==== Report for week of 7/9 ====
 * We cleaned up after the heavy rain. There was no significant damage but some cardboard boxes of parts got wet and the contents needed to be moved to other containers and the boxes discarded. Water collected on the SR2 crane slot cover and had to be vacuumed away before the cover could be opened. A new section of corrugated roof was installed to minimize the problem for the future.
 * Enzo and team got all of the in-vacuum and in-air cables for the SF/... and PI properly routed and tested except (so far) for the geophones.
 * Hirata-san and team finished tuning of the F0 for SR2 and moved the PI into the SR2 cleanbooth. It turns out to be about 8 kg weaker than for SR3, whereas the SR2 chain is only 3 kg lighter, so we will have to do some combination of decompression, removing Cu segments and using a stronger CuBe spring (e.g., a Type A F0 FR blade instead of the F2 one in SR3). We closed the floor in the SRM area for safety, but we will probably reopen it as soon as next week for the SRM F0 build.
 * Hirata-san opened the SR3 tank, craned the LBB damper ring sandwich up to the top of the tank and suspended it.
 * Enzo and team corrected a lot of flipped connections on the SR3 PI LVDTs (primary<->secondary on the horizontal, primary<->actuation on the F0).
 * We added the arc weights and geophones and re-centered the IP. It seems stable and very soft, which is good.
==== 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.

==== Plan for week of 7/9 ====
==== 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 =====
 * Check/restore alignment of payload, especially optic pitch.
 * Testing, TFs.
 * Lock suspension.
 * Crane into tank.
 * Unlock suspension.
 * Rearrange cables.
 * Test.
==== 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.
Line 27: Line 18:
===== F0/LBB Stuff =====
 * Install correct IP in PI #2.
 * Crane PI #2 to second floor.
 * Rebuild top filter of PI #2.
===== 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.

==== Plan for week of 9/3 ====
 * Mark, Fabian, Kozu-kun, Panwei at Kamioka Mon-Fri.
 * Enzo at Kamioka Mon-Thu.
 * Hirata-san at Kamioka Tue-Fri.
 * Crane inspection Mon/Wed mornings.
 
===== SR2 (highest priority) =====
 * Connect cables through to rack.
 * Check/tweak alignment of chain.
 * Add arc weights (103 kg) and geophones - check IP.
 * Go/no-go test of electronics.
 * Crane in SR2.

===== SRM (lower priority) =====
 *
===== Etc =====
 * Prepare for scheduled power outage on 9/10.

==== Plan for week of 9/10 ====
 * Monday 9/10 is scheduled power outage.
 * Mark in US (job interview).
 * Hirata-san, Fabian, Kozu-kun, Panwei at Kamioka Tue-Fri.
 * Enzo at Kamioka Tue-Thu, then JPS Meeting Fri, then vacation.
===== Etc =====
 * Recover from power outage.
===== SRM (highest priority) =====
 * Set pitch of SRM and RM, tighten clamps, remove winch system.
 * Weigh IM/... section.
 * Build up SS to BF level.
 * Suspend IM and tweak height/balance.
