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. |
