The biggest reason why we could not lock the MC was that the beam was not properly hitting the MC REFL diode.
Now the MC REFL DC is about ~0.1 and 1.2 when the MC is and is not locked.
We increased the power according to the quantitative analysis of the intracavity power in this earlier entry
Autolocker script for the low power MC was modified so that the initial VCO gain is 3 in stead of 10.
The 2 steps of super boost were also enabled again. |
