Last night I was making a script which will measure the sensing matrix using the realtime LOCKIN module.

The script is a kind of expansion of Jamie's one, which measure the asymmetry, to more generic purpose.

It will shake a suspended optic of interest and measure the response of each sensor by observing the demodulated I and Q signals from the LOCKIN module.

I will continue working on this.

  (current status)

 - made a function that drives the LOCKIN oscillator and get the data from the I and Q outputs.

 - checked the function with the MICH configuration.

   ITMX, ITMY and BS were shaken at 100 Hz and at different time.

   Then the response of AS55_Q showed agreement with what I got before for the actuator calibration (see this entry).

   It means the function is working fine.
