Subject: Investigate how-to XARM locking 

[Paco, Anchal]

- Started zoom stream; thanks to whoever installed it!
- Spent some time trying to understand how anything we did last thursday lead to the sensing matrix change, but still cannot figure it out. 
- Tracking back on our actions, at ~10:30 we ran burt Restore with the 08:19/.*snap and in lack of a better suspect, we blame it on that action for now.

# ARM locking??
- Reading (not running) the scripts/XARM/lockXarm.py script and try to understand the workflow. It is pretty confusing that the result was to lock Yarm last time.
- It looks like this script was a copy of lockYarm.py, and was never updated (there's a chance we ran it for the first time last thursday)
- *Is there a script to lock the Arms?* Or should we write one? To write one, we first attempt a manual procedure;
    1. No need to change RFPD InMTRX
    2. All filters inputs / outputs are enabled 
    3. Outputs from XARM and YARM in the Output matrix are already going to ETMX and ETMY
      - Maybe we can have the ARM lock engage by changing the MC directly?
    4. Change C1:SUS-MC2_POS_OFFSET from -38 to -0, and enable C1:SUS-MC2_POS_OFFSET_ON
    5. Manually scan MC2_POS_OFFSET to 250 (nothing happens), then -250, then back to -38 (WFS1 PIT and YAW changed a little, but then returned to their nominal values)
      - Or maybe we need to provide the right gain...
    6. Disabled C1:SUS-MC2_POS_OFFSET_ON (back to nominal state)
    7. Look into manually changing C1:LSC-XARM_GAIN;
      From the command line using python:
      >> import epics
      >> ch_name = 'C1:LSC-XARM_GAIN'
      >> epics.caput(ch_name, 0.155) # nominal = 0.150
      - Could be unrelated, but we noted a slow spike on C1:PSL-FSS_PCDRIVE (definitely from before we changed anything)
      - Still nothing is happening
    8. Changed the gain to 0.175, then back to 0.150, no effect... then 0.2, 0.3 ...
      - Stop and check SUS_Watchdogs (should not have changed?) and everything remains nominal
      - Revert all changes symmetrically.
      - Could we have missed enabling FM1?
      - Briefly lost MC lock, but it came back on its own (probably unrelated)

- Wrap it up for the day. In summary; no harm done to our knowledge.
