==== Report for week of 6/18 ====
 * Mark checked the health of the suspensions after an earthquake on Monday morning. The BS watchdog tripped and there was a few µrad change in the pointing, but otherwise it was fine. SR3 and SR2 were also fine.
 * Mark, Enzo and Terrence finalized the trim mass on the BF to set the SF keystone height and BF pitch/roll.
 * They weighed the SF/... section. With no internal trim mass in the SF but with the flying saucer and rod, but with 2 Promec masses for rough balance, it was 255.4 kg, so allowing 1 kg for cables and fine trim mass, we would like a PI load capacity of 256.4 kg.
 * Hirata-san and Kozu-kun struggled to tune the top filter for SR3 - see klogs 5310, 5324, 5337, xxxx. At first the results were somewhat unrepeatable, with high frequency and low load capacity. This was improved by using a torque wrench (set to 50 N.m) to tighten the blade base clamp screws, retightening the blade tip screws (which had worked loose) and tightening the collar on the end of the shaft of the magic wand. Eventually ...
 * Enzo and Terrence cabled and tested the SF fishing rod, and reversed the connections on the SF LVDT actuation to bring it to standard polarity.
 * Mark and Enzo made many improvements to the Type B MEDM screens.
 * Enzo and Mark measured the BF and SF bounce frequencies (with the other keystone locked).
 * Enzo replaced a HPCD that seemed to have failed during the bounce test (but had just had a watchdog trip), and then replaced the replacement, which really did fail. It turns out we need to avoid applying more than about 25000 counts of GAS actuation.
 * Enzo offloaded the BF LVDT actuator with the BF FR to remove the need for a 10000 ct offset.
==== Report for week of 8/13 ====
 * KAGRA was closed Mon/Tue 8/13-14 due to O-Bon.
 * Enzo and team debugged an issue with height of the SR3 keystone coupling to yaw of the payload as measured by the OL. We suspect a ferromagnetic item on the SF damper, but we're not sure.

==== Report for week of 8/20 ====
===== SR3 =====
 * Hatoya-san and Enzo gathered date for a study of yaw mode Q damping time as a study of damper ring height.
===== SR2 =====
 * We continued with cabling work.
 * We configured a second pico driver and connected it.
 * We assembled the LBB damper rings in the tank, craned them to near the top and hooked them. While the tank was open we also set the jacks below the mushroom that will support the suspension to nominal height.

===== SRM =====
 * We reserved and configured two pico drivers.
 * We checked the prism gluing - all the jigs came away successfully.
 * Fabian assembled the RM.
 * Hirata-san added ballast masses to the IM and we weighed it, as well as the RM and the optic in the mirror box.
 * We suspended the optic and RM.

==== Report for week of 8/27 ====
===== SR3 =====
 * We did an inventory of arc weights to see if we had enough for SRM and found that we had only enough for a basic allocation for all of type B (172 kg for BS and 103.2 kg per SR) with almost no spare for tuning.
 * Using SR3, we did a quick study of the IP frequency as a function of the number of arc weights, to see how much more we might need. 3 pairs of small arc weights (10 mm thick, 4.53 kg each) brought the frequency below 0.1 Hz, 4 pairs made it unstable. If SR3 is typical we would need about 27 kg extra per suspension.
 * After the IP study, we left three pairs of 10 mm arc weights installed on the IP and measured the frequencies with the digital system (instead of a stopwatch).

===== SR2 =====
 * We finished routing the in-vacuum cables, and connected everything through to the rack for final testing.
 * We brought a basic 103.2 kg set of arc weights (3 large (38 mm) and 6 medium (19 mm)) into the SR2 cleanbooth.

===== SRM =====
 * Panwei calibrated 6 OSEMs to be used on the IM. Two OSEMs have a long-term drift issue and may need repair. He took some long time series to characterize the drift.
 * We brought in all the remaining arc weights from the pallet into the SRM cleanbooth, and Hirata-san cleaned up 1 large arc weight and 3 mediums left over from the BS that complete a basic set of 103.2 kg, plus about 5 kg spare. (However 27 kg of these are on loan to SR3.)
 * We assembled and installed the bottom section of the security structure under the optic and RM.
 * We set up a new OL for setting the pitch. We found the reflection off the AR surface was much weaker than for SR2 and SR3, but fortunately the HR surface is almost flat (ROC≈300 m) so we were able to use the HR reflection instead.
