[Mirko, Jenne]

I finished (mostly? maybe?) the OAF screens.  They're pretty awesome. 

While we were playing with the OAF, trying to do some oafing, the output of the code decided to just be zeros.  We did a test, and in the c-code set the output to be a constant value, and that worked.  But when we put it back to normal (being adaptive) and recompiled, it still only outputs zeros.  The code is receiving both witness and error signals, so we don't know what's going on.

In the course of trying to make things work again, we did a complete reboot of c1lsc and c1sus.  Did a burt restore.  Everything (except our weird code problem) should be fine again.  Optics are damping happily.

I was trying to give Allegra a second head, and it didn't quite work.  It's still in progress.  Steve, you might not like how I've 'mounted' the second monitor, so we can talk about something that might work tomorrow.

After lots of trial and error, and a little inspiration from Koji, I have written a new script that will run when you select "update snapshot" in the yellow ! button on any MEDM screen. 

Right now, it's only live for the OAF_OVERVIEW screen.  View snapshot and view prev snapshot also work. 

Next on the list is to make a script that will create the yellow buttons for each screen, so I don't have to type millions of things in by hand.

The script lives in:  /cvs/cds/rtcds/caltech/c1/scripts/MEDMsnapshots, and it's called....wait for it....... "updatesnap".

 Currently the update snapshot script looks at the 3 letters after "C1" to determine what folder to put the snapshots in.  (It can also handle the case when there is no C1, ex. OAF_OVERVIEW.adl still goes to the c1oaf folder).  If the 3 letters after C1 are SYS, then it puts the snapshot into /opt/rtcds/caltech/c1/medm/c1sys/snap/MEDM_SCREEN_NAME.adl

Mostly this is totally okay, but a few subsystems seem to have incongruous names.  For example, there are screens called "C1ALS...." in the c1gcv folder.  Is it okay if these snapshots go into a /c1als/snap folder, or do I need to figure out how to put them in the exact same folder they currently exist in?  Or, perhaps, why aren't they just in a c1als folder to begin with? It seems like we just weren't careful when organizing these screens.

Another problem one is the C1_FE_STATUS.adl screen.  Can I create a c1gds folder, and rename that screen to C1GDS_FE_STATUS.adl?  Objections?

I moved the place where we take the OAF Degree of Freedom signals from - now it's the error point rather than the feedback for DARM, CARM, MICH, PRCL, SRCL, XARM and YARM.  I didn't do anything to MCL.

While trying to compile, there was something wrong with the lockins that were there...it complained about the Q OUTs being unconnected.  I even reverted to the before-I-touched-it-today version of c1lsc from the SVN, and it had the same problem.  So, that means that whomever put those in the LSC model did so, and then didn't check to see if the model would compile.  Not so good.

Anyhow, I just terminated them, to make it happy.  If those are actually supposed to go somewhere, whoever is in charge of LSC lockins should take a look at it.

Also, as Mirko mentioned in the previous elog 5811, we wanted to calculate the effect on the MC without actuating, so we put in a new summing point and a filterbank so we have testpoints.

LSC model recompiled.

OAF model recompiled.

FB restarted because of the new channels added to OAF.

Elog restart script killed the elog, but didn't restart it.  Restarted by hand.

I clicked on the FE status screen, just to check on things, and everything on the c1iscex section was red (the IOP and c1scx).  Upon deciding that was probably a bad thing, I did a soft reboot from the control room.  Now the IOP says "NO SYNC", and the c1scx status thing is totally frozen. 

I have sent Jamie a whiny email. He promises to be here soon to fix it.

 After Rana pointed out the errors of our ways, we reverted all of these changes.

I copied Mirko's PEM BLRMS block, and made it a library part.  I don't know where such things should live, so I just left it in isc/c1/models.  Probably it should move to cds/common/models.  To make the oaf compile, you have to put a link in /opt/rtcds/caltech/c1/core/branches/branch-2.1/src/epics/simLink , and point to wherever the model is living. 

I then put BLRMSs on the control signals coming into the OAF, and after the Correction filter bank in the Adapt blocks, so we can check out what we're sending to the optics.

As described in elog 2063 and the mevans document, we need to measure the TF of the OAF's plant, to find the delay.

At DC, the phase is 2.5deg, and at 32Hz, the delay is -4.6Hz (extrapolated from the points at ~30deg and ~38deg).  The DTT file is in /users/Templates/OAF/OAF-MCL-Delay-9Nov2011.xml . 

