To get the angle to length signal before the c1ioo processor gets going, we need a length signal. We can use either the error signal or the control signal.

I recommend using the control signal since its not puny. The 4-pin LEMO inputs to the OSEM ADC that Suresh has wired are differential so we can, in principle, use either the BNC output of the SERVO plug or the 2-pin LEMO output.

The analog whitening on the OSEM Whitening board should be engaged via the SUS MEDM screen so that we get a good SNR at the A2L dither frequencies.

If the ADC saturates, then we should use a pomona box RC low pass to cut everything off above 100 Hz.

Also, a comment about Yuta's elog: we estimated that the seismic motion was ~1e-7 - 1e-6 meters. The MC linewidth ought to be ~lambda/(2*Finesse) ~ 1e-9.

So, the MC servo as it was was not giving us enough gain (1/f above 50 Hz; UGF ~5-10 kHz) to get the error signal to stay in the linear PDH region. Kevin's filter gave us ~10x more gain at the seismic frequencies (1-3 Hz) of concern.

I've wheeled the old HP audio frequency signal analyzer into the control room to debug the GPIB/python interface. The wireless setup was getting more than 80% packet loss in the office area.

I also noticed that we have multiple and competing copies of the netgpib package installed. Kiwamu is going to merge them soon. Pleae only use the official location:

scripts/general/netgpibdata/

which is also the SVN working copy. Committ all changes periodicallty so that we can share the updated versions between sites.

When swapping Eurocard boards, it is safest to first turn down the power supplies and then do the swapping.

Otherwise, it is sometimes the case that people plug in the board slowly and/or asymmetrically. This can cause the opamp to see one of the power supply rails without the other (e.g. +15 but not -15).

This can destroy some opamps. The true danger is that there may be damage to the board which you do not notice for several months, thereby leaving a timebomb for the next person.

Don't be an electronics terrorist!

I moved the lens just before the PMC to check the mode matching landscape. The PMC trans went up from ~6.5 to ~6.8. That's 5% with ~1 hour of work.

As per the micrometer, this took ~7-8 mm of travel. Since there's so much power left in the HOMs, we we we will have to do a proper mode scan and re-calculate the solution.

The measured transmission is now ~610 mW. The power reflected from the PMC with it unlocked is ~1400 mW.

I looked at this web page: http://www.teledyne-cougar.com/Index.asp for the RF company that Rich has recently started using.

There are ~15 amplifiers that they sell which have a NF < 2 dB and work in the 10-100 MHz band. We should call them to find out if they will package some amps for us or at least sell us a few with eval. boards so that we can make our own.

The moral of the story is, PUT THINGS IN THE ELOG. This wild process is one of those things where people say 'this won't effect anything', but in fact it wastes several hours of time.

We like to have the MC TRANS channels so that we can run all of our old scripts and trends on it. This is the usual BROWN

channel that's on the LockMC screen. Its also the thing that we use for thresholding to activate the MC Autolocker Daemon.

I modified the ioo.db file in the target/c1iool0/ directory so that the MC_TRANS_SUM, _P, and _Y channels are all now just

CALC records of the MC2 OL channels (where the calculation is MC_TRANS_SUM = MC2 OL_SUM + 0.001, etc.). I then

rebooted c1iool0 a few times to get the syntax right. It SEEMS to be working now. I'm sure that this won't effect anything.
I've committed the new file to the SVN repo. Once Suresh is done hacking the QPD circuit, we can set the threshold in the Autolocker.

As part of the effort to debug what was happening with the slow computers, I disabled the auto MEDM snapshots process that Yoichi/Kakeru setup some long time ago:

https://nodus.ligo.caltech.edu:30889/medm/screenshot.html

We have to re-activate it now that the MEDM screen locations have been changed. To do this, we have to modify the crontab on nodus and also the scripts that the cron is calling. I would prefer to run this cron on some linux machine since nodus starts to crawl whenever we run ImageMagick stuff.

Also, we should remember to start moving the old target/ directories into the new area. All of the slow VME controls are still not in opt/rtcds/.

Since Nodus is a Solaris machine it can barely handle doing the ImageMagick commands (such as convert and import). I removed the auto MEDM snapshot routine from it

awhile ago and I think the rate of ELOGD crashes has decreased, although its not definitive.

