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, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san, Yoshioka-kun, Kozu-kun):
 * We disconnected the SF/... section and reinstalled the F0-SF rod with the hex cable clamp attached.
 * We debugged an issue with the actuation (the real-time model needed rebooting).
 * We routed all the SF/... cables up to the bottom of the PI, and then to the feedthroughs.
 * We unlocked the F0 keystone and experimented to find the amount of mass needed on the SF (≈845 g).
 * We attached the SF trim mass, adjusting it laterally so that the SF was level in pitch and roll.
 * We corrected some errors on the MEDM screens (some broken links and Take/Restore Safe.snap buttons).
 * We cabled all the PI items through to the rack and did very basic testing.
 * We disconnected the security structure from the assembly frame and adjusted the PI till the SS was vertical.
 * We unlocked the IP and adjusted the PI jacks and FRs till the IP was centered.
 * We passed the halves of the LBB Cu damping ring (less the Cu) into the chamber and joined them.
 * We put the magnets on the LBB damper ring using the template.
 * We locked various combinations of keystones and measured the vertical resonance frequencies of the unlocked filters.
 * We spent time on getting the geophones working. The original descrambler adapters had gone missing, so Enzo created three new ones. We borrowed a cable to replace one that had broken. The geophone distributor (S1402167) failed (no power on the negative rail), and a replacement borrowed from SR3 (S1605513) kept switching off.

==== 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.
