| ==== Report for week of 5/28 ==== * Enzo tested the LVDT driver repaired by Tanaka-san - it was fine. * Fujii-kun and Enzo finished assembling a batch of 4 geophones and took test data. * Hirata-san modified some Promec masses (drilling out the threads on 2 of 4 holes) so we could use two layers of them inside the BF. * Hirata-san installed maraging rod receptacles in the LBB damper rings, and in the bottom of PIs #3 and #1 (for the SF damper rings). * After consulting with various people, Hirata-san installed the second half of the LBB top ring in the chamber, simply omitting the pillar and screw associated with the badly threaded hole. * Hirata-san took delivery of the screws for the LBB blade units, made up 9 blade units and installed 6 of them on PI #3 and #1 (for SR3 and SR2). * Hirata-san made up a set of PI cable clamps and installed them on PI #3 (for SR3). * Hirata-san removed the prototype blades from PI #3 to get ready for testing the final blades. * We located the #355 disk and #356 poles for the next level of the security structure up to the SF and installed the poles. * We installed ballast mass in the BF. After some trial and error we settled on 16 Promec masses (7.1 kg) inside the BF and 5 D1808104-4 and 3 D1808104-5 masses (540 g) on the cap. * Enzo and Fujii-kun did several rounds of TFs on the BF/... section of the suspension and debugged a problem with dewhitening filters not being installed in the OSEMINF filter bank. * Enzo installed damping filters for the IM OSEMs. ==== Plan for week of 5/28 ==== * Mark, Enzo at Kamioka Mon-Fri. * Hirata-san at Kamioka Tue-Fri. (Mon is monthly Mitaka day.) * Matteo at Kamioka from Tue. He may help Type B to get experience. * Kozu-kun at Kamioka Mon only. (Rest of week is job interviews.) * -- ==== Plan for week of 6/4 ==== * Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san, Kozu-kun at Kamioka Tue-Fri. (Mon is NAOJ medical checkup.) * -- * Cable and test BF cap picos. * Build up security structure to SF level. * Crane in SF and remove cap. * Hook BF and adjust total ballast. * Route cables through SF-BF flying saucer up to bottom of SF. * Adjust BF trim mass. * Readjust payload. * Take TFs. * Add budgeted ballast mass to SF and weigh SF/... section. * Cable, test SF LVDT and FR. * Characterize final F0 blades. ==== Plan for week of 6/11 ==== * Mark Enzo, Hirata-san, Kozu-kun at Kamioka Tue-Fri (Mon is compensation day for f2f.) * -- * Rebuild F0 #3 for SR3. * Park F0 #1 (for SR2) in top of SR3 assembly frame. * Move F0 #3 behind SR3. * Make LBB blade sets (or at least 3 of 9). |
==== Report for week of 11/19 ==== * BS * Fabian did some debugging on the BS and found that the calibration for the F0 LVDT was off due to an Excel error, and that the sag wasn't quite the 7 mm originally observed, but still enough to cause the suspension to touch down. Enzo tried applying LVDT actuation at the GAS filters and got it to lift off far enough to get sensible TFs, but the required BF offset was enough to put the IM OSEMs at the very edge of their usable range, so this is not a good long-term solution. We can probably raise the F0 keystone during the vent by removing mass and/or installing an auxiliary spring, which will then allow us to return the BF keystone to nominal height. * While working on the BS, Enzo noticed that one of the stepper drivers was not responding. It turned out to be water damaged from the rain issues earlier in the year. Enzo and Fujii-kun opened the rest of the BS chassises on the second floor but they seem to be OK. Tanaka-san had made a third driver chassis as a spare, so we reserved that and will install it in the week of 12/10. * SRM * The SRM-W optic arrived and we installed it in place of the SRM-M in the metal mass, taking care to use 1.4 mm shims as recommended by Hirose-san. The weight of the new assembly was within 1 g of the old and did not disturb the height of the payload. There was a very small change in pitch which we corrected with the IM picos. * We installed the shelf for the OL receiver. * We added the arc weights and geophones and went through several rounds of improving the centering of the IP and then realigning the security structure back to vertical. * We calibrated the F0 LVDT, and checked the F0 and IP actuation signs. * We adjusted the SF trim masses to set the SF pitch and roll, did an inventory of the trim mass and set the damper gap. * We did a final alignment of the whole chain and left the suspension ready for TFs during the f2f week. There is only a few hours of work left before we can install and we hope to do that on Monday 12/10. * SR2 * Enzo replaced the geophones and cables that had been borrowed for calibration and did several rounds of optimization of the IP frequency. He got as low as 46 mHz but with poor Q and so backed off a bit to 55 mHz and may back off a tiny bit more. * I derived updated IP matrices for the BS and SR, with more precise geometry data provided by Hirata-san, and published them as T1707205 and T1807663. * I created a CENTERING screen for the IP, with large panel meters for the LVDT signals and the derived L, T and Y signals. * Enzo confirmed that the fancy stepper control screen created by Shoda-san worked. * We installed a modified LPCD as IM-V for testing. * SR3 * We moved HPCDs from BS and SR2 to replace the ones that had been stolen from SR3, so as to create a working suspension with an OL for Kozu-kun. |

Report for week of 11/19
- BS
- Fabian did some debugging on the BS and found that the calibration for the F0 LVDT was off due to an Excel error, and that the sag wasn't quite the 7 mm originally observed, but still enough to cause the suspension to touch down. Enzo tried applying LVDT actuation at the GAS filters and got it to lift off far enough to get sensible TFs, but the required BF offset was enough to put the IM OSEMs at the very edge of their usable range, so this is not a good long-term solution. We can probably raise the F0 keystone during the vent by removing mass and/or installing an auxiliary spring, which will then allow us to return the BF keystone to nominal height.
- While working on the BS, Enzo noticed that one of the stepper drivers was not responding. It turned out to be water damaged from the rain issues earlier in the year. Enzo and Fujii-kun opened the rest of the BS chassises on the second floor but they seem to be OK. Tanaka-san had made a third driver chassis as a spare, so we reserved that and will install it in the week of 12/10.
- SRM
- The SRM-W optic arrived and we installed it in place of the SRM-M in the metal mass, taking care to use 1.4 mm shims as recommended by Hirose-san. The weight of the new assembly was within 1 g of the old and did not disturb the height of the payload. There was a very small change in pitch which we corrected with the IM picos.
