We turned on the OAF again to make sure it works. We got it to work well with the Ranger as well as the Guralp channels. The previous problem with the ACC is that Sanjit and Matt were using the "X" channels which are aligned the "Y" arm. Another casualty of our ridiculous and nonsensical coordinate system. Long live the Right Hand Rule!!

The changes that were made are:

• use of RANGER channel (with ACC_MC1_X and/or ACC_MC2_X)
• mu = 0.01, tau = 1.0e-6, ntaps = 2000, nDown = 16
• nDelay = 5 and nDelay = 7 both work (may not be so sensitive on delay at low frequencies)
• Main changes: filter bank on the PEM channels - ASS_TOP_PEM_## filters: 0.1:0, 1:, Notch24, AA32, gain 1
• Added the AI800 filter for upsampling in MC1 (should not matter)

Other parameters which were kept at usual setting:

• CORR: AI32, gain = 1
• EMPH: 0.001:0, AA32, gain = 1
• ERR_MCL: no filters, gain = 1
• SUS_MC1: no filter, gain = 1
• PEM Matrix: All zero except: (24,1), (15,2), (18,3)
• ADAPT path filter: union of CORR and EMPH filters, gain 1
• XYCOM switches # 16-19 (last four on the right) OFF 

Screenshots are attached.

Burt snapshot is kept as: /cvs/cds/caltech/scripts/OAF/snaps/ass_burt_100126_211330.snap

taken using the script: /cvs/cds/caltech/scripts/OAF/saveOAF

we should put this in ASS screen.

ERROR Detected in filter ASS_TOP_PEM_24 (RANGER): 1: was actually typed as a 1Hz high pass filter!

(Correcting this one seems to spoil the adaptation)

Possibly this makes sense, we may not want to block witness signals in the 0.1-20 Hz range.

  11:40 PM: Leaving the lab with the OAF running on 5 PEM channels (Ranger + Guralp 1&2  Y & Z). There's a terminal open on op440m which will disable the OAF in ~2.8 hours. Feel free to disable sooner if you need the MC/IFO.
