Saturday Ops Shift End.

TITLE: 07/05 Day Shift: 1430-2330 UTC (0730-1630 PST), all times posted in UTC
STATE of H1: Lock Acquisition
INCOMING OPERATOR: Ryan S
SHIFT SUMMARY:

Lockloss first thing in the morning.
Got relocked just in time for SuperEvent S250705cb candidate!
Had another Lockloss that pushed the Calibration sweep off until later in the day due to thermalization.

Dropped from Observing for SQZ "Beam diverter is open but no 3MHz on OMC, could be an alignment problem"  Issue @ 20:31 UTC.
When I cleared the History on H1:SUS-ZM6_M1_LOCK_ filters and allowed the SQZ_MAN to do lock everything it seemed to work.
Note: Did not have to move ZM4 or ZM6 sliders to get SQZ_LO_LR back to LOCKED_OMC[20].

Thermalized Calibration measurement @ 21:39 UTC.

Lockloss @ 23:26 UTC after almost 5 hours locked - link to lockloss tool

Looks to be some motion on ETM L3 shortly before the lockloss, but hard to say where this came from.

Lockloss & mid Shift report

Relocked from the Prior lockloss this morning.
H1 Made it to NLN and Observing by 16:25 UTC

Superevent S250705cb candidate !

17:27 UTC Unknown Lockloss

Relocking Notes:
H1 Relocked it self reaching NLN at 18:34 UTC after bouncing between Locking ALS and Down a few times.

The Plan:
Since H1 barely got back to Observing at 1830 UTC and wont be Thermalized until 21:30 UTC. I plan to drop out of observing at 21:30 to get a Calibration done here at LHO.

STATE of H1: Commissioning
OUTGOING OPERATOR: Tony
CURRENT ENVIRONMENT:
    SEI_ENV state: CALM
    Wind: 25mph Gusts, 20mph 3min avg
    Primary useism: 0.04 μm/s
    Secondary useism: 0.07 μm/s
QUICK SUMMARY: H1 has been locked for almost 11 hours, but currently not observing as I'm troubleshooting an issue with the SQZ filter cavity. I'm able to consistently bring everything with the squeezer up to before the FC is needed, and lock the FC up to the SQZ_FC Guardian's 'IR_FOUND' state, but every time I try moving on, the FC drops out. Investigation still ongoing.

Comments related to this report
ryan.short@LIGO.ORG - 17:32, Friday 04 July 2025 (85551)SQZ

H1 back to observing at 00:18 UTC.

Ultimately, after trying several things that didn't completely fix the issue like trending FC1/2 OSEMs, adjusting FC1/2 to maximize FC green transmission, and doing a "graceful clear history" on the filter cavity ASC, I enlisted Sheila for guidance. I ran her new 'SCAN_OPOTEMP' Guardian state to optimize the OPO temperature (then gave it a couple more steps to maximize CLF_REFL_RF6), then requested SQZ_MANAGER all the way up to 'FREQ_DEP_SQZ', which worked perfectly this time. The improvement of CLF_REFL_RF6 from 0.35 to 0.39 must have been just enough to make the filter cavity happy.

There were outstanding SDF diffs on h1ascsqzfc, possibly from my history clearing, which Sheila said were okay to just revert (screenshot attached). When I did this, I saw the green FC spot wobble, but not unlock. I then returned H1 to observing.

TITLE: 07/04 Day Shift: 1430-2330 UTC (0730-1630 PST), all times posted in UTC
STATE of H1: Commissioning
INCOMING OPERATOR: Ryan S
SHIFT SUMMARY:
H1 has been locked all day and is still locked at NLN.... But...

Dropped out of Observing at 22:54:25 UTC due to the SQZ_FC  Dropping to Down.
A few trys later it locked and H1 returned to Observing for just a second, only for the SQZ_FC to unlock again. @ 22:58:55 UTC.
Several trys after that and the FC cannot seem to lock it's self reliably. 
We have tried following the directions found in the SQZ_FC section of this SQZr Troubleshooting document.

"Beam diverter is open but no 3MHz on OMC, could be an alignment problem" - trend ZM4,5,6 alignment while trending H1:SQZ-OMC_TRANS_RF3_DEMOD_RFMON. If the alignment of any has changed, move them back slowly while aiming to increase H1:SQZ-OMC_TRANS_RF3_DEMOD_RFMON.

Found here:Troubleshooting SQZr from Ops wiki.
Slider values had not changed at all over the course of several hours but the osems had. 
Sheila called while I was setting up my ndscope to check the Osems and had mentioned that ZM5 likely didnt matter as it is ZM4 and 6 that get moved.

She had me clear the history on H1:SUS-ZM{4 & 6}_M1_LOCK_{L P Y}_OUTPUT before I  adjusted the ZM4 & 6 sliders.
H1:SUS-ZM4_M1_LOCK_L_GAIN were changed after turning up the TRamps for H1:SUS-ZM{4 & 6}_M1_LOCK_{L, P, Y}_GAIN
Then I cleared the History on those locking filters.

Once that was done I simply just move them back slowly while aiming to increase H1:SQZ-OMC_TRANS_RF3_DEMOD_RFMON as the Trouble shooting doc suggested.

Then as Sheila advised I ren SQZ_MAN through Scan_Alignment_FDS[105] wich further touched up alignment. 
After accepting SDF diffs.

We got back to Observing at 15:57 UTC @ 149 Mpc.
