==== 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.

===== SRM =====
 * 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.
 * Fabian monitored suspensions during the vent.
 * Terrence and Mark made lots of changes to the Guardians and RTMs:
  * Added UI to take snapshots with ALIGNED/MISALIGNED channels (for late use by Guardian).
  * Changed "IM1" and "IM2" in channel names to "IMV" and "IMH"; also "DIO" and "BO" -> "BIO".
  * Created library blocks for BIO and made all the Type B models use them.
  * Tweaked the control topology to be more LIGO-style: the error signal for DC control is sensor-setpoint (not setpoint-sensor as in many controls textbooks); the input to the damping block is the uninverted sensor signal(s); there is a hard-wired -1 after the damping block representing default negative gain.
 * Fabian went inside the SRM chamber and diagnosed the problem that had appeared shortly before vent. It turned out to be yaw of the IP causing a payload cable to touch. He fixed it with the F0 yaw stepper. (He had tried this earlier without success but it turned out the problem was another dead output on the stepper driver.)
 * Terrence traced the geophone issue to a group of dead channels (#20-23) on the AA chassis. We tried replacing the chassis and it fixed not only the geophone issue but an issue in the TILT OL path (#24-27) that we had planned to debug next.
 * We retested the BIO for stepper remote enable system and this time it was working (probably due to the refactoring of the BIO stuff in the model and/or all the restarts).
 * We rebuilt all the IOP models after removing an unneeded ADC1 block (corresponding to hardware that Yoshizawa-san had removed).
 * Enzo and Terrence wrote Python scripts to automate the process of adapting the control filters to the new topology (where the DAMP and DCCTRL functions are in parallel instead of series).
==== Plan for week of 3/4 ====
 * Enzo at Mitaka.
 * Mark, Fabian Mon-Wed (Thu is farewell party).
 * Final tweaks of SRM?
 * Monitor (re-)pumpdown.
 * Tests of new Guardian.
 * Final test of stepper remote enable system (someone in cleanroom checks the lights go on/off).
 * Continue monitoring SRM yaw drift.
 * Setup SRM and SR3 LEN OLs.
 * Work on Type B paper.

==== 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.

===== SR2 =====
 * 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.
 
===== SRM =====
 * 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.