This gives a phase lag of 7.1deg at the Nyquist freq.

7.1 / 180 * 32 = 1.26, so ~1 cycle delay.  Not so much.  The new ADCs are waaaay faster than the old 110Bs.  Yay!

Jamie did computer magic.  I burt restored scxepics, and restored ETMX damping.

I am not so happy with the control signals that are coming into the OAF via the RFM/Dolphin/shmem. 

The MCL/MCF signal travels via RFM from the IOO computer to the RFM model on the SUS computer, and then via dolphin to the OAF model on the LSC computer.

The MICH and PRCL signals travel via shmem from the LSC model to the OAF model, all on the LSC computer.  They don't go through the RFM model.

The seismometer channels travel via shmem between the PEM model on the SUS computer and the RFM model on the SUS computer, and then via dolphin between the SUS computer and the OAF model on the LSC computer.

Each pdf shows the power spectrum and a time series of the signals in their "original" model, and in the OAF model.  The seismometer is the only one that seems fine.  The time series match, except for a delay which is not surprising, since the signals have to travel.  The other signals seem pretty distorted.  What is going on??? Why can we trust some, but not all, of the signals that move between models and between computers???

 (This data was all taken while the MC was locked, but MICH and PRCL were not.  I don't think this should have any effect on the signal transfer though).

The MCL isn't soooo bad, so maybe we can keep moving forward with it, but I'm concerned that we're not really going to be successful OAF-ing the other degrees of freedom if the signals are so distorted.

Mirko and  Den are measuring MC_F, which they will report about later, but I noticed that MC2 is totally crazy right now.  It shouldn't matter that they are doing things (like unplugging the feedback to the PSL's PZT), because we actuate on the laser, not on the MC.  I disabled the MC autolocker before they started working. 

Anyhow, somehow MC2 got kicked up (whatever, that happens), but it won't re-damp.  I think it's the WFS.  The yaw output from the WFS is truely crazy. 

I have disabled the WFS output / ASC input on the MC SUS screens, and MC2 was then able to damp.  My disabling only the MC2 WFS input at first kicked up MC1 and 3, so I disabled all of the WFS stuff, and all 3 MC mirrors are again happy. 

SURESH: FIX ME!  (signed, The WFS)

The following will be a stream-of-consciousness, approximately chronological story of my last hour or so of looking at screens....

In the old OAF days, we used to bypass the analog dewhitening in the coil driver path, using the XYCOMS.  See, ex. elog 2548.

I began to wonder if we needed to do the same thing now.  I checked several optics, to see how the switching works. 

For the whitening on the OSEM sensor input, FM1 is linked to the Contec binary I/O.  FM1 is the inverse whitening filter.  Turn it on, and the analog whitening is on (bit in the binary I/O screen turns red).  Turn it off, and the analog whitening is bypassed (bit in the binary I/O screen turns gray).  Good.  Makes sense.  Either way, the net transfer function is flat.

The dewhitening is not so simple.  In FM9 of the Coil Output filter bank, we have "SimDW", and in FM10, we have "InvDW".  Clicking SimDW on makes the bit in the binary I/O screen gray (off?), while clicking it off makes it red (on?).  Clicking InvDW does nothing to the I/O bits.  So.  I think that for dewhitening, the InvDW is always supposed to be on, and you either have Simulated DW, or analog DW enabled, so that either way your transfer function is flat.  Fine.  I don't know why we don't just tie the analog to the InvDW filter module, and delete the SimDW, but I'm sure there's a reason.

All optics have this setup, except MC1 and MC3.  They don't have the SimDW or InvDW filter modules.  Instead, in FM9 (which on all the other suspensions is SimDW, and controls the binary I/O) there is a 28Hz Elliptic Low Pass filter.  The only thing I can find about these is elog 1405 where Rana talks about implementing ELP28's in MC2.  But right now there is no ELP in the MC2 coil output filters.  So, if Rana's old elog is to be believed, we need to fix up the ELP28 situation.  But that elog was from a long time ago, so maybe things are different now?  If MC1 and MC3 need the SimDW and InvDW (why wouldn't they?) then the ELP28 needs to move to another filter module.  Because right now, when I click the ELP28's on and off, it changes bits in the binary I/O.  Which I don't think it should.  Maybe.  I don't really know.

