==== Past week report ====
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry, Hirata-san):

 * We cleared space for the PR2 team to remove a bellows from their tank.
 * We installed safety bars on the pillars near the assembly frame at about waist height for someone on the tall ladder. We reinforced the clamps with cable ties.
 * We bridged a gap in the second floor on the -X side of the SF2 tank with spare floor panels.
 * We removed the PI from the assembly frame.
 * We encountered a problem with the PI-SF rod jamming in the SF. We finally got it out by clamping a pair of vice grips to the rod and hammering. We found that the receptacle part was the right size (7.0 mm) but had been deformed around the edge. Hirata-san used a knife and sandpaper to lean up the edge and then ultrasonically cleaned it.
 * We removed the LLB blade units from the PI, removed the blades from the clamps and sent the blades away for more rework to fix the length problem. Fortunately the tab section at the tip is fairly long, so we can just add a second hole further from the end.
 * We tested the SR fishing rod again, but it would only go up, not down. We found that reseting the driver fixed it, but we also moved the driver boxes into the cleanbooth to reduce the length of the motor cables. (To support the drivers, we had to run some long DC and LAN cables.)
 * We adjusted the limit nut on the SF fishing rod to increase the range.
 * We debugged an issue with the SF keystone sitting lower than previously and found we had accidentally left two eyebolts on top of the BF. We retrimmed the BF/... section to reset the keystone to nominal (65.5 mm) with the fishing rod at mid-range.
 * We removed one segment of the Cu ring on the SF cap and reconfigured the other two to be symmetrical.
 * Fabian designed a layout for the SF damper ring magnets that would work with the modified Cu ring, and placed the magnets with the template. The poles of the magnets were not on the expected faces so we had to stand the magnets up, with the 12x12 faces sideways and the 10x12 mm pole faces up/down. We will need to raise the magnet ring by 2 mm to allow for the extra height.
 * Hirata-san made an adapter cable for the PI vertical LVDT to let it connect to a standard Type 1 cable.
 * Enzo made a PI yaw/vertical stepper adapter cable and a trial geophone descrambler cable (one of three).
 * We placed the geophones on the PI but discovered we didn't have some mounting brackets called out in the 3D CAD.
 * Fabian added the remaining cable clamps to the PI.
 * We found that part of the problem with the SF LVDT was that the actuation had not been enabled for SF or F0 in the real-time model. We fixed the model and are now able to drive the LVDT actuator and see input at the LVDT sensor. However there is apparently a lot of coupling directly from output to input (presumably from transformer action between the sensing and actuation coils), so we're investigating.

==== Plan for coming weeks ====
For more detail, see [[KAGRA/Subgroups/VIS/TypeB/ToDo]].

Weeks of 5/22, 5/29:
 * Retest SF stepper every day, to see if problems recur.
 * Find/install geophone adapter plates or improvise replacement.
 * Reinstall PI, this time with rods and damper ring.
 * Reinstall PI-SF rod, this time with hex cable clamp.
 * Cable/test PI geophones LVDTs and steppers.
 * Reinstall LBB blade units.
==== Report for week of 1/15 ====
 * We swapped in the other available BF, and it was rather better: only 0.3 mm of keystone tilt rather than 1.3 mm. We will use it for the SR2 and then think about whether we want to use or rebuild the original one.
 * We finished the preparation of the second BF, setting the yoke, adding the new-style cable clamps etc.
 * We changed the 1.6 mm sockets on the BF LVDT cable to 1.0 mm ones to match the pins on the LVDT wires. The specification of the cable in D1503901 was apparently wrong. We will update it (today) before doing the cable order for the SR3 and SRM.
 * We updated the BS real-time model and screens, adding support for a damping filter common to both the OL-TM and OL-IM paths, per Izumi-san's suggestion in G1807653.
 * We set up the router for the SR2 rack and got the SR2_IM pico driver and both stepper motors on the network (the SR2_BF pico is still on order).
 * We did prep for the top filter test:
  * We received, unpacked and temporarily stored a shipment of weights and other parts.
  * We removed the top crossbars from the SR3 assembly frame.
Line 38: Line 17:
 
==== Plan for week of 1/29 ====
 * Enzo at Mitaka 1/29 and most of 1/30, then vacation.
 * Kozu-kun away.
 * All others at Kamioka.
 * Make in-air pico adapter cables.
 * Test IM picos and BF yaw pico.
 * Test FR.
 * Calibrate LVDT.
 * Get screws for ballast mass from Takahashi-san.
 * Install ballast mass in BF.
 * Set up for F0 test.
  * Lower IM crossbars in SR3 assembly frame.
  * Open curtain on SR3 crane slot.
  * Set up dummy load (weight carrier, rods etc).

==== Plan for week of 2/5 ====
 * Enzo on vacation; all others at Kamioka.
 * Build IRM around IM.
 * Cable/test/adjust IM OSEMs.
 * Time permitting, do TFs from IM OSEMs to themselves and to optical sensor.

==== Plan for week of 2/12 ====
 * Enzo on vacation; all others at Kamioka.

==== Vacation Info ====
 * Enzo 1/30-2/19 (at Mitaka 1/29, part of 1/30)
