After the MZ alignment, I aligned the MC with the periscope mirrors.
It looked like the MC mis-alignment was mainly caused by the input beam change.
So I left the MC mirrors as they were to keep the output beam pointing.
However, after I finished the alignment, the MC output beam was too low on the Faraday.
Also the X-arm did not lock to TEM00 mode. So the MC mirrors must have also shifted to a weird alignment state.
I should have restored the MC mirror alignment to a good state using the OSEM DC signals.
Rana came in and restored the MC mirror alignment using the SUS drift mon.
He and Kakeru is now working on the periscope to align the beam into the MC. |