Okay. So. Now we know where everything is, and which buttons do what.  Maybe not why, but at least what.

In the old world, Rob had lots and lots of trouble (elog 2027) with locking when the analog dewhitening was bypassed.  But right now, I think that all of the analog dewhitening filters are bypassed, for every single optic we have.  So.  Which way do we want things?  What's the new game plan.  What's going on??

\end{stream-of-consciousness}

I am meditating on the OAF, and had it running and calculating things.  I had the outputs disabled so I could take reference traces in DTT, but the Adapt block was calculating for MCL.  At some point, all the numbers froze, and the CPU meter had gone up to ~256ms.  Usually it's around ~70 or so for the configuration I had (2 witness sensors and one degree of freedom enabled....no c-code calculations on any other signals).  The "alive" heartbeat was also frozen.

I ssh'ed into c1lsc, ran ./startc1oaf in the scripts directory, and it came back just fine.

Anyhow, I don't know why it got funny, but I wanted to record the event for posterity.  I'm back to OAFing now.

I made a super sweet new foam box for our EOM.  It's awesome, and should be reasonably easy to duplicate.  Check out the PHOTOS!

Notes:

* I didn't think I was going to cover the inside of the box at first, since the foam is non-fuzz-generating, but Koji suggested it would be a good idea anyway.  The foam was cut perfectly to the EOM, so adding the tape inside makes it a tight fit.  Especially height-wise...leave a little space next time.

* To cover the insides of the optical path holes, do it in 2 parts.  One half-cylinder, and then another.  Way easier than trying to do the whole thing at once.  Also, pre-cut the tabs on both sides of the foil before inserting.  Then you just have to grab the tabs with tweezers and flatten them, and they hold the aluminum tape in place. 

* Having 1" wide, 2" wide and 3" wide aluminum tape was handy.  3" to make the top, 2" for the sides, and 1" for the inside of the holes. 

Is there an update on Stochmon?  Are the signals acquired somewhere already?  What's the current deal-io?  The new EOM mount should be here later today, and I'm jazzed to start checking how my EOM box helps (hopefully) the amount of RFAM we see. 

I'll start making the adapter plate while I wait...

I was measuring things to see how big my adapter plate needs to be, and I decided that we'd had enough days of the HEPA being on full blast, so I turned it down to 50, from 100.  I think it's been on full since Katrin was working on the Y-green beat a week or so ago.

I'm just on an elog roll this morning...

Again while poking around inside the IFO room, I noticed that they have replaced all of our incandescent lights with CFLs.  Do we care?  The point of having the incandescent lights on a separate switch from the big fluorescent lights was so that we could have only 60Hz lines, not wide-band noise if we want the lights on while locking. 

I'm not sure that we actually care, because more often we just turn off all the lights while trying to do serious locking, but if we do care, then someone needs to ask the custodial staff (or someone else?) to undo the change.

[Jenne, Zach, Frank]

Frank helped Zach and I cable up at PT-100 RTD, and make sure it worked with the Newport Model 6000 Laser Diode Controller.  We're using this rather than the Newport 3040 Temperature Controller because Dmass says the output of that isn't working.  So we're using just the temp control part of the Laser Diode controller.

The back of the controller has a 15-pin D-sub, with the following useful connections.  All others were left Not Connected. 

1 & 2 (same) - Pin 2 is one side of TEC output (we have it connected to one side of a resistive heater)

3 & 4 (same) - Pin 4 is the other side of the TEC output (connected to the other side of the resistive heater)

7 - connected to one side of PT-100 temp sensor

8 - connected to other side of PT-100 temp sensor

I used aluminum tape to attach the sensor and heater to the 40m's EOM, and we plugged in the controller.  It seems to be kind of working.  Zach figured out the GPIB output stuff, so we can talk to it remotely.

I don't think I touched/adjusted/whatever anything, but I did open the PSL table ~5-10min ago to measure the size of the Kiwamu-Box, so if the RFAM stuff looks funny for a few minutes, it was probably me.  Just FYI.

 [Mirko,  Jenne]

We're playing with the MC OAF, so we're actuating on MC2.  Again, FYI.

Gave the elog its afternoon / tea-time reboot, since it was hanging yet again.

I turned it back on, maybe around 11am?  Definitely a little while before the 12:30 meeting.

EDIT by KI:

 Sorry, it's me. I was checking if AC was doing something bad on the ALS noise.