The snapshots have now been re-actived to run on MAFALDA, after I fixed the absolute pathnames in the scripts and installed (via yum) the packages that mafalda

needed to run this (Xvfb, openmotif, compat, etc.). The snapshots web page is now refreshing by itself and the statScreen/cronjob.sh is running on mafalda 5x per hour.

https://nodus.ligo.caltech.edu:30889/medm/screenshot.html

IF I believe this calibration and IF I believe that the noise is the same with no magnet in there, then its almost 1 nm/rHz @ 1 Hz.

I am guessing that Jenne's calculation will show that this is an unacceptably high level of OSEM sensor noise, OAF-wise.

import re
o = open("output.adl","w")
data = open("test.adl").read()
o.write( re.sub("C0:TIM-PACIFIC_STRING","C1:FEC-34_TIME_STRING",data)  )
o.close()

The next step is to figure out how to apply this to all the files in a directory.

The following channels should be named as below to keep in line with their names pre-upgrade rather than use _DAQ in the name.

Valera and Haixing and I installed a PMC REFL camera today. We stole the camera control box from the MC2 trans area (because I don't know why we need a camera there).

We installed it such that it is looking at the leak through of the last turning mirror before the PMC REFL RFPD. This beam was previously going into a Thorlabs razor blade dump.

There is no steering mirror to align into this camera; we just positioned the camera such that the REFL beam fills up the monitor. WE cable tied the cable to the table and the

output of the camera control box is piped into the control room correctly as PMCR. The "IMCR" quadrant is actually the PMCT beam. JoonHo is going to fix this promptly.

Also, I noticed how beautiful  the MC2 Simulink diagram is so I post it here for your viewing pleasure. We should take this as a reference and not produce any new diagrams which are less useful or beautiful or easy to understand.

Wow. I typed DTT on rossa and it actually worked! No complaints about testpoints, etc. I was also able to use its new 'NDS2' function to get data off of the CIT cluster (L1:DARM_ERR from February). You have to use the kinit/kdestroy stuff to use NDS2 as usual (look up NDS2 in DASWG if you don't know what I mean).

This morning (~0100) I started to redo some of the wiring in the rack with the FB in it. This was in an effort to activate the new Megatron (Sun Fire 4600) which we got from Rolf.

Its sitting right above the Frame Builder (FB). The fibers in there are a rats nest. Someone needs to team up with Joe to neaten up the cabling in that rack - its a mini-disaster.

While fooling around in there I most probably disturbed something, leading to the FB troubles today.

Looks like there was a power outage. The control room workstations were all off (except for op440m). Rosalba and the projector's computer came back, but rossa and allegra are not lighting up their monitors.

linux1 and nodus and fb all appear to be on and answering their pings.

I'm going to leave it like this for the morning crew. If it

This is looking better, but the fit data for the TF should be plotted along with the data. The data should be made up of points and the fit a line.

For the fit, we should have the Q of the main resonance as well as the peak height of the main resonance and the values of the gain at the notch frequencies.

Also the peak as well as the notches should have the frequencies fit for and labeled. In principle, you can make the plot on the wiki have all of the data. Then in the end we can print the plot in a small size and glue it to the PD's backside.

 I suppose that if we were really clever we would intentionally choose either the AR or HR surface so as to minimize the effect of the thermal lensing and/or thermal expansion from the locked interferometer absorption.

The process was taking up 100% of the CPU and not responding via web. The .log file showed the last action was somebody reading/editing one of Jenne's entries from August regarding TT ECD. The restart script didn't work, so I had to do a 'kill -9' to get it to die.

I deleted the yellow box which showed up by default when making an elog entry. Would be nice if we could make it so that you have to click a button to 'opt-in' for the yellow box rather than get it by default.

I added a 'robots.txt' file to the /users/public_html/ area using Google's instructions (it only works with robot compliant crawlers), but am not sure how to put robots.txt into the elog port.

Suresh killed the elogd again from India. This was the log file:

After another elog crash, I've blacklisted the domain that Suresh is using by editing the apache httpd.conf. Let's see what happens now.

This is not such a bad base design, but remember that we have to get a couple of parts with the purple anodize to see if there is a difference between black and purple in terms of the 532 nm reflectivity.

I came in today to check up on the StripTool and burn the Ubuntu LTS (new CDS OS) DVD. I was pretty excited to see the PRM flashes on Mon1.

I waggled the PRM/BS alignments and got a good contrast MICH and then bright flashes in the PRM that totally overload Mon1's CCD.

Now I can see flashes of some IR junk in the X Arm; its way off on the left edge of the mirror, but there's a beam.

For the short term, we can hook up the IO PZTs to some old EPICS channels (like one of the AUX guys in the LSC area), but eventually it has to get hooked up to the new ASC or ASS. We have to bug Joe to see where this shows up in his master diagram.

