| * Inspected LLB in tank - in a good position, but not very clean - apparent water spots and dirt. * Found the geophone adapter plates. * Retested SF FR stepper - still good. * Finally got SF LVDT working: * Found a short in the primary coil due to Al foil used for mechanical reinforcement at vacuum feedthrough connection. * Did a full calibration and found that linear range was too small (0.75 mm!) and did not cover nominal keystone height. * Decreased gain to increase linear range. * Adjusted the height of the yoke and secondary coil unit to center the linear region around the nominal keystone height. * Implemented velocity damping. * Found all parts for the LBB and damper rings. * Cu segments and some other parts were very dirty - wiped carefully for now, but should be properly cleaned before final install. * Outrigger parts for LBB have M16 thread cut directly into Al but should have had M16 helicoils. This is a galling risk with Ag-coated rod receptacles. Hirata-san organized rework. * Some special lock nuts are in short supply and are being borrowed from supply at ATC for next batch of BFs. * Made remaining two geophone in-air descrambler cables (total three). * Installed a thermometer supplied by Kokeyama-san on the tower around the BS tank. * Prepared the SF damper. * Designed a pattern of magnets for the two-segment arrangement of SF damper and laid it out on the magnet ring with the template. * Moved the Cu segments on SF cap by 30° (the cap had not been in the right position earlier). * Reinstalled PI: * Raised the PI with the crane and hooked the SF damper ring. Some of the rods did not fit the receptacles due to tolerance issue, but by going through a large number of rods and receptacles, we found three working sets. * Craned the PI onto the frame and suspended the SF/... section, this time with the hex cable clamp on the F0-SF rod. * Tensioned the PI yaw return spring, installed (but did not cable) the yaw stepper and adjusted the yaw of the SF/... section. We worry the return spring is not stiff enough. * Installed (but did not cable) the geophones. * Recentered the IP. The extra weight from the geophones (≈42 kg) and SF damper ring (≈17 kg) had brought the IP to near the point of instability, so we removed one arc weight (≈17 kg) and rearranged the other two in the top row to be symmetrical. * Added ballast to set the height of the F0 keystone. We now have about 6 kg in hand (due to removing one of the Cu segments for the SF damper). This should be enough margin for cables, temperature fluctuations etc. |

Past week report
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Hirata-san, Yoshioka-kun):
- We reconfigured the top of the assembly frame.
- We cleaned the assembly frame, blowing dust out of the grooves and wiping all surfaces.
- We recentered the optic table in the bottom of the frame and adjusted the frame until the top was centered over the optic table. We also recentered the trolleys.
- We re-installed, centered and leveled the IM.
- We solved two issues with the new wire clamps:
- Some holes were not properly threaded - Hirata-san retapped them.
- Some locating pins were loose - we glued them.
- We mounted the BS mirror box on the trolley and brought it under the IM.
- We installed the winch system and the 300 µm wires for the BS.
- We set up the optical lever.
- Hirata-san finished the new BF. We moved the old BF out of the cleanbooth and the new one in.