Here is a drawing of where the monitors are coming from:

 Since we can't put current into the ADC, the heater drivemon is measuring the input of the OP27, which is related to the amount of current sent to the heater.

Here is 5 days of trend of the EOM temp sensor and the heater driver monitor.  Unfortunately, it looks like we're regularly railing the heater.  Not so awesome. 

[Rana, Jenne]

Some of the funniness is some kind of mysterious interaction between 2 filter modules in the filter banks.  Just FM1 (30:0.0) or just FM4 (Cheby, which is 2 cheby1's) has reasonable coherence.  Both FM1 and FM4 together doesn't do so well - the coherence goes way down.

Just FM1 (30:0.0)

Just FM4 (Cheby)

 Both FM1 and FM4

 All the coherences plotted together

You'd think that the signal encounters FM1, gets filtered, and that result is the signal sent to the next active filter module, FM4, so the 2 filter modules shouldn't interact.  But clearly there's some funny business here since engaging both makes things crappy. 

Matlab investigations to replicate this behavior offline are in progress.

I'm picking points off of this no-magnet OSEM plot, and I thought I'd write them down somewhere so I don't have to do it again when I lose my sticky note...

1e-2 Hz        1.05e-2 um/rtHz

1e-1 Hz        3.4e-3 um/rtHz

1 Hz            1.3e-3 um/rtHz

10 Hz          2.5e-4 um/rtHz

60 Hz          7.5e-5 um/rtHz

100 Hz        7e-5 um/rtHz

400 Hz        7e-5 um/rtHz

The new EOM adapter plate and riser just got back from the shop.  I just had Mike do the milling, and I'll drill and tap them tomorrow after the TAC.  Then we can remount the EOM to see if stiffening the mount helps at all.

[Frank, Jenne]

Activities in a far, far away land called PSL lab...

We are looking at the RFAM from the detuned ACAV refl pd in the red trace.  Red trace is the demodulated RFAM output.  RCAV was locked, so on a ~min time scale the freq drift follows, so we stay detuned. 

Heater and temp sensor are taped to EOM, no foam box.

Around when the red trace starts, we turn on the heater to stabilize the temp.  After a while we reach the set point (no longer railing the heater), and start seeing temp stabilization.  The RFAM fluctuations clearly go down.  Neato. 

No calibrations, no RIN, no nothing.  Get over it.

Green trace is the DC level of a different PD, which should also be sensitive to RFAM.

This is using a fancy-pants temp controller chip that Frank found.  It works, so that's handy.

 The general rule in the 40m is that if it's not an 'emergency', i.e. something is wrong with the computers and preventing the main locking work, no model recompiling-type activities at nighttime. 

Also, if you do things and recompile, you need to do an svn check-in.  That's where backups are kept.  We don't want to clutter folders with backups anymore.

I have drilled all the holes necessary, and have tapped all but 4 of the holes for the new EOM mount.  The adapter plate is finished and ready to go (including a 10-min iso sonic bath).  The riser that goes between the table and the 9082 mount is drilled but not yet tapped.

EOM is remounted on the fancy-pants new mount that I crafted.  EOM is also aligned.  2 green mirrors (the first ones to see the beams coming onto the PSL table from the arm transmissions) had to be moved so I could fit the mount in, since the new mount is bigger than the old one.  I put them back, and approximately realigned them, but didn't do any fine alignment.  This must be done before looking at beatnotes again.

After playing with the EOM, the MC was flashing on higher order modes.  The PSL beam has been realigned to make the MC lock on TEM00, and Suresh helped me center on the WFS and MC2T.

Things look okay for now.  Next step:  Kiwamu needs to find his happy mode cleaner place, and we'll realign the PSL beam to the MC.  The PSL-MC axes were mismatched pretty badly according to Suresh anyway, so this had to be done no matter what.

There were 2 open outputs on the splitter in the RAMmon (formerly known as Stochmon) box underneath the BS oplev table.  The input to the splitter comes from the Thorlabs PD that we're using as our RAM monitoring PD.  2 of the outputs go to the RMS detection of 11 and 55 MHz.  Now the other 2 (previously terminated) outputs go over to the LSC rack via SMA cable.  The signal on both channels is ~200mV pk-pk, so -10dBm.  One is plugged into the AS11 demod board (which didn't have a PD input yet), and the other goes to POP55's demod board, so POP55 is not what you think it is for now.

