At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry, Hirata-san): At Kamioka (Mark, Ohishi-san, 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.
 * We tested the picos and most of the steppers. The picos and IP steppers all work nicely. The PI FR and yaw steppers have jamming issues. We haven't tested the BF and SF FR steppers.
 * We debugged an issue with one of the geophones (#1) which has a DC offset. We did cable swaps and determined that the issue is internal to the geophone pod. A second geophone (#2) saturates at a suspiciously small voltage on the negative side. Again the issue is internal.
At Mitaka (Fabian, Hirata-san):
 * Fabian designed an improvement to the PI yaw stepper driver mount to stop the stepper jamming.
 * Fabian worked on a plan to measure the load capacity of the SR PIs.
 * Hirata-san did 2D drawings of the PI for the SR, and of SF2 and SRM in their vacuum chambers.
 * Hirata-san did drawings if the SR LBB damper rings and asked for quotes.
 * Hirata-san asked for quotes for SR secondary wire breakers and SR IM/IRM lock screws
 * Hirata-san ordered SR IM wire clamps.
 * Hirata-san worked on parts lists for SR cable clamps.

 * Filed crane adapter ring to make it fit better on the hook.
 * Debugged the BF and SF LVDTs (the signal generator had lost its settings in the rack shutdown).
 * Debugged the TM-H4 OSEM problem (a "Type 3 extension cable had gone bad).
 * Weighed eyebolts used to lie the SF.
 * Shipped the old pico driver and joystick back to Mitaka for Eleonora.
 * Borrowed a second pico driver ("PR3") and set it and "BS" up in the rack.
 * Practiced driving the BF cap picos with the new drivers.
 * (With help from Miyo-kun) got the pico MEDM screens running.
 * Replace the temporary "PR3" driver with a new one "BS_BF", and renamed "BS" to "BS_IM".
 * Checked all the DIO connections to the LPCD and connected up the HPCDs. With help from Kokeyama-san we can now see all the drivers from EPICS.
 * Worked on balancing the BF/IRM/IM... section. Sometime during this work, the IM sank and would not come back to its proper position even with the fishing rod. We put a scale under the RM and found that the imbalance was 488 g. Using the fishing rod we got this down to 235 g, but we found that the direction of the stepper was not consistently related to the direction selected on the driver screen - we had previously noted that "left" was "up, but driving "up" the imbalance would decrease to 235 g and then start increasing again, indicating the stepper had bounced off some obstacle. (There was no obvious sound when this happened, unlike at the low end.)
 * We decided to give up on tuning the height of the IM with the fishing rod and to proceed with the test hang by locking the BF keystone at the desired height.
 * Hirata-san installed the PI fishing rod and magic wand, and did more work on changing the PI LVDT connectors from female to male.
 * Enzo made many edits to the circuit diagram, adding the DIO for the HPCDs and correcting minor mistakes.