**Note: if you get lost sometimes when doing the alignments, remember that you can use time_machine_conlog.

Restoring now...

Restoration Successful

Attached is the last 8 days of Vacuum Pressure trend which includes the pumpdown.

The crontab for op340m which runs various IFO maintenance activities has been set to the wrong path for the watchdog rampdown script since the CDS changeover.

This is a dangerous situation. With the watchdog thresholds set as high as 1000, the magnets can be broken if the new CDS has some mental problems. This kind of thing happened before at LHO (which is why Stan invented the watchdogs). Please try to make sure that the watchdog thresholds are not set that way - its our only defense against bad CDS.

I've now corrected the crontab. The watchdog thresholds are being stepped down every 30 minutes as before.

However, out test points are gone again, so who knows how things are behaving.

 I found that there was no PEM data nor any other data (no SUS or otherwise. No testpoints, no DAQ).

I went through the procedure that Jenne has detailed in the Wiki but it didn't work.

1) Firstly, the 'telnet fb 8088' step doesn't work. It says "Connected to fb.martian" but then just hangs. To replicate the effect of this step I tried ssh'ing to fb and doing a 'pkill daqd'. That works to restart the daqd process.

2) The wiki instructions had a problem. In the GUI step, it should say 'Save' after the Acquire bit has been set to 1. Even so, this works to get the .ini file right and the DTT can see the correct channel list, but none of the channels are available. There are just 'Unable to obtain measurement data'.

3) I tried running 'startc1pem', but no luck. I also tried rebooting c1sus from the command line. That worked so far as to come back up with all the right processes running, but still no data. The actual /frames directory shows that there are frames, but we just can't see the data. I also tried to get data usind the DTT-NDS2 method, but still no luck. (*** ITMX and ITMY both came back with all their filters off; worth checking if their BURTs are working correctly.)

Using DataViewer, however, I AM able to see the data (although the channel name is RED). In fact, I am able to see the trend data ever since I changed the Acquire bit to 1. Plot attached as evidence. Why does DTT not work anymore???

Since Leo was trying to demo his LIGO Data Listener code, he noticed that there was and NDS2 issue. The NDS2 guy (JZ) noticed that the FrameBuilder had an issue.

We investigated. At 4PM on Dec 31, the GPS timestamp of the frame file names started to be recorded wrong. In fact, it started to give it a file name matching the correct time from 1 year in the past.

So that's our version of the Y2011 bug. Here's the 'ls' of /frames/full:

drwxr-xr-x 2 controls controls 252K Dec 26 03:59 9773
drwxr-xr-x 2 controls controls 260K Dec 27 07:46 9774

drwxr-xr-x 2 controls controls  36K Jan  5 00:22 9467
controls@fb /frames/full $

The culprit is the directory who's name starts out as 9463 whereas it should be 9779.

Just a proof that the DAQ is working - ran DTT on nodus from 3 hours ago.

Pretty fancy work actually...I wouldn't have guessed that you need to look at the back of the ETM. Does this mean that we can't see the flashes from inside the arm cavity? If so, its a pretty remarkeable statement about the wide angle scatter of the new mirrors. Do we really have 1W going into the MC?

 I started reverting Megatron into a standard Ubuntu workstation after Joe/Osamu's attempt to steal it for their real time mumbo jumbo.

First, I installed a hard drive that was sitting around on top of it. That whole area is still a mess; I'm not surprised that we have so many CDS problems in such a chaotic state. There's another drive sitting around there called 'RT Linux' which I didn't use yet.

Second, I removed the ethernet cables and installed a monitor/keyboard/mouse on it.

Then I popped in the Ubuntu 10.04 LTS DVD, wiped the existing CentOS install and started the standard graphical installation of Ubuntu.

Megatron's specs attached: 

There's, as usual, a disconnect between the real martian host table and the one displayed on the Wiki. Basically, the point is: DO NOT TRUST THE WIKI, because people who update the actual host table only randomly update the wiki table.

The only thing worth trusting is the file

/var/named/chroot/var/named/martian.zone
on linux 1.

You will need to have 'root' or 'sudo' to get into that directory to read the file.

I ramped the PMC gain slider to find where it oscillates. It starts going bad at ~13 dB, so the new default gain is 7 dB to give us some margin for alignment improvements, etc.

