==== Report for week of 7/30 ====
===== SR3 ======
 * We undid the accidental misalignment of the SR3. We also switched off the BF GAS offset we had been using, let the IM rise until near zero on the BF LVDT, and adjusted the IM vertical OSEMs back to mid-range.
 * We closed control loops for the SR3 GAS filters.
 * Terrence set up the LED and TILT QPD for the final OL, and did a new calibration.
===== SR2 =====
 * We installed the SR2 SF damper magnet ring but found that the magnet pattern didn't match the Cu segments due to a different in the caps between SR3 and SR2. We raised the ring but left it suspended, clamped the template to the underside and rearranged the magnets.
 * We did a vertical height budget of the SR2. It turns out to have a very similar issue to the SR3: the chain is about 5 mm longer than the CAD, with about 3 mm of that between the SF and BF. We decided to do the same fix and operate with the F0 keystone 5 mm higher. We chose an total amount of ballast to give that keystone height and secured most of it to the SF, keeping a reserve for cables and the yaw stepper.
 * We routed most (all?) of the SF/... cabling up to the PI.
==== 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.
Line 17: Line 13:
 * We moved the SRM assembly frame into its final position, reset it to the initial configuration, double-checked the heights of the crossbars, and lowered the optical table by 3 mm (to give margin for the optic to rise during hanging, which we had kept forgetting to do). We cleaned it up with the airgun and wet-wipes. We installed the IM ring and IM.
 * We assembled the SRM metal mass. Hirata-san made a jig from a plate with 4 screws which could safely hold the delicate front Sol-Black-coated ring upside down while the rest of the components were mounted on it.
 * We moved the metal mass to the mirror box and added the prisms and magnet standoffs. We applied the EP30 on Friday morning, but probably won't be able to check the result until after Obon.

==== Plan for week of 8/13 ====
 * KAGRA closed Mon, Tue.
 * Mark on vacation Mon-Thu, then Mitaka on Friday.
 * Enzo, Fabian, Terrence, Panwei, Rikako at Kamioka Wed-Fri. Probably no tunnel work.
 * Hirata-san on vacation all week.
 * TFs with new OL.
 * Controls work.
 * Tune SR3 IP?

==== Plan for week of 8/20 ====
 * Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san, Fabian, Kozu-kun, Terrence, Panwei at Kamioka Mon-Fri.
 * Enzo, Hirata-san, Fabian, Kozu-kun, Terrence, Panwei at Kamioka Mon-Thu, then f2f.
 * Kozu-kun works at Mozumi Mon.

===== SR3 =====
 * Hook LBB, add ballast mass.
 * Tune IP.
 * 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.
Line 40: Line 21:
 * Adjust ballast/trim mass, with reserve for yaw stepper.
 * Cable/test PI items (LVDTs, steppers, geophones).
 * Set damper height.
 * Add arc weights, adjust IP.
 * Stage LBB damper rings in tank.
 
 * 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 10/15 ====
 * Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san and Fabian at Kamioka Mon-Fri.
===== SR2 =====
 * Continue shakedown of PI section.
Line 47: Line 29:
 * Check gluing result - redo if necessary.
 * Assemble RM.
 * Add IM ballast masses (we forgot this before).
 * Get parts from AOL and set up new pitch-setting OL.
 * Hang metal mass.
 * Hang RM.
 * Align IRM with IM.
 * Suspend/weigh/balance the BF/... section.
 * Build up the AF and SS to the SF level.
 * Install the SF.

 * Hirata-san: 8/13-17
 * Terrence: 8/24-26 f2f, then returns to Hong Kong.
