Comparing IMC WFS during IMC offline before and after outage...but then it changed

After the lockloss today, we took the IMC offline for a bit, and I moved the IMC PZTs back to around where they had been before the outage. The time from then when we had the IMC offline was September 11, 2025 18:07:32 - 18:11:32 UTC. I then found a time from before the outage when we last had the IMC offline, which was September 02, 2025 17:03:02 - 17:19:02 UTC, and verified that the pointing for MC1 P and Y were about the same, as well as the IMC PZTs are in the same general area.

I then looked at IMC-WFS_{A,B}_DC_{PIT,YAW,SUM}_OUT during these times. The dtt, where blue is the Sept 2 time and red is the time from today, seems to show similar traces. The ndscopes (Sept2, Sept11) show many of those channels to be in the same place, but a few aren't - H1:IMC-WFS_A_DC_PIT_OUT has changed by 0.3, H1:IMC-WFS_A_DC_YAW_OUT has changed by 0.6, and H1:IMC-WFS_B_DC_YAW_OUT has changed by 0.07. However, after this time, we relocked the IMC for a while, and then went back to offline, between 19:25:22 - 19:31:22 UTC, and these values changed. I've added that trace to the dtt in green, and it still looks about the same. Many of the WFS values have changed though.
