STATE of H1: Aligning
OUTGOING OPERATOR: TJ
CURRENT ENVIRONMENT:
    SEI_ENV state: USEISM
    Wind: 36mph Gusts, 26mph 3min avg
    Primary useism: 0.14 μm/s
    Secondary useism: 1.05 μm/s
QUICK SUMMARY:
H1: Unlocked
When I arrived ISC_LOCK was in Initial_alignment.
Winds are gusting above 40MPH.
Once Initial_alignmnet is finished, I'll hold in down for an hour as this wind storm passes. I'll wait for the tumbleweeds to get to where they are going.

Useism has climbed to above 1um/s and winds are above 20mph. We have been unable to keep green arms locked for long enough to complete an initial alignment for the past 1.5 hours...but then it just suddenly worked. We've made it to engaging ASC for full IFO, I'll setup H1_MANAGER again.

SHIFT SUMMARY:

Eve Shift:  Christmas Evening Edition
After the busy day shift, the evening was pretty calm.  H1's been locked most of the shift (currently at 6.25hrs)

Sadly, the secondary microseism is now above the 95th percentile at about 0.8um/s.
LOG:

• 0051 Gerardo arrives on site for VAC investigations (Tony letting him through gate)
  • ~0217 this is when Tony signed off and mentioned Gerardo leaving site as well.
• 0145-0148 Sqz bumped H1 from Observing to relock.

SHIFT SUMMARY:

Christmas Day Lockloss #1:
Happened on the OWL Shift last night. Very pecilar, Small-ish Vacuum pressure increase at EY happened seconds after the lockloss. Pressure increase seen at Mid Y as well.
Persons involved: Dave, Daniel, Gerardo, Sheila.
Seems like the Ion pump failure caused the lockloss and the time delay between the lockloss and the increase in pressure was just the speed of the gasses moving through the chambers.
Gerardo came out to site to check the Vacuum pressure & Ion pump at EY. I've also eneded up coming out here as well as a safety buddy.

Christmas Day Lockloss # 2:

Christmas Day Lockloss # 3
 

Relocking was fully automated except my request for an inital_alignment after the Earthquake.

Sheila, has asked me to try to update the H1:ASC-POP_A_YAW_OFFSET & PIT, for better stability in the while locking in CARM_TO_REFL & Resonance regions. I will try to do this tomorrow during the next lock. Since we are already locked now.

LOG:
Gerardo heading to EY and is still out there as I write this alog, I'll be onsite until Gerardo leaves.
 

Christmas Day Lockloss # 3
This lockloss was caused by a 4.9 Mag EarthQuake out of Port McNeill Canada.
H1 was unlocked very quickly, then a few EX saturations and Earthquake mode was activated.

Christmas Day Lockloss # 2:
We had am Unknown lockloss from Nominal_Low_Noise but not Observing while we waited for the ADS camers to come on.
Erik had restarted the BS H1cam26 on sw-lvea-aux on port 35 and were watching the ADS cameras try and start working and waiting. ( They did not fully start working) Erik's restart did not cause the lockloss, and Thankfully this lockloss did not come with a strange spike in pressure either.

STATE of H1: Observing at 158Mpc
OUTGOING OPERATOR: Tony
CURRENT ENVIRONMENT:
    SEI_ENV state: USEISM
    Wind: 8mph Gusts, 4mph 3min avg
    Primary useism: 0.05 μm/s
    Secondary useism: 0.70 μm/s
QUICK SUMMARY:

Just getting the Christmas Handoff from Tony and his surprisingly lively/busy day!  But all looks well in hand and this is where I take H1. 
Microseism was trending down overnight which is nice, but see that it has had a drift up around the 95th percentile line over the last 12hrs (hoping it doesn't skyrocket again...but we do have some big weather locally (atleast for the mountains with snow dump)).

At 14:36 Wed 25dec2024 PDT we had another BSC3 PT132 gauge glitch which put VACSTAT into sensitive mode. At 15:10 I reset VACSTAT.

Wed Dec 25 10:13:18 2024 INFO: Fill completed in 13min 14secs

We saw a vacuum event at EY at 02:42:53 PDT which propagated to MY. The increase in pressure was about 50% the level which would have triggered VACSTAT, so no VACSTAT alarm was raised.

The event was coincident with a lock loss.

QUICK SUMMARY:

H1 Is currently Locked and in Nominal Low Noise but one of the ADS cameras is not working currectly.
Erik has joined the Teamspeak to help me restart it.


Info Ive collected  so far.
ADS Camera Servo for the Beam splitter is glitched out again and needs to be restarted.
H1cam26 hosted on h1digivideo2.
nslookup returns 10.106.0.46

Pinging h1cam26 returns data though.
Pinging 10.106.0.46 also returns data.
