Firstly I am very sorry for the length of this alog
I needed to finish up the comparisons for the satamps that were swapped on Tuesday (86207), as well as rerun almost all of the other comparison damp regression plots for every suspension that has had its satamp swapped out for ECR E2400330, either with different times or with the loop suppression divided out. There were also multiple changes made to the damp_regression_compare.m file. So I've gone and done that, so here are the results in this master post. I will link to the old results when applicable. They are out of order as compared to when their satamps were swapped.
damp_regression_compare.m
Now creates a plot of the ratios, lists important IFO info, and saves some of the variables to a .mat file
found in /ligo/svncommon/SusSVN/sus/trunk/Common/MatlabTools/damp_regression_compare.m

STATE of H1: Observing at 151Mpc
INCOMING OPERATOR: Ryan S
SHIFT SUMMARY: Locked for 4 hours, observing for 35min. Had a bit of a pivot today since we needed to clear some tumbleweeds from the overpass. This took up much of our commissoining time, as well as an earthquake delaying lock reacquistion, so we were approved for some afternoon commissioning.

STATE of H1: Observing at 147Mpc
OUTGOING OPERATOR: TJ
CURRENT ENVIRONMENT:

Wind: 13mph Gusts, 5mph 3min avg

QUICK SUMMARY: H1 just returned to observing after commissioning for most of the day and has been locked for over 3 hours.
Camilla noted that the Opo pump iss was close to saturating, because our launched power has increased quickly at this new crystal position.
I've reduced the OPO trans set point to 75 uW from 80uW, which brought the control signal back to 2.5 V.
I've updated some of the thresholds on SATMON.adl for suspensions that have had their DAC cards upgraded in recent months, alog84509. The 18 bit thresholds have been updated to 20 bit for the following
BS M1 F1F2F3LF RTSD
ITMY M0 F1F2F3SD LFRT
ITMY L1 ULLLURLR
ITMX M0 F1F2F3SD LFRT
ITMX L1 ULLLURLR
I went out to plug in the frequency noise injection cable at the PSL racks and found it was already plugged it. This is probably my fault- a quick alog search turned up this alog, written by me: 85363. So it maybe have been plugged in for over a month while we were in observing.
I made sure to unplug the cable at the end of my injections today!

Lockloss at 2025-08-07 16:15UTC after 5.5 hours Locked due to some fast tractoring it's looking like an ETMX glitch :(
Ran our usual calibration measurements this morning following the wiki instructions. We plan to make some bias changes and then run this again. I'll comment to this log with that info.

The lock loss that we had over night was unfortunately an ETMX glitch. We hadn't seen one since changing the ETMX bias July 28th so we were hopeful that it was the fix. Sad.

Ivey,
I finished the yaw-to-yaw transfer functions for the OSEM estimator using the corrected measurements that Oli took for SR3 yesterday [see LHO: 86202].
The fits were added to the Sus SVN and live inside '~/SusSVN/sus/trunk/HLTS/Common/FilterDesign/Estimator/fits_H1SR3_2025-08-05.mat'. They are already calibrated to work on the filter banks for the estimator and can be installed using 'make_SR3_yaw_model.m', which is in the same folder.
Attached below are two images of the fits for the estimator.
The first attachment shows the Suspoint Y to M1 DAMP Y fit. The zpk for this fit is
'zpk([0,0,-0.027+20.489i,-0.064+11.458i,-0.027-20.489i,-0.064-11.458i],[-0.072+6.395i,-0.072-6.395i,-0.096+14.454i,-0.096-14.454i,-0.062+21.267i,-0.062-21.267i],-0.001)'

