Tonight we noticed that the REFL_DC signal has gone bipolar, even though the whitening gain is 0 dB and the whitening filter is requested to be OFF.

Fixed! I noticed that whitening gain changes weren't having any effect on CM_SLOW. I then checked REFL_DC, where this also seemed to be the case. Since the gain is controlled via VME machine, and whitening filter switching is controlled via RCG, I figured there must be something wrong with the board. I checked all of the DC PD signals, which share a whitening filter board, and they all had the same symptoms.
I went and peeked at the board, and it turns out the backplane cable had fallen off. 
I plugged it in, things look ok. |
