==== Past week report ====
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry, Hirata-san):
==== Report for week of 3/12 ====
 * We helped Mirapro close up the BS tank, and did last minute checks and adjustments, including using the fishing rods to reset the GAS keystones to mid-range according to the LVDTs. (The F0 had risen so far (≈7 mm) due to temperature changes that it was touching the upper keystone stop screws and defeating the vibration isolation. We operated the F0 FR manually while the tank lid was off.)
 * We installed electronic boxes in the SR3 and SRM racks. Enzo set the phases and gains on the LVDT drivers for both racks. Rack internal cabling and in-air cabling to SR3 still needs to be done.
 * Hirata-san disassembled two BFs (one SF BF with a tilted keystone and the BS Test Hang BF) and characterized all 10 available SR BF blades. He found they fell into a group of 6 strong ones and a group of 4 weak ones, so he divided the 6 into two matched sets and rebuilt the two filters. They still need final adjustment.
 * We noticed that the bottom level of SR2 suspension had developed a significant yaw (enough to foul on the security structure), probably introduced when we picked the chain up to weigh it, so we lifted the suspension again and corrected it.
 * We aligned the SR2 ready for TFs. We noticed that the IM/... section had a noticeable roll (≈20 mrad) but we were unable to correct it with the IM roll pico (the pico runs but the roll does not change, probably because there is too much friction for the mass return spring). We will see if the TFs look OK and then decide whether to try correcting the roll.
 * We gathered items for OSEM assembly by Enzo, Shoda-san and others at Mitaka next week, and for geophone assembly by Fujii-kun and Kozu-kun at Kamioka. Hirata-san ordered some M8x35 screws that we didn't have enough of.
 * Hirata-san packed up two SF caps (the original one from the SR2 SF) and a spare, for remachining by Mirapro. He also packed up the dummy BS and arranged for Ishizaki-san to take it to Mitaka for soaking off of the sapphire prisms.
 * Blade bases promised for delivery did not show up.
Line 9: Line 16:
 * 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.
==== Plan for week of 3/19 ====
 * Fujii-kun joins.
 * Mark at LVC meeting
 * Fujii-kun at Kamioka (including Wed 3/21)
 * Kozu-kun at Kamioka Mon-Tue.

 * SR2 TFs and control loop development (Shoda-san and Enzo).
 * Assemble four geophone pods (Fujii-kun and Kozu-kun at Kamioka).

 * Make last in-air pico adapter cable (Enzo).
 * Make three in-air stepper splitter cables for SR2, SR3 and SRM (Enzo).
