  236   Tue Sep 5 18:21:12 2023 Ronic ChicheFixedinfolasers and opticsThomX iglooFP-cavity FSR shifttoday, to match the ring frequency at 500.25MHz
(15th laser harmonic), we did a frequency
shift on the laser using the Smaract motors

of the LaseLock : they work properly but
the noise is bigger than the low voltage

is 0-10V, but during the several runs we
did, this voltage is too low to compensate

cable to the FP-cavity PZT cable (DB9-DB9)
and to the channel B of the Laselock.

in reflexion of the cavity, that its voltage
level stops increasing after 50% of power
