| * Hirata-san: * Did drawings of SR damper. * Mark, Fabian, Enzo and Hirata-san (at Kamioka): * Took the end plate off the IM to get access to the pitch/roll picos. * Found the pitch pico was unreliable and replaced it. * Found the springs were not stiff enough, and immobilized 7 turns at the end of each with Cu wire to make them stiffer. * Reassembled and rebalanced the IM. * Reassembled and adjusted the IRM. * Discovered that the transverse offset between IRM and IM could be corrected by adjusting the roll of the BF. * Adjusted IM OSEMs to half-way. * Made and installed a new pair of wires for the BF yaw pico on the IM pico adapter (Hirata-san). * Installed an improved LVDT cable made by Hirata-san. * Made and hung posters for the Elites meeting visitors. |

Past week report
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san):
- We improvised a solution for ballast mass on the BF, using some heavy dog clamps meant for pedestals, washed and wrapped in foil. We we use them for the duration of the BS Test Hang and then swap them out for custom masses.
- We rearranged the BS rack, closing the gaps between boxes (per request of Miyakawa-san. We also renumbered some boxes, connectors and cables so as to use zero-based numbering (#0, #1, #2,...) throughout.
- We routed the OSEM cables into the external cable rack (rather than through the PR2 area).
- We connected up the BF LVDT, and BF fishing rod stepper motor.
- We installed a signal generator for the LVDT.
- We connected the super motor driver box to the Internet and attempted to set it up, but with no success so far.
- We found the final picomotor driver (we have been using the one from TAMA in the clean booth).
- We found many items that we will need soon, including the copper ring for the SF.
- We found issues with the digital system (the computer driving the rack had been changed from k1pr2 to k1bs, which causes problems) and worked with DGS to fix them. It now mostly works but the real-time model crashes from time to time.
Plan for coming weeks
- Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) next week at Kamioka
