| * 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, Perry, Hirata-san): * We removed the BF cap to debug the stepper motor.

Type B (Mark)
Past week report
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry, Hirata-san):
- We removed the BF cap to debug the stepper motor. We checked the cabling but didn't find a problem. Eventually toggling the power to the driver box seemed to fix it.
- We got the wheels removed from the two tall stepladders.
- We started to rebalance the IM but came to realize that it was unstable for more than trivial pitch and roll (and had been for some time). We moved trim mass from top to bottom and it became unconditionally stable.
- We rebalance the IM, put back the IRM and adjusted the OSEMs.
- We took a successful TF in IM-L.
- We added the security structure ring for below the SF and then added the SF. We noticed the cap is on at the wrong angle (so the keystone lock screws are inaccessible) but we can easily fix that.
Plan for coming weeks
Next week:
- Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday except for Hirata-san Wednesday-Friday).
- Finish SF installation.
- Finish BF cabling, hang BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS from SF and confirm weight matches load capacity.
- Re-trim BF as necessary.
- Get picomotor driver working.
Week after next:
- Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday.
- Prepare for PI installation.