Koji is working on checking out the Rich box, which has 4 demodulators, which we will use eventually.  Right now we're just using the already-plugged-in demod boards so we can start looking at some trends of RAM.  We're going to need to find some channels when we're ready for the switchover.

Zach is nearing completion of the mini-update to the temp sensing system.  Once we have the new more sensitive temp sensor in place, we can have a look-see at the similarities between EOM temperature and RAM levels.

 I temporarily diverted the output of the RAMmon PD to a spectrum analyzer (4195 in Spectrum Analyzer mode), and tweaked the EOM alignment until I minimized the 11 and 55 MHz peaks as much as possible.  It was possible to get each individual peak to disappear into the noise (about -70dBm), but to get both minimized simultaneously I wasn't able to get both down into the noise.  I left the 11MHz at about -55dBm, and the 55MHz at about -60dBm.  If Kiwamu's simulation tells us that one is more significant than the other (55, because we use it for MICH?), then we can decide to favor putting that peak in the noise and sacrifice ~10dB in the other peak. 

When I first plugged the PD into the analyzer, I saw 22MHz and 44MHz (small) peaks, but they went away after the first bit of tweaking.

Before having used the analyzer, I was trying to minimize the demodulated signals via StripTool, but that was a slow process.  The spectrum analyzer was obviously much faster.

The PD has been returned to the regular RAMmon electronics.

Next up: putting in the new demod box that Koji tested last night.

So far:

* New demod box has been placed in the LSC rack.

* An extra set of +\- 24V has been prepared at the terminal block where all the Crates get their power on the LSC rack.  The grounds were all connected up, but the hot wires weren't.  So there were extra spots available, but none that were pre-wired with my voltages.

     * To do this I turned off all the power supplies in the short rack, since I decided to be a live chicken rather than a dead duck.  After hooking up the new terminal block slots, I turned on the power supplies.

 * Make a power cable to go from the terminal block to the box

Still to do:

 * Connect the spare 55MHz LO and the POP (or POX or POY) unused 11MHz LO to the back of the box

 * Move the PD inputs to the new demod box rather than the borrowed AS11 and POP55 boards

 * Plug the I & Q outs for each freq into some spare ADC channels - must first make sure we have 4 open channels.

 * See if it works.

I was looking at the trends from the RAMmon, since I did the EOM alignment yesterday, and wanted to compare them to the MC trans, just to make sure the MC was locked during the times I'm examining.  I was dismayed to discover that the MC has lost its oomph, starting around 11:30 this morning.  Den was the only person in the lab to my knowledge at that time, and he claims that he didn't touch the MC until well after lunch.  As you can see from the 8 hour trend attached, we went from normal ~26000 counts to ~15000, and we're slowly decaying from there.

MC refl looks pretty bad on the camera, particularly in YAW.  Investigations are beginning now....

Edit, ~10min later...  I enabled the WFS (I don't know why they were off...when the MC fell out of lock and relocked itself, the WFS didn't come on), and things went basically back to how they should be.  However, the sans-WFS alignment is still totally crappy, so the PSL beam probably needs to be aligned to the MC.  I don't really want to touch the alignment though without an okay from Kiwamu, so I'll wait for him to come in and confirm that he's happy with the current MC.

I checked the power regulators on the Rich demod box (according to the schematic, D1000217).  The positive one is LM2941CT, and the negative one is LM2991T.  Both accept input voltage up to +26V or -26V respectively.  So my use of +\- 24V to be regulated down to +\- 15V isn't too crazy.  It's a little crazy, but not too crazy.  They recommend having only a 3V difference between the input and output voltages.  We don't have any 18V or 20V power supplies in the regular LSC power supply rack, so Rana suggested using the 24's. 

When I plug in and turn on the Rich box, the current on the +24V power supply goes up by about 0.8A, and the -24V supply goes up by about 0.3A.  That seems like kind of a lot.  Is that too much?  Do I need to find a better plan that involves +\- 18V?  Thoughts?

For now, the Rich box is off, just in case.

 Kiwamu and I discussed, and looking at the AS camera with the PRM and SRM misaligned, but MCWFS engaged, things look good.  This means that it's probably the MC that has drifted, and we want to align the MC back to the PSL beam.

Foam house installed on EOM a few min ago.  We'll leave it until ~tomorrow, then try out the heater loop.

PMC trans was only ~0.79, where it should be ~0.84 something.  The MC was also not stellar. 

