On-call intervention (General)bulten - 15:34 Tuesday 14 October 2025 (67937)
Print this reportSDB2 microspring adjustmentAfter changes on the photodiodes on SDB2, the DC position of the SDB2 bench changed. The operator asked me to intervene. I first restarted the SDB2_LC process, since the ADC signals for the LVDTs of the bench were not arriving. After restart, SDB2_LC process went green and the angular loop could be closed. Without control of the suspension, the equilibrium point was shifted a bit, about 0.6 mm in z, 0.3 mm in x (bench), and 300 microrad in Filter-0 Ty (changed the offset accordingly). vertically the bench was only 0.2 mm up so the load did not change, but maybe the pull from cables or some slight shift of mass on the bench introduced a small horizontal pull. Bench is locked and performs fine (nominal noise for good weather as far as I can see, RMS < ~ 0.01 microrad in Tx,Ty and Tz).
