I modified ASC_MASTER today to give us the option of using AS 45 Q Yaw signals to damp roll, because yesterday we saw that this was needed for ETMX.  The model is committed, and I added an medm screen that is linked from the ASC overview and the small bounce roll monitor screen for the matrix.  The ASC model changes were done today because Adam at LLO will also work on this library part tomorow durring maintence.  

I also added log scale monitors to the oaf model, but made two typos in doing this.  I've fixed the mistakes and recompiled the model, we will wait to do a make install until the normal maintence time tomorow.

Modified installed Matlab 2010a system libraries to point to Ubuntu12 system libraries to allow awgstream to run.  This is an unusual request, as the control room is set up to run Matlab 2012b by default, but one user had a script which runs with Matlab2010a (but not 2012b).

All times in UTC

15:00 It Seems the NPRO trippedhttps://alog.ligo-wa.caltech.edu/aLOG/index.php?callRep=19141. GRB alert/alarm is sounding so I'm getting my first look at where thing are regarding this. LASER is back up and Peter i working on getting it back into nominal operating condition. End Station LASER status is BUILDING SAFE for vent work. This means all viewports are secured, ISC tables are locked and safety signs have been transitioned.

To correct problems with the Simulink web view of models (accessible from https://lhocds.ligo-wa.caltech.edu/simulink/) several models have been changed to be saved at the top level of the model.  If this isn't done, the top level of the model is not generated for the web view.  The models which were changed are:

h1iscex
h1iscey
h1isietmx
h1pemcs
h1pemex
h1pemey
h1pemmx
h1pemmy
h1susauxb123
h1susauxh34
h1susetmx
h1susim

There are still a few models that need to be changed.  

Attached is a noise budget for the DARM spectrum from 2015-06-07 00:00:00Z–02:00:00Z. Notes:

• This spectrum was for 24 W, with SRC WFS retuned and the EX ESD off (LHO#18923 et seq.).
• The quantum noise level is retuned using the null stream (LHO#19077).
• Since the last noise budget, MICH FF was retuned (LHO#18878). SRCL FF is still off.
• MICH, SRCL, and frequency noise coupling TFs were retaken on 2015-06-14 in a similar configuration. Since the interferometer calibration was off, I measured the couplings into OMC sum and then undid the DARM loop and optical gain in order to get a freerunning DARM estimate.
• The intensity noise coupling TF was not retaken. However, from Gabriele's bruco projections around the same time (LHO#18935), it seems like the intensity coupling in the bucket is roughly consistent with what is shown here.
• At high frequencies, I think the frequency noise coupling TF taken on the 14th is somehow underestimating the true coupling on the 7th. The coherence from that time (LHO#18924) seems to support the idea that almost all of the DARM noise above 6 kHz is frequency noise. Either the coupling changed, or perhaps I have not undone the high-frequency response of the OMC sum channel correctly.
• From 10 to 15 Hz, I think the MICH and SRCL projections are suffering from some noise in the coupling TF measurements. From Sheila's entry yesterday (LHO#19139) we can already see that most of the DARM noise here is A2L coupling.

Conclusions:

• In the bucket, we are limited by intensity noise from 120 to 400 Hz. From 60 to 120 Hz, there is still some other broadband noise that is limiting us.
• We are limited by SRCL noise around 50 Hz, but we knew that already and we are already trying feedforward (LHO#19139).
• Above a few kilohertz (and maybe already above 2 kHz), we have a nontrivial amount of frequency noise.

Restarted the data concentrator because of changes to the h1asc and h1oaf models.

* = unintentional restart. Last day of ER7.

Have locked HEPI at X End.

The rotational DOFs are within ~100nrads of the closed loop running position.  The Translational DOFs were let go as the Rots were dialed in:  X -5um, Y +67um, Z +108um.  These are the deltas from the nominally servo'd position.

The PSL is back up. PMC is locked @ 23.2W w/2.4W in refl. This is slightly over the 10% that is consideredthe high range of optimal.

The ISS is stabilized at 7.2%diffracted power.

The FSS TPD is showing 1.34V

Frontened watchdog not reset (RED) output power @ HPO is 28.9W

HPO  (not used) watchdog is RED.

 ISS is stable now and the REFSIGNAL is set to -2.12 for 6.5% AOM diff power

Visitors: Arnaud, Katie (SURF student), Ivan (STAR program) Gary T. and Danny S., Stefan from Columbia U(timing system), Curtis Rau (SURF Student)

SEI: General maintanance. Also supporting the Vent activities.

VAC: Kyle preparing for End Station vents. Doors should be off by this afternoon. ALS LASERS will need to be turned off.

SUS: Danny S and Gary T on site to assist with discharging tests masses and working on EX pitch issues.

FAC: Clean Rooms and Dust Monitors are running - second cleaning of End Sytations in progress. Beam Tube cleaning is on ongoing.

I think that's it?

This is a minor update to those discussed in log 18987. In addition to importing live damping filters from the sites into the model (with a 5 min delay), you can now request damping filters from a specific gps time. So svn up ../SusSVN/sus/trunk/QUAD/Common/MatlabTools/QuadModel_Production.

The requirements are the same for reading live damping filters: you must have nds2 and various corners of the noise budget svn on your computer. See the notes at the bottom of this log.

The model script, generate_QUAD_Model_Production, has instructions on how to run the model with all the various features. An example of generating a model with damping filters from a specific gps time is show here:

quadModel = generate_QUAD_Model_Production(frequency_vector,'h1etmy',[],0,true,'gps1118413940h1etmy',0,0,true,8);

* frequency_vector is some frequency vector you specify.

* 'h1etmy' is the customized H1 ETMY parameter file ('quadopt_fiber' is the general quad file). All other quads have parameter files now too, but h1etmy is the only unique one at this point.

* true (the first one) says you want damping

* 'gps1118413940h1etmy' says you want the damping filters from H1 ETMY that were running at gps time 1118413940. The 'gps' prefix is what triggers the flag to read from the given gps time.

* true (the second one) says you want violin modes

* 8 says you want the first 8 violin modes in the model (2 is the default if not specified)

I am not sure how this does foton file version control when reading the filters. It claims it is loading the foton file from the given gps time, but for all I know it is actually loading the current foton file and simply displaying the gps time you gave it. One of the noise budget experts may know more about this (the site filter reading code is adapted from the noise budget stuff, courtesy of Chris Wipf).

In general, let me know if any of these new feature do not work properly, or should be modified in any way. They have been tested on my laptop, but there could be something I have missed.

The generate script has instructions for setting up your computer to get the running damping filters from the sites (either live or from a gps time). This text is copied here:

Came into the control room this morning to find that the laser had tripped.  Went to
see the Beckhoff PC and the status indicator showed "Power error (WD)" illuminated.
Not sure what caused the the reduction in power.  I do know that this morning the
lights in my office flickered a couple of times, which may or may not coincide with
the laser's power demise.  We will check the UPS log and see if it registered a switch
to batteries or something like that.

Cleaned 43 meters ending 16.7 meters north of HNW-4-072.

6/12/15
Cleaned 30 meters ending 6.8 meters north of HNW-074.
Cleaning progress has slowed as we are trying to make as little noise as possible during ER-7.
