Subject: c1su2 model updated with SUS damping blocks for 7 SOSs 

[Anchal, Koji]

I've updated the c1su2 model today with model suspension blocks for the 7 new SOSs (LO1, LO2, AS1, AS4, SR2, PR2 and PR3). The model is running properly now but we had some difficulty in getting it to run.

Initially, we were getting 0x2000 error on the c1su2 model CDS screen. The issue probably was high data transmission required for all the 7 SOSs in this model. Koji dug up a script /opt/rtcds/caltech/c1/userapps/trunk/cds/c1/scripts/activateDQ.py that has been used historically for updating the data rate on some of theDQ channels in the suspension block. However, this script was not working properly for Koji, so he create a new script at /opt/rtcds/caltech/c1/chans/daq/activateSUS2DQ.py.

[Ed by KA: I could not make this modified script run so that I replaces the input file (i.e. C1SU2.ini). So the output file is named C1SU2.ini.NEW and need to manually replace the original file.]

With this, Koji was able to reduce acquisition rate of SUSPOS_IN1_DQ, SUSPIT_IN1_DQ, SUSYAW_IN1_DQ, SUSSIDE_IN1_DQ, SENSOR_UL, SENSOR_UR, SENSOR_LL,SENSOR_LR, SENSOR_SIDE, OPLEV_PERROR, OPLEV_YERROR, and OPLEV_SUM to 2048 Sa/s. The script modifies the /opt/rtcds/caltech/c1/chans/daq/C1SU2.ini file which would get re-written if c1su2 model is remade and reinstalled. After this modification, the 0x2000 error stopped appearing and the model is running fine.

Should we change the library model part for sus_single_control.mdl

We notice that all our suspension models need to go through this weird python script modifying auto-generated .ini files to reduce the data rate. Ideally, there is a simpler solution to this by simply adding the datarate 2048 in the '#DAQ Channels' block in the model library part /cvs/cds/rtcds/userapps/trunk/sus/c1/models/lib/sus_single_control.mdl which is the root model in all the suspensions. With this change, the .ini files will automatically be written with correct datarate and there will be no need for using the activateDQ script. But we couldn't find why this simple solution was not implemented in the past, so we want to know if there is more stuff going on here then we know. Changing the library model would obviously change every suspension model and we don't want a broken CDS system on our head at the begining of holidays, so we'll leave this delicate task for the near future.
