| 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 |
At Kamioka (Mark, Ohishi-san, Enzo, Yoshioka-kun, Kozu-kun): * We removed the LBB damper rings from the tank and passed them to Takahashi-san for recleaning. Unfortunately two screws galled, one holding on a Cu segment, and one holding on a joint piece. * We removed the LBB blade units from the PI, removed the blades and shipped them off for rework. * We pulled out all the old in-air cabling. * We laid about 9 new in-air cables. * We wrapped/labelled the BS mirror box, the winch system, the trolley adapters, and many other tools that we do not expect to use any time soon. * We connected up, tested and calibrated the BF LVDT. * We adjusted the ballast mass on the IM to make it hang level and at the right height. However we had to reduce the weight by a further 686 g relative to the plan of 2017-08-09. We found a combination that was good except for the fact that it used round masses on the bottom corners, so we decided to have the 641 g rectangular masses cut down by 60 g each. Mesco was able to do this within 24 hours. We will reclean the parts on Friday afternoon and swap them in on Monday. ==== Plan for week of 8/21 ==== Vacation: Fabian (Mon)<<BR>> Internship: Kozu-kun (Mon-Fri)<<BR>> Kamioka: Mark, Ohishi, Fabian (Tue-Fri), Enzo, Yoshioka-kun (Tue, Wed, Fri). * Swap in new IM ballast masses; tweak height and levelness. * Install side panels of IRM and OSEMs. * Route IRM OSEM cables, test/adjust IRM OSEMs. * Add BF cap; cable and test BF-1 and BF-2 picos. * Lift and weigh BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS; adjust ballast mass. * Crane in SF. * Try TFs with optical sensors.
