we removed the threshold on the
FPC/RF error signal.
  
  387   Wed Dec 11 18:51:35 2024 Ronic ChicheUnder Processreportmechanics | lasers and optics | detectors and electronicsThomX iglooday by day run for X-ray productionThis morning, I added an amplifier on the
33MHz beating signal in between the mixer+LPF
and the scope/Laselock.

current in the IcePap controllers of the
FP cavity motors.

the Christmas shutdown.
everything went fine.
  
  391   Wed Jan 8 12:24:48 2025 Ronic ChicheUnder Processinfolasers and optics | detectors and electronics | cablingThomX iglooCEM noise measurementsThe goal of these measurements is to check
if one can find some correlation between
the CFP lock losses observed during a run

parts of the machine with Vincent and Nicolas,
and we didn't see any change in the Loop
  
  394   Thu Jan 23 17:55:41 2025 Ronic ChicheUnder Processreportmechanics | lasers and optics | detectors and electronicsThomX iglooday by day run for X-ray productiontoday we did x-rays => we got 41 000
pA at maximum and 90kW in the FPC for 33%
amplifier ratio.
  
  395   Thu Feb 6 10:29:36 2025 Ronic ChicheUnder Processreportmechanics | lasers and optics | detectors and electronicsThomX iglooday by day run for X-ray productionthis morning, I restarted the lock of the
CFP after almost 2 weeks without operation.

  397   Tue Feb 11 10:55:21 2025 Ronic ChicheUnder Processinfomechanics | lasers and optics | detectors and electronicsThomX igloocorrelations between accelerometer and lock losses @ 20Hztoday I connected a copy of the laser PZT
signal to the 2nd scope CH2 (with AC coupling
to remove the DC offset) to be able to monitor
  
  398   Fri Feb 14 10:11:00 2025 Ronic ChicheUnder Processinfomechanics | lasers and optics | detectors and electronicsThomX igloocorrelations between accelerometer and lock losses @ 20Hzthis morning, I did some measurement with
nobody interfering with the tests.
