11:15 SASE1/SPB called that they observed and issue with the SASE1 XGM/XTD2: about every 35 seconds the power reading jumps from 4 Watts to zero and back. It seems to be related to some automated re-scaling of the Keithlyes, which coincides. The fast signal and downstream XGMs do not show this behavior. The concern is that this may affect the the data collection later today. 

12:15 The XGM expert was informed via email, however, there is no regular on-call service today. If this cannot be fixed in the next few hours, the PRC advises to use in addition the reading of the downstream XGM for data normalisation. 

13:15 Theo fixed the problem by disabling auto-range. Needs follow-up on Monday, but for this weekend should be ok.
