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 suspended the BF and payload to check the weight and balance after adding balance mass. The weight was spot-on and the balance was OK (about as expected and close enough to be corrected). However the height and balance of the IM was disturbed again.
 * Fabian worked on the redesign of the ballast masses.
 * Hirata-san 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.
 * We worked with Sawada-san to get the wheels removed from the large stepladders so that could be put closer to the assembly frame for comfort and safety.
 * We cleaned up after a water leak from the ceiling.
 * We straightened the hexagonal poles in the bottom level of the security structure, in preparation for adding the new EQ stops for the RM.		 At Kamioka (Mark, Ohishi-san, Enzo, Yoshioka-kun):
 * We installed the cut-down ballast mass under the IM and tweaked the IM height and balance.
 * We checked the range of the BF FR.
 * We adjusted the BF yoke by 2.5 mm to make it give ≈0 output for nominal height.
 * We found a good gain setting for the LVDT driver and calibrated the BF LVDT.
 * We set up the optical sensors facing the RM.
 * We assembled the IRM (with OSEMs) around the IM and got it mostly adjusted.
 * We changed the k1visbs model to restore the as-designed mapping of OSEMs to DAQ channels.
 * We confirmed that the BF LVDT actuation coil and the TM OSEM coils were working.
 * We connected up the IRM OSEMs (with the new Type 5-1.7 cables) but found there was an electrical issue: all the OSEMs are reading back the same constant value, around 1115.
 * We left the suspension in a state suitable for TFs from BF GAS actuation to sensing (in vertical) and from RM OSEM actuation to the optical sensors (in horizontal) over the weekend.
At Mitaka (Hirata-san):
 * Hirata-san did 2D drawings of the SR LBB rods and sent off an RFQ.
 * Hirata-san did several cost-reduction negotiations with Mirapro.

==== Plan for coming weeks ====
Next week:
 * Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday.
 * Readjust height and balance of BF+payload, add SF.
 * Get picomotor driver working.
Week after next:
 * Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday.
 * Continue adding SF and suspend BF.
==== Plan for week of 8/28 ====
Kamioka: Mark (except Tue), Ohishi-san, Fabian (except Tue), Enzo (except Tue), Hirata-san, Yoshioka-kun (Fri), Kozu-kun (Thu, Fri).
 * Fix/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.
 * Suspend BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS.

==== Plan for week of 9/4 ====
 * Install SF cap; route cables.
 * Lift and weigh SF/BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS.
 * Adjust SF ballast.
