==== 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 10/8 ==== * This was Panwei's last week (for now at least) - thanks for all the help! * Thanks also to Terrence for visiting again for the week. ===== SR3 ===== * Terrence and Mark finished setting up the LEN half of the OL (Simon had roughly placed the components). They ran a new cable for LEN in the cable tray and relaid the cable for TILT to get it off the floor. * Terrence worked on diagonalizing the LEN OL. A report is forthcoming. ===== SRM ===== * Mark installed a pair of power supplies in the SRM and copied settings across to the SRM real-time model. * Fabian did lots of rack cabling, including installing and connecting BIO cards. * Mark and Hirata-san checked and adjusted the pitch of the BF (with a bubble level) and the IM/... section (with the OL). * Mark and Panwei installed the sides of the IRM and the IM OSEMs. * Hirata-san hung the dummy load from the F0 and started compressing the blade. There was a significant lateral offset (≈2-3 mm towards the blade at 5:30) at first but Takahashi-san advised that it would probably improve with compression, and it did. * Mark and Hirata-san cleared off most of two optical tables and a set of shelves in the OMMT area that Type B had been using but were now required by Somiya-san and Ohishi-san. We still need to remove the geophone and OSEM testing setups. |

===== SR2 ===== * Mark, Enzo and Hirata-san all inspected the lower section of the SR2 to see if there were any interference points that might explain some unexpected peaks in the TFs (especially the RM pitch made appearing in longitudinal) that weren't present before installation. There were no stops touching, but some TM OSEM cables were rubbing against each other, which we fixed. The problem turned out to be swapped cables in the coil actuation. * We removed the tank lid, and Enzo and Panwei inspected the cabling that had been done during Enzo's vacation and installed some new cables that had arrived. They also unlocked the IP. |

==== 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. ===== F0/LBB Stuff ===== * Finalize PI #1 for SR2; crane into SR2 cleanbooth. * Remove SR3 tank lid, crane LBB rings to top of lower half of the tank, clamp in position. * Set tank jacks to nominal height. * Clear space for PI #2 (SRM) work. ==== Plan for week of 7/16 ==== * Monday 7/16 is Sea Day. * Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san, Kozu-kun, Terrence at Kamioka Tue-Fri. ===== Main Sequence ===== * Lock suspension. * Crane into tank. * Unlock suspension. * Rearrange cables. * Test. ===== F0/LBB Stuff ===== * Install correct IP in PI #2. * Crane PI #2 to second floor. * Rebuild top filter of PI #2. |
==== Plan for week of 10/15 ==== * Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san and Fabian at Kamioka Mon-Fri. ===== SR2 ===== * Continue shakedown of PI section. ===== SRM ===== * Align IRM with IM. * Suspend/weigh/balance the BF/... section. * Build up the AF and SS to the SF level. * Install the SF. |

Report for week of 10/8
- This was Panwei's last week (for now at least) - thanks for all the help!
- Thanks also to Terrence for visiting again for the week.
SR3
- Terrence and Mark finished setting up the LEN half of the OL (Simon had roughly placed the components). They ran a new cable for LEN in the cable tray and relaid the cable for TILT to get it off the floor.
- Terrence worked on diagonalizing the LEN OL. A report is forthcoming.
SRM
- Mark installed a pair of power supplies in the SRM and copied settings across to the SRM real-time model.
- Fabian did lots of rack cabling, including installing and connecting BIO cards.
- Mark and Hirata-san checked and adjusted the pitch of the BF (with a bubble level) and the IM/... section (with the OL).
- Mark and Panwei installed the sides of the IRM and the IM OSEMs.
- Hirata-san hung the dummy load from the F0 and started compressing the blade. There was a significant lateral offset (≈2-3 mm towards the blade at 5:30) at first but Takahashi-san advised that it would probably improve with compression, and it did.
- Mark and Hirata-san cleared off most of two optical tables and a set of shelves in the OMMT area that Type B had been using but were now required by Somiya-san and Ohishi-san. We still need to remove the geophone and OSEM testing setups.
SR2

There were no stops touching, but some TM OSEM cables were rubbing against each other, which we fixed. The problem turned out to be swapped cables in the coil actuation.
- We removed the tank lid, and Enzo and Panwei inspected the cabling that had been done during Enzo's vacation and installed some new cables that had arrived. They also unlocked the IP.
Plan for week of 10/15
- Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san and Fabian at Kamioka Mon-Fri.
SR2
- Continue shakedown of PI section.
SRM
- Align IRM with IM.
- Suspend/weigh/balance the BF/... section.
- Build up the AF and SS to the SF level.
- Install the SF.
