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):
 * We moved or covered stuff in the BS cleanbooth to prepare for the SR2 crane slot cutting and BS-> SR2 assembly frame move.
 * We put the service port covers back on at the BF level of the BS tank.
 * We used the PI jacks to center the bottom of the security structure around the RM.
 * We debugged a mechanical issue where the #2 IP LVDT had too narrow a gap between the moving and fixed parts, so that there was interference with only a very small clockwise yaw of the IP. We fixed it by moving the bottom baseplate (taking advantage of the fact that it was held by screws in oversize holes for this purpose).
 * We used the IP FRs to center the IP.
 * We set the gains on the IP LVDT driver.

==== 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 10/2 ====
Kamioka: Mark, Enzo (Tue-Fri), Ohishi-san, Kozu-kun.
 * Finish preparation for SR2 work.
 * Debug electronics, especially actuation.
 * Tune IP, do LVDT/stepper calibration.
 * Remove First Contact, try OL.
Mitaka: Fabian, Hirata-san
 * Design ballast for LBB.
 * Design improved PI yaw adjustment.
 * SR procurement.

==== Plan for week of 10/10 ====
Holiday Mon 10/9, Open Day prep Fri 10/13.<<BR>>
 * TFs, final preparation for alignment in week of 10/16.

==== Plan for week of 10/16 ====
Kamioka: all but Mark
 * Work with alignment team.

==== Vacation Info ====
Mark: 10/16-24