I also fixed the TIME field in our MEDM screens by adding the following text to the C1IFO_STATE.db file which runs on c1iscaux:
grecord(stringin, "C0:TIM-PACIFIC_STRING")
{
    field(DESC, "Current time and date")
    field(DTYP, "EPICS IOC VAR")
    field(SCAN, "1 second")
    field(INP, "C1:FEC-34_TIME_STRING")
}

grecord(stringin, "C0:IFO-TIME_PACIFIC")
{
    field(DESC, "Current time and date")
    field(DTYP, "EPICS IOC VAR")
    field(SCAN, "1 second")
    field(INP, "C1:FEC-34_TIME_STRING")
}
This gets the time info from the c1ioo processor via channel access and gives it these mroe reasonable names. The first record is for backwards compatibility. The second record is a better name and we should use it in the future for all new screens. I had to reboot c1iscaux several times to figure out the right syntax, but its OK now. You have to reopen stale screens to get the field to refresh.

This avoids the previous idea of changing all of the MEDM screens.

Actually, I just found out that there are different flavors of 'YAG-444'.

There's a YAG-444AH and also a YAG-444-4AH. I'm not sure which one we have or even which is better. The diode's internal resistance is not listed.

They also say explicitly that he 'YAG Enhancement' is just using thicker Silicon. Since the absorption of 1064 nm light in Silicon is very small, most of the light just goes in and then comes back out without depositing much of the power.

I like this activateDAQ script, but someone (Jenne with Joe's help) still needs to add the PEM channels - we still cannot see any seismic trends.

I installed NTPD on Megatron (its Ubuntu, so different from the CentOS workstations). Here's the terminal cap to show that its actually working:

megatron:/etc>sudo /etc/init.d/ntp restart

Along the way, I also updated the /etc/inet/ntp.conf file for nodus. It was using the USNO as a NTP server and I've pointed it to the Caltech NTP server as per the IMSS NTP page.

I used 50 mA to drive the laser diode. The light is split 50/50 between the DUT (Device Under Test) and the New Focus 1611 (1 GHz BW) diode used as the reference.

This measurement is the TF of DUT/(New Focus). The resonances are there, but clearly there's an issue with instability around 200 MHz. The setup is still powered up, so please be careful around the RFPD testing table (don't stomp around yank the cables out of the power supplies).

I looked at the RF Photodiode wiki that Alberto has started - most of the TF features are replicated there. Todo:

* Update the 'schematic' with a real schematic instead of the cartoon.

* Change the circuit to remove the resistor in the RF path.

* Add compensation to avoid the 200 MHz instability.

* Make sure to include opamp current noise in the noise model (it is the dominant noise source but has been left out in the noise estimation plot).

* Make the output into a true 50 Ohms.

I found this old plot in an old elog entry of Osamu's (original link).

It gives us the differential displacement noise of the arms. This was made several months after we discovered how the STACIS made the low frequency noise bad, so I believe it is useful to use this to estimate the displacement noise of the arm cavity today. There are no significant seismic changes. The change of the suspension and the damping electronics may produce some changes around 1 Hz, but these will be dwarfed by the non-stationarity of the seismic noise.

The DAQ Wiki pages say to use port 8088 for restarting the Frame Builder. I tried this to no avail.

op440m:daq>telnet fb 8088
Trying 192.168.113.202...

Connection to fb.martian closed by foreign host.

Apparently, 8087 is the right port. Various elog entries from Joe and Kiwamu say 8087 or 8088. Not sure what's going on here.

After figuring this out, I activated the C1:GCV-XARM_COARSE_OUT_DAQ and C1:GCV-XARM_FINE_OUT_DAQ and set both of them to be recorded at 2048 Hz. We are loading filters and setting gains into these filter modules such that the OUT signals will be calibrated into Hz (that's why we used the OUT instead of the IN1 as there was last night).

We've set up a beat note measurement between the VCO driver and the Marconi (see Suresh's elog).

Here's the 'unWhiten' filter for compensating the SR560 TF.

It has poles = 1 mHz, 5 kHz, 5 kHz

and  zeros = 30 mHz, 1 kHz

The gain is set to be ~0.001 in the 1-100 Hz band to compensate the G=1000 of the SR560.

Very cool.

But the PLL seems very fishy to me. The ZP-3MH needs 13 dBm to operate correctly. You should change the MODLEVEL input of the VCO so as to make the LO input of the mixer go up to 13 dBm. Then the input from the PD should be ~0 dBm.

Also, the PLL diagram seems to show that you have a 1/f^2 loop: 1/f from the SR560 and 1/f from the Hz->rad conversion ??