J. Kissel I'm are trying to figure out the best metrics for showing off the improvements to the OSEM PD's satellite amplifier's whitening improvements. Thus far, Oli's been using the input to the damping loops as the metric, using a regression of the corresponding ISI's GS13s to subract out a fit of how much of that sensor signal is seismic noise, and dividing out the loop suppression -- see LHO:86149 for the most recent examples comparing before vs. after the sat amp upgrade. Without the presence of any other noise or control signals, that should be a fair comparison of the OSEM PD's sensor noise improvement. However, for a lot of these comparisons ISC control signals are complicating the comparison -- usually at low frequency where ISC control is typically distributed to the top masses. I use this aLOG as an example of how to better understand this contribution breakdown for a relatively simple suspension -- H1SUSMC1 -- which only has P and Y ISC control from the IMC WFS. (Longitudinal control for IMC L is fed to MC2). This will also be interesting in the future :: in the context of how SPI and other sensors may improve the cavity motion, :: in terms of what DOFs and loop's worth of control drive at which frequencies -- important for discussions along the lines of "DOF [blah] is dominating the control signal, and the actuator cross-coupling for M1 drive of DOF [blah] to M3 optic DOF [blorp] is large, so let's reduce the DOF [blah] drive," and :: in terms of whether/where implementing ISI GS13 estimator feedforward will improve things. To understand how much of the damping loop *error* signal is composed of ISC *control* signal, I look compare the - the ISC control signal, - the DAMP *control* signal, against the - the MASTER total control request, all calibrated to the same point in the control system -- where the control output is summed and in the OSEM basis; just down-stream of the EUL2OSEM matrix, and just upstream of the COILOUTF filters which compensate for the coil driver frequency response (uninteresting for this study). Pitch -- the T1T2T3 actuators (3) Attachment 3 Pitch Noise Comparison excerpt from Oli's LHO:86149. These are times when the IMC was LOCKED, so there should be ISC control. But, see the expected factors of 2x-to3x improvement in the OSEM noise below ~5 Hz. So, maybe the ISC control is so low in bandwidth that its affect isn't impacting this study. But, we can see that there's clearly some other loop suppression that has not been accounted for, so maybe it *is* high bandwidth? Let's find out. (1) Attachment 1 Comparison of ISC pitch, DAMP pitch, as well as the other DAMP DOFs that use the T1, T2, and T3 actuators -- Vertical and Roll -- control signals. Here, we can clearly see that the damping loops are dominating the T2 (and thus T3) control signal above ~ 0.5 Hz, or conversely, the IMC WFS DC coupled control is dominating below 0.5 Hz. (2) Attachment 2 shows that the T2 and T3 sensors receive identical request (mostly an out-of-phase combination of Pitch and Roll damping request, as expected from the EUL2OSEM matrix), and T1 drives mostly Roll damping request. The vertical drive request is subdominant at all frequencies. (3) Attachment 4 shows the open loop gain and loop suppression TF magnitudes for pitch. The loop suppression here looks very much like the inverse of the shape of the ASD left in the pitch regression, making me worried that Oli's automated regime for removing the loop suppression isn't perfect... I'll ask. Yaw -- the LFRT actuators (7) Attachment 7 The before vs. after comparison of OSEM noise (5) Attachment 5 Similar comparison of ISC vs. relevant DAMP control -- showing IMC WFS control dominating only below ~0.2 Hz. (6) Attachment 6 As expected from the EUL2OSEM matrix, the LF and RT actuators receive the same control. (8) Attachment 8 Shows the open loop gain and loop suppression TF magnitudes for the Yaw damping loop.
"[...] Attachment 4 shows the open loop gain and loop suppression TF magnitudes for pitch. The loop suppression here looks very much like the inverse of the shape of the ASD left in the pitch regression, making me worried that Oli's automated regime for removing the loop suppression isn't perfect... I'll ask. Followed up wth Oli on this, and indeed there was a bug in the application of the loop suppression -- a blind python "dir" of the optic's directory for exported loop suppression text files returned the list of files alphabetically (L,P,R,T,V,Y) rather than in the canonical order of (L,T,V,R,P,Y) so that means the P suppression was taken out of the T ASD, etc. They've fixed that now (and added the loop suppression itself to the ASD plot as a visual aide) -- here's a sample of the improved MC1 P and Y, before vs. after plot.

Today, Sheila and I decided to increase the ETMX ESD bias voltage. We would like to operate at a higher bias for a short period to see if the extra actuation range allows us to survive the ETMX glitch locklosses. However, we also wanted to understand what effect this has on our range.
Sheila made small steps to increase the ETMX bias voltage and adjusted the L3 drivealign gain accordingly. After every step, I measured the DARM open loop gain and we adjusted the drivealign gain further to maintain the DARM UGF. Once we doubled the voltage, we further adjusted the drivealign gain to bring kappa TST to one. It's important to note that we saw that the correction factor required to maintain the UGF (at 70 Hz) was slightly different than the correction factor required to bring kappa TST back to 1 (measured at 17.6 Hz).
We took a PCAL broadband measurement at the regular and double bias configurations (documented here). Even with kappa TST near 1, there was a small frequency-dependent difference between the two measurements.
Sheila then took us back and forth from the double bias to regular bias states so we could get some noise comparison times to determine if the noise is worse with double bias.
| Times in UTC | Start | End |
| double bias | 17:41:58 | 18:03:37 |
| single bias | 18:08:20 | 18:17:30 |
| double bias | 18:18:37 | 18:26:37 |
| single bias | 18:27:40 | 18:35:40 |
I exported the PCAL broadband injections and used them to calibration GDS strain for the four times above into PCAL meters. The noise from 15-400 Hz looks to be the same for each time, so I don't think there will be a significant impact to the sensitivity if we double the bias.
I ran a linear regression fit on the voltage and drivealign data from our steps, using this document as reference. I was able to fit alpha - gamma (slope) and the beta values (y-intercept). I calculate alpha - gamma = 9.14e-10 N/V^2 and beta - beta2 = -4.08e-8 N/V
We are planning to go to this double bias for some time to see if reduces the number of ETMX glitch locklosses.
We've done this change with a guardian shell. I've attached a text file with options that people can use to do these steps, or revert them.
