At Kamioka (Enzo):
 * Enzo (with help from Miyo-kun) fixed the broken actuation coil on PI LVDT #0.
 * Enzo worked on the final cabling plan for BS and SRx.
 * Enzo replaced the LVDT driver again to have one with no dead channels (and free up the partly non-working cards for servicing).
At Kamioka (Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san, Yoshioka-kun):
 * We disassembled the suspension.
  * We removed all the cables and bagged and labelled them for reuse.
  * The PI is parked on the pallet.
  * The SF was initially parked between the frame and tank and then manhandled to one side. The same procedure was used for the SF ring.
  * The BF was parked between the assembly frame and tank. The BF ring was stored in the top of the structure.
  * We removed various useful and no-longer-needed items from the BF, including the lower rod receptacle, thrust bearing, fishing rod and temporary ballast masses.
  * We cut the wires and removed the RM and dummy BS on the RM trolley.
 * The wire clamps were moderately deeply scarred and could probably be reused, but we plan to use the new set, which will be available on Tuesday of next week.
 * We discovered that the problem with the old BF was due to the fishing rod, which had not had a pair of lock nuts and had been damaged by being drive too high, so that the springs hit the underside of the cap and were bent at the base. We will install lock nuts and set them to the correct height for the final installation.
 * The gluing of the BS primary prisms and magnets went well, but we had to reglue the secondary prisms because they stuck to the jigs and were pulled off when the jigs were retracted. The second try went well and the BS is ready for use.
 * Fabian and Hirata-san characterized 7 new BS BF blades. There was one outlier but the rest were in a tight group.
 * Hirata-san used 3 of the blades to build a new BF.
 * Miyo-kun and others from the Type Bp team did a lot of tidying up of the BS rack for us, and removed a lot of in-air cables running through the cleanbooth. When he returns, on 8/8, Enzo will coordinate relaying the cables in the cable trays (which were not installed when the initial cabling was done).
Line 12: Line 22:
At Mitaka and Kashiwa (Mark, Hirata-san, Fabian, Enzo):
 * We glued magnets into their holders.
 * We did a walk-through of the gluing procedure at Mitaka and discovered that the secondary prisms were missing.
 * We took the mirror box and gluing tools to Kashiwa to do as much of the gluing as possible.
 * Hirose-san applied First Contact to the BS and he and Kieran moved it into the mirror box.
 * We practiced putting sapphire prisms on the BS but didn't apply glue.
 * We tried the magnet gluing jigs designed by Aso-san and found two major issues: the overall length was about 25 mm too long, and there was no adjustment to allow for the wedge.
 * We designed a simple modification to the jigs that hopefully would be trivial for the ATC to do: the jigs will be cut in half and the bottom section will be mounted with adhesive on an 11 mm rod that slides in the central hole of the top section. Thus the top half can be screwed into the existing recess, and the bottom half with the magnets and glue can be allowed to drop about 3 mm onto the face of the optic. Hirata-san worked with ATC to get this done and it should be ready today (Friday 7/7).
 * Hirata-san also got ATC to make some jigs to hold the old 5-mm prisms so that they can be ground down to 3 mm to replace the missing ones. Hirata-san will do the grinding himself today (Friday 7/7/).
 * We decided to continue the gluing work at Kamioka, so we brought the BS back to Mitaka and will ship it on to Kamioka next Tuesday.
 * Hirata-san did a version of the 3D CAD with the as-built BS Test Hang configuration.

==== Plan for weeks of 7/10, 7/17 ====
Mark, Enzo mostly at Kamioka.
 * More TFs.
 * Receive BS at Kamioka, do gluing if possible.
 * Learn how Miyo-kun's pico driver software works and make fixes/improvements.
 * Test picos and steppers more fully.
 * Finish tidying rack and labeling cables.
 
  
Fabian, Hirata-san at Mitaka.
 * Do new 3D CAD (Hirata-san):
  * SR2 on BS assembly frame. (Adjust jack positions if possible, or leave for Fabian/Mark to do.)
  * Final BS build, SS/PI/SF as for Test Hang but with BF/IRM/IM/BS/RM down rotated back to original direction.
   * On-assembly-frame version. (Adjust jack positions if possible, or leave for Mark to do.)
   * In-tank version.
 * Solve arc weight versus magic wand problem.
 * Do mass budget for LBB - design ballast masses (Fabian)
 * Run TFs, make improvements to real-time model (Mark, Enzo).
 * Design SR assembly frame.
 * Inventory for SR.
