Since the MZ reflection is alarming all the time, I tried to improve the MZ alignment by touching the folding mirror.
I locked the X-arm and monitored the transmitted light power while tweaking the mirror alignment to ensure that the output beam pointing is not changed.
I changed the alignment only a little, almost like just touching the knob.
The reflected power monitor was around 0.6 this morning and now it is about 0.525. Still large.
I changed the alarm level (HIGH) from 0.5 to 0.55. |
