Mid X Low Temperature alarm
Mid X alarmed this morning due to low temperature in the main room. The heating coil for this space was limited to a 95 degree discharge air temperature in the tuning parameters. This meant even with a 100% heating call in the space, the coil was only allowed to run ~50% to prevent it from putting out over 95 F. I increased the discharge air temperature limit from 95 F to 115 F to allow the heater to reach 100% capacity. Space has returned to setpoint.

cdslogin upgraded to fix EDC crash

[Dave, Erik]

CDS Login was updated to fix EPICS problems from a previous update which crashed the EDC.  See here for details on the crash: https://alog.ligo-wa.caltech.edu/aLOG/index.php?callRep=74959

Lockloss alerts were temporarily down during the upgrade.

Workaround used to keep things running in the interim wree removed.

In-Lock Charge Measruements from 26th December

On 26th Dec 75041, IFO unlocked during ETMX stage of in-lock charge measurements in 75171  I adjusted guardian code to make the transition more robust.

The ITMX, ITMY, ETMY measurements did run, analysis attached. ETMX hasn't ran since November. We will try to run them all this week in commissioning time.

Note that the x-axis of the plots isn't a to-scale time axis, we will try and change this.

WP 11602 updated tzdata on frozen systems
We updated the tzdata and leapseconds database on some frozen infrastructure systems, including the FE computers, DAQD, and guardian machines.  This was done by an apt-get install tzdata, not a general churn in the software versions.

OPO Fiber Rejected Power high, adjusted SQZT0 waveplates with picos

Vicky noticed that H1:SQZ-SHG_FIBR_REJECTED_DC_POWERMON is high, this is the rejected polarization polarization sent though the OPO pump fiber and measured in HAM7, trend over time attached.

Followed instructions in 71761 to reduce it from 0.55 to 0.03, plot. With ISS on, H1:SQZ-OPO_ISS_CONTROLMON is at 4.1V

With SQZ_OPO_LR in DOWN, H1:SQZ-OPO_REFL_DC_POWER increased from 2.2 to 2.3. Our maximum after on table AOM and fiber alignment is around 2.9V (last done August, September and November 74479).

OPS OWL shift report

H1 called for assistance at 10:15UTC, it seems to be stuck in IA as we're still ringing down from an earthquake and winds have picked up which is making locking Yarm a struggle.

IA finished at 11:12UTC, back to locking. I had to help yarm lock during IA.

With wind increasing with gusts up to 40mph I've taken SEI back to WINDY from MICROSEISM

ryan.crouch@LIGO.ORG - 04:11, Tuesday 09 January 2024 (75264)

Wind gusts up to 60mph! ALS is having lots of difficulty locking due to the wind and high microseism. The forecast on windy.com says the wind is likely stay at the same level for the rest of the morning and increase further, peaking around 11am today. So I'm not super hopeful of the IFO getting relocked, unless the wind dies down for a short period.

Canceled Tomorrow Mornings PEM Magnetic Injections and SUS In-Lock Charge Measurements

As in 74872 and 74741, I have taken PEM_MAG_INJ and SUS_CHARGE from WAITING to DOWN so that they do not run tomorrow. Instead, tomorrow Louis and Sheila will try the risky DARM loop swaps and calibration from 7amPT. To re-enable the automated measurements, the nodes should be requested to INJECTIONS_COMPLETE before next Tuesday.

IFO was unlocked from wind this morning. Re-requested both guardians to INJECTIONS_COMPLETE.

Attempted to change ADF frequency at 20:05UTC - Unsure of Issue so Reverted

We've been seeing SQZ angle not optimizing correctly (75245, 75151). At 20:05 Ibrahim took us into commissioning and I tried to change ADF frequency H1:SQZ-ADF_VCXO_FREQ_SET from 1300Hz to 200Hz. The ADF line didn't move from the 1300Hz region, just became noisy when I changed it. PLL didn't lock. Unsure why the ADF wouldn't move, I also tried 800Hz to no avail.  ADF frequency hasn't successfully been changed since Daniel adjusted the model in May 69453.

At ~16:15UTC when we got to NLN, I tried and failed at this again.

Vicky showed (image) that H1:SQZ-ADF_VCXO_CONTROLS_SETFREQUENCYOFFSET and H1:SQZ-ADF_VCXO_FREQ_SET need to be changed then the ADF successfully moved. I also turned the size of the line down by turning up H1:SQZ-RLF_INTEGRATION_ADFATTENUATE, but it was still big and probably reduced our range a few MPc. Attached settings changed and then reverted.

It didn't seem to be able to converge on zero, plot attached. After trying twice I  reverted the changes.

Dhruva points out to correctly change both of these settings we can use the script in /sqz/h1/scripts/ADF/ 'python setADF.py -f newfrequency'
