| At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry, Hirata-san): * We removed the BF cap to debug the stepper motor. We checked the cabling but didn't find a problem. Eventually toggling the power to the driver box seemed to fix it. * We got the wheels removed from the two tall stepladders. * We started to rebalance the IM but came to realize that it was unstable for more than trivial pitch and roll (and had been for some time). We moved trim mass from top to bottom and it became unconditionally stable. * We rebalance the IM, put back the IRM and adjusted the OSEMs. * We took a successful TF in IM-L. * We added the security structure ring for below the SF and then added the SF. We noticed the cap is on at the wrong angle (so the keystone lock screws are inaccessible) but we can easily fix that. |
At Kamioka (Mark, Ohishi-san, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san, Kozu-kun): * We couldn't count for a bubble level, so we removed a service port cover, searched again on top of the BF and found it. * We locked the LBB, put the table KOACH filters on the table. Ohishi-san removed the FC in two stages (AR side on Tue, HR side on Fri). * Ohishi-san measured the height of the SS and optic relative to the tank and found the optic was 3 mm low but the SS was 2 mm high. According to the GAS LVDTs, the suspension had not sagged but was 1.7 mm high. * Therefore we raised the suspension by 9 quarter-turns of the tank jacks (4.5 mm) to get the optic in the right position after (future) downward adjustment of the GAS filters. * We put the GAS LVDT calibration data as offsets and gains in the LVDTINF filters so the output would be height in µm relative to nominal. * We calibrated the IP LVDTs. We had worked around a mechanical interference due to the poor design of the old LVDTs by setting them to be 4 mm off-center with the IP locked centrally, but we discovered this was overkill and we have lost some linear range on the LVDT sensor in the opposite direction. If we have time we may move the LVDT bases 1-2 mm to a compromise position. * We worked with Simon to get the OL aligned and to learn the adjustment procedure. |

Past week report
At Kamioka (Mark, Ohishi-san, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san, Kozu-kun):
- We couldn't count for a bubble level, so we removed a service port cover, searched again on top of the BF and found it.
- We locked the LBB, put the table KOACH filters on the table. Ohishi-san removed the FC in two stages (AR side on Tue, HR side on Fri).
- Ohishi-san measured the height of the SS and optic relative to the tank and found the optic was 3 mm low but the SS was 2 mm high. According to the GAS LVDTs, the suspension had not sagged but was 1.7 mm high.
- Therefore we raised the suspension by 9 quarter-turns of the tank jacks (4.5 mm) to get the optic in the right position after (future) downward adjustment of the GAS filters.
- We put the GAS LVDT calibration data as offsets and gains in the LVDTINF filters so the output would be height in µm relative to nominal.
- We calibrated the IP LVDTs. We had worked around a mechanical interference due to the poor design of the old LVDTs by setting them to be 4 mm off-center with the IP locked centrally, but we discovered this was overkill and we have lost some linear range on the LVDT sensor in the opposite direction. If we have time we may move the LVDT bases 1-2 mm to a compromise position.
- We worked with Simon to get the OL aligned and to learn the adjustment procedure.
At Mitaka (Hirata-san):
- Hirata-san met with manufacturers and requested quotes.
- Hirata-san made many assembly drawings for sections of the SR.
- Hirata-san worked on compiling the SR inventory.

- TFs, final preparation for alignment in week of 10/16.
- SR procurement.
- Design ballast for LBB.
- Continue design of improved PI yaw adjustment, also improved F0 FR.
