Subject: PSL turned on again 

I turned the 2W NPRO back on again at ~4pm local time, dialing the injection current up from 0-2A in ~2 mins. I noticed today that the lasing only started at 1A, whereas just last week, it started lasing at 0.5A. After ~5 minutes of it being on, I measured 950 mW after the 11/55 MHz EOM on the PSL table. The power here was 1.06 W in January, so ~💯  mW lower now. 😮 

I found out today that the way the python FSS SLOW PID loop is scripted, if it runs into an EZCA error (due to the c1psl slow machine being dead), it doesn't handle this gracefully (it just gets stuck). I rebooted the crate for now and the MC autolcoker is running fine again. 

NPRO turned off again at ~8pm local time after Anjali was done with her data taking. I measured the power again, it was still 950mW, so at least the output power isn't degrading over 4 hours by an appreciable amount...
