The POX11 demodulation board is broken. It needs to be fixed in the daytime tomorrow.
It only outputs the Q signal and nothing is coming out from the I output.
(Some stuff checked)
[OK] ADCs
[OK] Whitening filters looked fine. Their gains were controllable from EPICS.
[OK] Connection between the POX11 RFPD and demodulator box
[OK] The Q signal showed the PDH signal of the X arm with an amplitude of about 200 counts, which almost is the same as that of POY11.
[NOT GOOD] The I signal from the demod board
[OK] Outputs cables, which send the I and Q signals from the demod board to WFs are fine.
(Test on the POX11 demod board)
As usual, a test signal whose frequency is shifted by a little bit from that of LO was injected to the RF input of the board to see if the circuit is working.
The I signal didn't show up and there were no signals even in the monitor LEMO output.
Something is wrong in the I signal demodulation path on the circuit board.
Here is an actual time series of the I and Q signals in dataviewer. The I signal outputs just junk while the Q showed a nice sine curve.
