then also tried all of the following which produced no improvement to the spectra:

- Reseating the cable in the Table Cable Bracket

- Unbundling the cables that were secured to the upper structure leg

- Reseating the cable on the BOSEM itself

- Swapped the RT cable with the Side - problem went away - which meant that the problem was the BOSEM itself.

Removed BOSEM from structure and attempted to find short on the unit - no luck.  Swapped unit which meant removing it from it's adjustment bracket and rebuilding before reattaching.

Once back on the structure found it was OK.  Set OLV and 50% flag setting.

Cleaned flooring, removed tools, looked for cable routing issues in case I undid some other nice work.

Left chamber.  Kissel ran a few TFs which showed healthy.  Fil checked for HIPOT on the ESD connection and started another rounf of ground loop checks.  Tacked up door.

ETMY Hardware Watchdog Tripped on LED fault condition

This is just a FYI for future re-enabling of BSC10 ISI, the EY HWWD tripped after an LED fault persisted for more than 20 minutes. The fault condition has subsequently been removed, however the ISI trip is latched (ISI coil drivers are powered down) until such time the front panel reset button on the HWWD chassis is pressed.

Comments related to this report
david.barker@LIGO.ORG - 13:14, Wednesday 21 February 2018 (40639)

I've added more detail to the HWWD section of the CDS Overview MEDM (see attached). Each HWWD status color bar now has two elements. The left element turns RED if either PD or LED fault condition is active. The right element turns RED if the ISI system is tripped.

The left element can transition between RED and GREEN if the faults come and go. If the right element is RED, it can only be made GREEN by pressing the RESET button on the chassis itself.

I've also included a related display button to open the HWWD MEDM directly. Note that macro substitution rules requires the SITEMAP to be reopened for the button to work.

EndY Pcal beams misaligned

TravisS and RickS

Yesterday, we switched on the Pcal laser at Yend to check the alignment of the beams after the replacement of the ETM.

With the ETM in the nominal alignment according to the optical lever, we found that the Pcal beams at the Rx side are badly misaligned, one beam actually missing the relay mirror.

This is likely due to either a) the ETM not being properly oriented or b) the Pcal periscope orientation having shifted during B&K measurements or the addition of vibration dampers back in January.

We plan to investigate early next week, going inside the vacuum envelope and installing the Pcal target on the ETM suspension structure.

FRS 9477--HAM6 corner3 again noisy

See alogs 39484 to start, this covers the corner3 CPS laying on the rail and attempts to clear it.  It seemed okay after in chamber work on  30 November, alog 39579.  However, as I look again in an effort to close the ticket, it looks like while the position has not shifted (like it was doing before,)  the noise on the channel has increased.  The increase is not causal with door removal and the other corners' sensors do not show any similar time series noise expression.  This corner3 CPS satellite box is maybe the most vulnerable to proximal activity and there is of course the 5-way cross installation complication. Dang!  I will change the FRS status from PENDING to what ever it should be now.

The attached 120 day plot shows the HAM6 CPS local sensors.

Far more details to come, but we've replaced the H1 SUS ITMY R0 LF OSEM in order to fix the noise / shorting problem (see LHO aLOG 40555, FRS Ticket 9683, Work Permit 7358). It's new open light current values are 

         Open Light Current / ct     GAIN          OFFSET
         (as ADC Counts)             (30000/olc)   (-olc/2)

R0 RT    29804                       1.007         -14902

I've accepted the new values in the SDF system.
