 * Type B Past Week Summary
  * There were multiple issues with the dummy BS flag/prism gluing [[http://klog.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/osl/?r=1830 |klog]]. The sapphire prisms will need to be removed and reapplied. Hirose-san is going to organize this. He is trying the cup that had been made for the PR2 on the dummy BS. Despite not having the ideal radius of curvature, it works to confine the acetone, and we will see shortly how much soaking is required to get a prism off.
  * Akutsu-san provided stainless steel mirror panels for the dummy BS made by ATC.
  * Hirata-san added the optical layout information to the BS Inventor assembly. He requested tank information from Mirapro so he can continue to do SR2/3/M.
  * Hirata-san worked on the crane height problem with Saito-sensei. They concluded that craning in the suspension is possible but will require not just the vacuum tank lid but the ≈30 cm section of tank below it to be removed.
  * Hirata-san liaised with Nakamura-san of Mirapro. Mirapro could start assembling the frame in the first week of July.
  * Hirata-san cleaned more parts and measured another filter.
  * Fabian finished the IM assembly and started on the IRM and RM. Some of the IRM panels had been improperly wrapped and will be re-cleaned. The MPC (multi-purpose cube) on the RM will need some rework.
  * Mark did a top level schedule. The BS can probably be finished roughly when promised to Ando-san earlier, but the SRs will probably take rather longer because of all the prep work that still needs to be done. It may save time overall to delay the start of the BS installation a few weeks and concentrate on parts for SR.
  * Mark released a draft (about half-finished) of [[http://gwdoc.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/cgi-bin/private/DocDB/ShowDocument?docid=4235| JGW-E1504235 - BS Installation Procedure]].
  * Mark updated [[http://gwdoc.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/cgi-bin/private/DocDB/ShowDocument?docid=3600| JGW-D1503600 - BS Suspension Cabling]] with a better arrangement for the IM and BF pico motor cables, as well as various other minor fixes.
  * Mark organized a review for Thursday 6/16.
 * Type B ongoing issues
  * Wires
   * Need to decide RM wire thickness and order BS and RM wires. Lead time is a few days from Nilaco.
  * OSEMs
   * Akutsu-san is working to get wide-mouth OSEMs
  * Longer cables for BF->PI and SF->PI.
   * Takahashi-san has ordered extra connectors (due any day) and will get a company to make the cables.
  * Feedthrough Adapters
   * Need large quantity of male and female D-Sub 9, IDC ribbon connectors - Takahashi-san is getting a quote.
  * Can we make SR wire breakers bigger?
   * Fukushima-san will start on machining test soon (as of 5/27).
  * Not enough crane height problem (Hirata, Saito) - SOLVED
  * Installation stuff
   * Crane scale - quote received
  * Ballast masses for payload
   * Initial batch received - ordered extra smaller ones to allow for adjustments.
  * Lower breadboard stuff
   * Installation to be incorporated into the procedure document. Mark/Takahashi to discuss.
   * Breadboard springs (in manufacture, expected end of July)
   * Nail-head parts: quote from Mirapro received, not urgent, will be combined with assembly frame order.
  * Documents
   * BS Assembly Procedure [[http://gwdoc.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/cgi-bin/private/DocDB/ShowDocument?docid=4235| E1504235]], [[https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=D5CCFA70A378E0D0!195&authkey=!AM_usynuo9QI57g&ithint=folder,webloc|E1504235 draft]]
=== Type B (Mark) ===
==== Past week report ====
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san):

 * 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 coming weeks ====
For more detail, see [[KAGRA/Subgroups/VIS/TypeB/ToDo]].

Weeks of 5/22, 5/29:
 * Retest SF stepper every day, to see if problems recur.
 * Find/install geophone adapter plates or improvise replacement.
 * Reinstall PI, this time with rods and damper ring.
 * Reinstall PI-SF rod, this time with hex cable clamp.
 * Cable/test PI geophones LVDTs and steppers.
 * Reinstall LBB blade units.
