This procedure is written for the LPL operation after the 100J upgrade. The LPL upgrade changed the beam size and relay imaging after the 1" CD amplifier. The upgraded setup employed new irises and new camera imagers for alignment checks with higher precision. The new procedure includes the hardware turn-on, the software turn-on, a new alignment routine (using imagers and irises), commands for SHG and HWP optimization, and recipes for new pulse shapes.
