==== Report for week of 3/13 ====
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry, Hirata-san):
 * We took a full set of TFs with the BF stationary but the IRM, IM, RM and TM all hanging.
 * We marked peeling or damaged areas on the clean booth floor for Furuta-san.
 * We installed the SF, measuring its weight in the process.
 * We found the crossbars supporting the SF jacks were too high to allow the SF ring to sit on the pillars while also being partially supported by the jacks. (This was an issue with the 3D CAD - the model of the NB-01 jack had a lower minimum height than reality.) We lowered the crossbars by 5 mm and put thicker spacers (12 mm instead of 3 mm) on top of the jacks supporting the SF and everything worked well.
 * We installed newly cleaned L-brackets under the BF and SF.
 * We installed the SF-BF rod and hex cable clamp.
 * We suspended the BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS section and found it was light, presumably because it had been trimmed according to the Promec measurement of the SF, not Hirata-san's later value.
 * We added extra ballast mass corresponding to the difference and found the BF section floated at a good height.
 * We moved trim mass around on the BF until it hung level, and adjusted the IRM and OSEMs until the IRM-IM EQ stops were well-centered and all the OSEMs were centered laterally and mid-range.
 * We ran 11 extra 20-m in-air cables from the tank towards the rack. (We will need to add 10-m extensions.)
 * We connected most of the cables to the vacuum flanges with screws and anti-feedthrough adapters. (Some remain to be done.)
 * We debugged a 900 Hz ringing in the BF LVDT, which turned out to be because the damping was enabled without appropriate filters or gains.
 * We debugged excess noise in the TM-H3 OSEM, which turned out to be mostly due to a faulty cable. However we worry that some of it may be due to some extensions made of non-vacuum-compatible ribbon cable which we added because the TM-H2 and -H3 OSEM cables are too short.
 * We found nearly all the parts for the lower breadboard suspension, including the blades, blade bases, associated cable clamps etc. We also found the jigs for installing the blades.
==== Report for week of 3/21 ====
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry, Hirata-san):
 * We took a full set of TFs with the SF stationary but the BF, IRM, IM, RM and TM all hanging.
 * We also did a TF from BF LVDT actuation and confirmed that it was working.
 * We got SUMCON running on Perry's computer and worked out how to do cut-down versions of Fabian's full Type B model corresponding to the various partial configurations we have data for.		 ==== Past week report ====
At Kamioka (Mark, Ohishi-san, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san, Yoshioka-kun, Kozu-kun):
 * We put lock nuts on the F0 FR and calibrated the F0 LVDT against FR position and keystone height.
 * Enzo traced the issue with the geophones to a specific cable.
 * We measured the BF and F0 GAS resonant frequencies.
 * We adjusted the spacing of the SR damper.
 * We double-checked the BS pitch with the OL.
 * We debugged the PI yaw mechanism. We managed to get the return spring properly adjusted, but the stepper motor tends to jam because of the strange design.
 * '''We prepared the suspension for lifting and craned it into the tank.'''
 * Hirata-san fixed an issue with one of the nailheads on the LBB intermediate ring support rods not properly seating, by removing the rod and reinstalling it upside down (with the problem nailhead in a less critical position).
 * Enzo and team moved all the in-air cables from the assembly frame to the tank.
 * Fabian and Ohishi-san unlocked the bottom section of the suspension and got it hanging freely.
 
==== Plan for week of 9/25 ====
Mark, Fabian, Enzo (Mon, Tue), Ohishi-san (Tue, Fri), Hirata-san, Yoshioka-kun (Tue, Wed, Fri), Kozu-kun
 * Finish moving in-air cabling and feedthroughs and reconnect in-vacuum cables (through Cu O-rings).
 * Unlock rest of suspension and readjust.
 * Debug electronics.
 * Unclamp LBB ring "sandwich" so LBB Cu ring is suspended on upper rods.
 * Install LBB lower rods and hook LBB.
 * Adjust LBB damper Cu-magnet gap.
 * Measure required ballast for LBB.
 * Remove First Contact, try OL.
 * Prepare for SR2 work.

==== Plan for coming weeks ====
Next week:
 * Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday except for Hirata-san Wednesday-Friday).
 * Finish SF installation.
 * Finish BF cabling, hang BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS from SF and confirm weight matches load capacity.
 * Re-trim BF as necessary.
 * Get picomotor driver working.
Week after next:
 * Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday.
 * Prepare for PI installation.		 ==== Plan for week of 10/2 ====
Kamioka: Mark, Enzo, Fabian, Ohishi-san.
 * TFs etc.
Mitaka: Hirata-san?
 * SF design/purchasing.

==== Vacation Info ====
Mark: 10/16-24
Enzo: 9/27-29
