| ==== Report for week of 7/2 ==== * We double-checked the bounce frequency and it was indeed around 0.5 Hz with the CuBe auxiliary spring installed. * We prepared (but did not yet install) 6 arc weights for tuning the IP. * We unlocked the security structure from the assembly frame, and raised the whole system on the top jacks. We then unlocked the IP and adjusted the leveling so the IP was centered. We then had to loosen two of the poles at the top level of the security structure to make it vertical again, because it turns out that the jack receptacles (which also serve as the IP leg bases) are welded at very uneven depths in the bottom surface of the PI, so the IP and the bottom surface can't be level at once. * We debugged an issue with the height of the payload. It turns out that due to a buildup of errors (especially an extra 3 mm between the SF and BF), the payload is some 5-6 mm low with the F0 keystone at CAD height. Since the frequency is roughly independent of height around 0.5 Hz, we decided to go with a higher F0 keystone. * Enzo and Eleonora routed all the SF/... cables up to the PI. * We found we needed 4.7 kg of extra mass to get the desired keystone height, so we decided to put the third Cu segment (3.3 kg) back on, purely as ballast. * We put some extra small masses on the SF cap to level it. The suspension is now fully ballasted and trimmed except for 1 Promec mass (455 g) standing in for the new PI yaw stepper motor assembly (estimated 330 g) which is yet to arrive. * We took all the SR sat amps back to Mozumi to get new capacitors installed, and grabbed three spares for use while that is being done. * We investigated and documented Tanaka-san's watchdog for the BS, to see if the BIO Converter chassis that it uses could also drive reset lines for stepper motor driver boxes. * Hirata-san and Terrence characterized the last 4 F0 blades. * Hirata-san and Terrence installed blades in the top filter for SR2 and tuned it to 0.5 Hz (with the CuBe auxiliary spring) over three rounds of compression. |
==== Report for week of 9/24 ==== * Monday 9/24 was a holiday (Autumn Equinox). ===== SR2 ===== * We moved all the SR2 feedthrough and in-vacuum and in-air cables. * We tested all the OSEMs and most of the LVDTs. We still need to run power to the pico drivers, and test them and the steppers. * We unlocked and mostly realigned the suspension. The IM is sitting lower than before but can be brought up to nominal height with BF GAS offset, without any signs of anything touching. The IM also has a moderately large pitch (2.8 mrad according to the OSEMs, about 1 mrad according to the OL) and some roll, which we expect to be able to correct with some pico adjustment. The horizontal IM OSEMs are well-centered (so there is no yaw misalignment). |

| ===== SRM ===== * We made another attempt to set the pitch of the SRM, but weren't satisfied with how close we were able to get (target 20 mm low, achieved 23 mm), so we didn't tighten the clamps or continue to setting the pitch of the RM. |

| ==== Plan for week of 7/9 ==== * Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san, Kozu-kun, Terrence at Kamioka Mon-Fri. ===== Main Sequence ===== * Check/restore alignment of payload, especially optic pitch. * Install and cable geophones. * Install arc weights. * Tune IP. * Install, cable PI yaw stepper. * Make three in-air stepper splitter cables for SR2, SR3 and SRM. * Calibrate PI LVDTs and FRs. * Cabling, testing, TFs. |
==== Plan for week of 10/1 ==== * Mark, Hirata-san, Fabian, Panwei at Kamioka Mon-Fri. ===== SRM ===== * Set pitch of SRM and RM, tighten clamps, remove winch system. * Weigh IM/... section. * Build up SS to BF level. * Add BF. * Suspend IM and tweak height/balance. * Cable/test BF. * Install IRM. * Install/cable/test IM OSEMs. |
