8:30: start of calibration unit activity, spots are already in LGSW

HEXA X Y Z Rx Ry
  -5.02 -7.27 4.38 -365 135

We close the loop without disturb, using TCoG48, and we acquire the new position of the Hexapod once the 3 LGS are centered on the FoV minimizing the tilt on the 3 subaps patterns:

DoF X Y Z Rx Ry
HEXA -5.02 -7.27 4.33 -363 139
TS offload 0.0 0.0 -0.05 1.64 4.10

We switch on the on-axis surce, lamp steps @ 55

We load the pupil target 20141126_183730 and we close the pupil loop.

TN Notes
20141127_170653  
20141127_170734

We set the jitter loop gain to 0.01 and we close

Pupil PI X PI Y
Blue -0.83 2.30
Yellow -1.20 -0.85
Red 2.40 -1.80

TN Notes
20141127_173430 Jitter is drifting because the TT loop is also closed on LGSW
20141127_173613

PBL with DSM: when we send the closeAO command the shell RIPs because of housekeeping errors... Probably related to ARGOS Arbitrator connection through ICE interface.

We build a mixed FLAO - ARGOS reconstructor.

Combined reconstructor with FLAO BIN2

COMB REC TAG ARGOS REC FLAO REC COMB REC
TCoG48 + bin2 20141126_215200 20130916_221257 20141127_180600

FLAO - 20130916_221257 20141127_200600

Combined RECs test

We close the loop with TCoG48 bin2 REC, PCL, JOL, FLAO is running at 200Hz

20141127_190302

We activate the TS loop, REC for TS is Rec_20130916_221257_argos.

TN Notes
20141127_192528 G=0.5,0.4,0.3, stage Z = 36mm
20141127_192921 stage Z = 33mm, modulation = 5V
20141127_193142 modulation = 4V

We try to stabilize the PSF on CCD47, we have to rise the TT gain up to 20!

TN Notes
20141127_195627 G=20.0,0.4,0.3

PBL with DSM: having restarted the Arbitrator and closing again the AO loop the shell RIPs again for housekeeping error...

PBL with BCU it stacks when framerate is > 500Hz...

Pupil PI X PI Y
Blue -1.61 0.41
Yellow -0.63 -2.53
Red -1.22 -2.20

Now we move the FLAO Z stage @ 42mm and we close the AO loop just on FLAO. Since the FLAO slopes are still passing through the ARGOS BCU also this loop is running at 500Hz.

We close the TT loop on FLAO bin4 @ 250Hz with TS and ARGOS correcting 150 modes. Stage Z is at 28.5mm.

20141127_232118 G=6.0.4,0.4, Gj=0.5

We ramp up the jitter gain up to 0.7 and then we brake everything...

We restart with PCL and JCL, AO loop is open disturb = 1.6":

Rotation of PatCams interaction matrices

Since the 3 Patrol Cameras have been dismounted after the August LGSW removal we have measured the new orientation:

PatCam Mar Nov Delta
Blue 0 184 +184
Yellow -150 -158 -8
Red 160 170 +10

So we restored the March reconstructors for LM1-PatCam and periscope-PatCam algorithms and we applied a rotation:

Algo Mar Nov (cwise) Nov (ccwise)
LM1 20140323_033220 20141128_021900 20141128_ 025000