That's some pretty fast work! I thought we would be taking up to a week to get that happening. I wonder what's the right way to measure the inherent frequency noise of this thing?

Also, should the comparator part have some hysteresis (ala Schmidt trigger) or is it best to just let it twirl as is? Is it sensitive to DC offsets on the input or is there a high pass filter? What's the correct low pass filter to use here so that we can have a low phase lag feedback to the ETM?

(Jenne, Rana)

Tonight we noticed that there were significant improvements to be had in the predicted DARM Wiener filtering FF performance by using weighting filters and more taps in the FIR filter.

The plots below tell the story:

The first one shows the improvement in the residual (black & blue) by applying a weighting filter. The weight filter tilts the spectrum up at HF and applies and all real pole BP from 10-20 Hz.

The second plot shows the improvement gotten by using 3000 instead of 2000 taps for the Wiener filter. With the larger number of taps we not only get the big improvement at LF, but also some beefy reduction in the higher frequency stack modes and the LOS roll mode.

I'm not sure why we haven't run across this before; the weighting filter was arrived at today by just iterating by hand on the placement of poles and zeros until the trace looked nice.

Jenne is going to run this new filter on the S5-month that we have been using for stationarity testing.

* Some notes:

** this Wiener stuff is faster, by far, on rossa than either megatron or rosalba or my laptop. More than a factor of 3.

*** there is a bug with Macports/Matlab - if you get fftw3 with Macports, it sets itself as the right version to use. This confuses matlab in some cases.

     if you get the error about libfftw3.dylib, whe trying fft in matlab after installing macports, then you can fix it by setting the Matlab lib/ path with the fftw libraries to be ahead of /opt/local/lib in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH in your .cshrc.

I swapped over to a 3x longer cable (old 65 ft. Pasternak cable from ancient 40m days). The old one was 6m, the new one is 18.2 m. It was already coiled up so I put it into a tupperware box to shield it somewhat from the HVAC wind.

The noise went down nearly proportional to the length (after I recalibrated the DAQ channel for the ~3x higher phase->voltage gain). With this length, the peak-peak mixer range is 5.5 MHz, so still enough to go an FSR here.

I give credit to the low frequency improvement entirely to Tupperware for their excellent containers. The current noise limit is most likely the SR560.

I noticed that the RMTEMP channel was spiking myteriously when Kiwamu opened the PSL door. We found out that the LEMO connectors would intermittently short to the case and cause ~1 deg steps in the temeprature.

We have removed the case and examined it. Not only were the connections to the box intermittent, there was a cold solder joint inside on an unsecured flying add-on opamp. The whole thing is a giant hack.

PK was the last person to work on this box, but I'm sure that he wouldn't have left it in this state. Must be gremlins.

The LEMO connectors on the front are the ones touching. The LT1021 is the badly soldered part.

375 mW is way too much light. We must never put more than 100 mW on any of these diodes. We don't want to blow up more diodes like we did with the WFS. The InGaAs diodes often show an excess dark noise before they finally let go and completely fail. This one may show excess during the shot noise testing.

We should ensure that the beam paths are engineered so that none of these new detectors ever sees such high light levels.

The DC path should be made to let us see a 10V from the differential EPICS readout when there is 100 mA of photocurrent (i.e. an effective 100 Ohms transimpedance):

0.1 A  * 10 V/A * 5 V/V * 2V/V

The last factor of 2 is from the single to differential conversion.

If we really only get 15 mV from 375 mW, then this diode or the circuit is broken.

This is just a listing of  CDS problems I still notice today:

1. MC2-MCL button was left ON due to BURT failure. This, of course, screws up our Green locking investigations because of the unintended feedback. Please fix the BURT/button issue.

2. The GCV - FB0 status is RED. I guess this means there's something wrong? Its really a bad idea to have a bunch of whited out or falsely red indicators. No one will ever use these or trust these in the future.
3. MC1/2/3 Lockins are all white. Also, the MODE switches for the dewhitening are all white.
4. Is the MC SIDE coil dewhitening filter synced with anything? It doesn't seem to switch anything. Maybe the dewhite indicators at the top right of the SUS screens can be made to show the state of the binary output instead of just the digital filter
5. MC WFS is all still broken. We need a volunteer to take this on - align beams, replace diodes, fix code/screens.

Although Joe and Kiwamu claim that they have inserted the correct DAQ names for the OPLEVs (e.g. PERROR and YERROR) back in Jan. 11, when I look today, I see that these channels are missing!

I want my PERROR/YERRORs back!
