==== Past week report ====
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san):		 ==== Report for week of 1/29 ====
 * Mark made two sets of in-air pico splitter cables (each with a triple for IM and a double for BF) for SR2 and SR3.
 * Fabian, Hirata-san and Kozu-kun worked on cabling and testing the IM pitch/roll/yaw picos, the BF FR and the BF LVDT. The LVDT connections were initially unreliable and Hirata-san had to redo the pins on the coil wires.
 * Fabian installed ballast masses in the BF.
 * Mark worked on schedule.
 * Mark did inventory of the stepper motor drivers (many were not accounted for on the wiki and/or JGWDoc and one is missing) and reserved two for SR3.
Line 9: Line 13:
 * 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.		 ==== Plan for week of 2/13 ====
 * No work Monday (建国記念の日の振替休日)
 * Enzo on vacation
 * Hirata-san at Mitaka Tue, Wed (to receive and wash parts).
 * Shoda-san at Mitaka
 * All others at Kamioka.

 * Build IRM around IM.

Weeks of 5/22, 5/29:

 * Reinstall PI-SF rod, this time with hex cable clamp.
 * Cable/test PI geophones LVDTs and steppers.