I aligned the beam to the PMC, and am now getting PMC trans 0.837 .

Then I aligned the PSL zigzag to the MC, and got MC Refl down to ~0.6 . 

I then aligned the WFS to the unlocked MC, and the MC Trans QPD to the locked MC.

Things seem good.  MC axis is still in a good place, since we get good michelson fringes at the AS port.

Dataviewer couldn't connect to the framebuilder, so I checked the CDS status screen, and all the fb-related things on each model went white, then red, then computer-by-computer they came back green.  Now dataviewer works again.  Is someone secretly doing shit while not in the lab???  Not cool man!

EOM was aligned to minimize the 11 and 55 MHz peaks in the RAMmon PD the other day (elog 6089), and was left with just the temperature sensor attached, no heater, no foam box.

Here is a 4 day trend:

I don't have a whole lot to say about this, other than there's a lot of stuff going on.  The craziness at the end is me realigning the PMC and MC since, as you can see, MC trans was way down.  The foam box was put on earlier today (elog 6104), so we'll see how that changes things over night.

Now we've got another day of data, with the foam box on for the last 24hrs.

First plot is a 5 day trend so you can see that the RAM has gotten a little bit smaller, as has the temperature drift, but not by a whole lot.

Second plot is the last 19 hours (so excluding much of the time while I was realigning beams on the PSL table yesterday), to zoom in on just the time when the foam box was installed.

After lunch Zach and I are going to engage the heater to temperature stabilize the system, to see how that affects things.

In other news, the MC looks like it was fine for a good long time, and ~3 hours ago it went bad.  The mode that's flashing is really bad in both pitch and yaw.  I don't know what happened, but something is not so awesome. Edit: Steve said that he opened the PSL table at some point this morning to look around but not touch, and also it's Janitor Day, and Kevin comes in around 8ish. That doesn't mean I know the actual cause, but those are the only things that happened in the IFO room this morning that anyone is aware of.

The Rich demod box wants 10dBm for the local oscillator inputs, so I measured the values that we have coming out of the distribution box.  I'm using the "Spare 55MHz" and the "POP11" outputs, both of which had terminators so were not in use. 

The 55MHz had ~600mV peak, so between 5 and 6 dBm. 

The 11MHz had ~800mV peak, so about 8 dBm.

This is not enough dBm for either.  Going in search of RF amplifiers now...

 Yeah, I looked and saw that it's a semiconductor mixer, so it doesn't have to be as perfect. 

Everything is plugged in now to the new demod board.  More details soonly...

The I & Q outs are plugged into whitening filter #3, channels 5-8.  11MHz I = chan 5, 11MHz Q = chan 6, 55MHz I = chan 7, 55MHz Q = chan 8.  These channels are probably already recorded, but I haven't checked yet.  Hopefully I'll have time tonight after I pack for my trip.  But Zach, can you look into it tomorrow just to check??  Backup plan is to just go back to using the AS11 and POP55 boards and channels if the new board isn't doing what it's supposed to.

I disconnected the 3rd and 4th channels of the demod box since they were drawing unnecessary current, and making the box hot.  Now the box is just warmish.

Is there a reason the framebuilder status light is red for all the front ends?

Also, I reenabled PRM watchdog.

 Do we have PSL pos and ang QPD trends?  We should start watching them, because the PMC drifted back down to 0.76 transmission, ~3.5 days after Kiwamu realigned it (his elog is from last Thurs).  Not so awesome.

I walked through the control room just now and found both PMC and MC unlocked.  They're both locked now, but with PMC transmission 0.76, MC transmission ~24,500.

Bob, Callum and Daphen noted that our keeping a JDSU HeNe (max power <4mW) is against somebody's SOP.  So I cleared everything that relates to 40m SOS suspending to the bottom shelf of the 2nd cabinet in the cleanroom (the back set of cabinets nearest the flow benches).  The door has a nifty label.  Things that are in there include:

HeNe

HeNe mount

QPD and micrometer mount

microscope and micrometer mount

iris

Al beam block

Magnet gluing fixture

dumbbell gluing fixture

The electronics that we use (HeNe's power supply, 'scope, QPD readout) are still on the roll-y thing under the flow bench.

The mode cleaner is super unhappy.  It's rocking around at ~1Hz.

I turned off the WFS and turned them back on after the MC was locked, and it seems a little happier now.  At least it's not falling out of lock ~1/minute.
