From trending H1:FEC-117_GDS_MON_0 (the channel on the OPS overview) it looks like it changed around 21:35 UTC on Nov. 24. Is this because it was switched to PCAL X and the medm needs to be updated to use a different channel? alog 23701

I have increased the heat at both end stations, End-X by 1.5Ma and End-Y by 1Ma. I have also increased the heat in zones 2B and 3A, each by 1 stage in the LVEA. I will continue to monitor all of these changes. 

TITLE: 11/26 [DAY Shift]: 16:00-00:00 UTC (08:00-16:00 PDT), all times posted in UTC

STATE Of H1: Observing @ ~ 78 MPc.
OUTGOING OPERATOR: Nutsinee
QUICK SUMMARY: 
From the cameras:
The lights are off in the LVEA.
The lights are off in the PSL enclosure.
The lights are off at mid X.
I can not tell if the lights are on or off at mid Y.
The lights are off at end X.
The lights are off at end Y.

The 0.03 - 0.1 Hz (earthquake) seismic band is between ~ 0.01 and 0.05 um/s.
The 0.1 - 0.3 Hz (microseism) seismic band is between ~ 0.1 and 0.4 um/s.

The winds are between ~ 0 and 10 mph.

The ISI blends are on Quite_90.

From pinging:
CDS WAP is off at the LVEA.
CDS WAP is on at mid X.
CDS WAP is on at mid Y.
CDS WAP is off at end X.
CDS WAP is off at end Y.

H0:FMC-CS_LVEA_REHEAT_4_DEGF is high (> 100). H0:FMC-CS_LVEA_ZONE1B_B_DEGF is low (< 60). Plot of minute trends for last 21 days attached.

STATE Of H1: Observing at ~80 Mpc

INCOMING OPERATOR: Patrick

END-OF-SHIFT SUMMARY: Quiet night. Wind below 20 mph. Average Useism reads 2e-1. The 501.606 Hz line pretty much dissapeared into the noise floor so if the ifo lose lock the SDF difference for SUS ITMY damping gain can be accepted (Guardian doesn't turn the gain on so the gain will be 0). I just noticed the Airhandlers and Temperature alarm for the corner station. Patrick's posting some plots.

Happy turkey day.

Couple of violin modes are high. I'm watching the RMS to make sure they're not ringing up.

TITLE:   Nov 25 Eve Shift 0:00-8:00UTC

STATE Of H1: Earthquake

END-OF-SHIFT SUMMARY: It started ok...

Activity Log:

Quiet until 6:00, when an earthquake from Brazil rolled in, haven't been able to lock since. ALS just fails as soon as it tries to lock. Got to Check Ir just as Nutsinee arrived.

Quiet shift so far, IFO still going at a little less than 80 Mpc. Winds quiet, microseism continues to trend down. 

Title: Ops Day Shift: 16:00-00:00UTC (8:00-16:00PT) all times in UTC

State of H1: locked all day, range increasing as useism decreases, now at 79.6Mpc

Incoming Operator: JimW

Shift Details:

• 18:44-19:20UTC, Kyle to/from X28
• 19:05-19:10UTC, car drives to OSB receiving
• 21:51-22:33UTC, Kyle to/from X28 - shut down generator
• Video0 was skipping EPICS data and then reconnecting, making the striptools artificially flat-line every 30 seconds or so.  I rebooted the machine and restarted the striptools and all is well

ETMY saturations:

• 16:39UTC
• 16:43UTC

Will start the ion pump next week

As of 21:06UTC, H1 is still locked from last night, and currently at 77.5Mpc.

Winds are steady at 5-30mph.

Useism is decreasing, and currently between 0.2 and 0.4um/s.

TITLE:   Nov 25 Owl Shift 08:00-16:00UTC (00:00-08:00 PST), all times posted in UTC

STATE Of H1: Observing at ~80 Mpc

LOCK DURATION: 7 hrs 4 mins

INCOMING OPERATOR: Cheryl

END-OF-SHIFT SUMMARY: Useism is slowly decreasing. Wind is still at 20-30 mph. Otherwise quiet night.

Activity Log:

8:22 BS ISI ST2 tripped

8:35 Kyle on site going to X2-8 to refill the generator.

9:08 Kyle left

Still observing at ~75 Mpc. Useism reads 2e-1 um/s. Wind speed 20-30 mph.

I have attached the screenshots of all the SDF I accepted. I accepted all the changes with the ISI and accepted the old ASC gains since they were decreased to help with the 45mHz instability (from what I uderstand). We are using 90mHz blend everywhere at the moment. I forgot to take a screenshot of ETMX ISI changes but it's the same as ETMY. I've also attached the screenshots of ground motion and wind monitor when the IFO was locked. ETMX violin mode at 505.707Hz seems higher than usual. I'm keeping an eye on it. The amplitude seems to be decreasing slowly. I'm playing a violin in the control room and playing Pan's Labyrinth album on the big speaker (violin-heavy. only half as loud as Robert's injection).

Ops Day Shift: Nov 23rd 2015 0:00-8:00UTC

State of H1: unlocked, wind and microseism making locking difficult

Assisstance today: Jenne, Evan, Jeff

Summary:

An earthquake early on kept us from locking, then winds and microseism. Currently ALS won't stay locked, finding IR is barely possible. I've tried several permutations of ISI configurations, but nothing has helped much. Currently running 90mhz blends everywhere, as that was the best until about 20 minutes ago.
