SASE1 bunch number was reduced to 10 pulses for no obvious reason.
Traced it back to a malfunctioning of the watchdog for the solid attenuator (see attached error message)
Deacttivated the watchdog for SASE1 solid attenuator. Re-activated it again.
Issue: SASE1 (SPB?) was requesting 200 pulses at 6 keV with full power with all solid attenuators in the beam. This was a potentailly dangerous situation for the solid attnenuator (!)
After that the team left to go home. Nobody is available at FXE. Set pulse number to 1.
Checked status of solid attenuator. Seems that plate 1&2 have some vertical cracks (see attached picture)
