Could not get past arm power of ~11 or so. I was suspicious of the transmon high-gain/low-gain PD handover, so I ran the matchTransMon scripts, but that did not help. I also removed the line in the cm_step script that increased the CM gain by 18dB at an arm power of 4. The gain of the CM servo will increase naturally as the power in the IFO builds up, so it may not be good to crank it right away. I tried several other CM gains, and watched the DARM loop, but still could not get past an arm power of ~10-11. I'm not sure what's wrong, but it may be that mysterious CM-servo/McWFS conspiracy, so we can try turning down the McWFS gain next time. |
