| * Hirata-san: * Received many parts from i-ject for BFRM (took pictures and took them into ATC cleanroom). * got quotes for PRM/SRM payload from i-ject. * Checked quotes and asked for some modifications.) * Washed parts (parts for type-A, small hexagons, screws, etc\) * Wiped 9 piano wires and sent to Kamioka for PR. * pdated Fabian's EQstop parts for BS recoilmass and updated EQstop assy drawings. * Fabian * Worked out geometry for blade adjustment. * Designed additional ballast masses for BS BF (and SR). * Mark and Enzo (at Kamioka) * Did two rounds of adjustment of the blades with help from Takahashi-san (one for position, one for frequency) * Surveyed the position of the rod using the vertical mode of the bubble level. * Got apparent improvement as judged at the IRM-IM EQ stops (but still not perfect). * Did one more round of blade adjustments (without Takahashi-san) * Got good agreement with IRM-IM EQ stops, so put BF cap on and raised the whole system to check for balance. * Found balance still fairly bad: about the same on the -X,+Y diagonal and about half on the +X,+Y diagonal (70 and 30 mm worth of motion of a single trim mass respectively; previous a bit over 70 mm each). * From the imbalance torques, calculated the offset of rod as 2.3 mm in the direction 22 degrees to the +X side of -Y. * Calculated the blade adjustments required: {-0.325194, -1.79175, 2.11695} mm * Prepared to apply adjustments (removed cap etc). |
=== Type B (Mark) === ==== Past week report ==== At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san): * With help from Kokeyama-san and Miyakawa-san, we debugged a problem with the real-time model freezing, which turned out to be the IO chassis shutting down because of brownout condition from an overloaded AC circuit. A combination of extra boxes added to the rack, plus surge current from the air shower could draw the full 20 A limit of the circuit. Awai-san ran a cable to a separate circuit and we moved the IO chassis onto that. * We got the stepper motor cabling and driver working, and tested the BF fishing rod stepper motor. * We got the LVDT cabling, driver and associated parts of the real-time model working. * We found all the parts for the SF and the SF section of the security structure, and prepared the SF. However we then removed the Cu ring from the top cap for recleaning. * ==== Plan for coming weeks ==== Next week: * Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Thursday. * Work on electronics, possibly suspend and weigh BF.

Type B (Mark)
Past week report
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san):
- With help from Kokeyama-san and Miyakawa-san, we debugged a problem with the real-time model freezing, which turned out to be the IO chassis shutting down because of brownout condition from an overloaded AC circuit. A combination of extra boxes added to the rack, plus surge current from the air shower could draw the full 20 A limit of the circuit. Awai-san ran a cable to a separate circuit and we moved the IO chassis onto that.
- We got the stepper motor cabling and driver working, and tested the BF fishing rod stepper motor.
- We got the LVDT cabling, driver and associated parts of the real-time model working.
- We found all the parts for the SF and the SF section of the security structure, and prepared the SF. However we then removed the Cu ring from the top cap for recleaning.
Plan for coming weeks
Next week:
- Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Thursday.
- Work on electronics, possibly suspend and weigh BF.
Week after next:
- Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday.
- Add SF and suspend BF.
