==== 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.

==== 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 the 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.

===== SRM =====
 * We reserved and configured two pico drivers.
 * We checked the prism gluing and 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 for more investigation with the digital system (instead of a stopwatch). ''RESULTS.''

===== 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.
 * 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.
 * ''We set the pitch of the SRM and RM and tightened the wire clamps.''

==== Plan for week of 9/3 ====
 * Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san, Fabian, Kozu-kun, Panwei at Kamioka Mon-Fri.
 * (Mark possible trip to LIGO Hanford - TBD.)
===== SR2 =====
 * Crane in SR2.
 * Move SR2 in-air cables.
 * Remove First Contact. ''DO WE NEED TO GET THE DUCT MOVED FIRST???''
 * Unlock and realign payload.

===== SRM =====
 *
===== Etc =====
 * Prepare for scheduled power outage on 9/10.

==== Plan for week of 9/10 ====
 * Monday 9/10 is scheduled power outage.
 * Mark, Hirata-san, Fabian, Kozu-kun, Panwei at Kamioka Tue-Fri.
 * Enzo at Kamioka Tue-Thu, then JPS Meeting Fri, then vacation.
 * (Mark possible trip to LIGO Hanford - TBD.)
 * Recover from power outage.

==== Plan for week of 9/17 ====
 * Monday 9/17 is holiday (Respect for the Aged Day).
 * Enzo on vacation.
 * Mark, Hirata-san, Fabian, Kozu-kun, Panwei at Kamioka Tue-Fri.

==== Plan for week of 9/24 ====
 * Monday 9/24 is holiday (Autumn Equinox).
 * Mark, Hirata-san, Fabian, Kozu-kun, Panwei at Kamioka Tue-Fri.
==== Report for week of 11/12 ====
 * BS
  * Kozu-kun noticed the BS OL was out of range, and Fabian and Fujii-kun investigated. It turns out that the temperature has risen by over 2°C, so all the GAS filters have sagged and several stages are touching. Miyoki-san and Furuta-san are looking at what can be done.
  * We ordered three more geophone cables in the standard (non-flipped pinout) to save time during the December vent, where we will replace at least two of the preamps to fix issues and take the opportunity to put in non-flipped ones.
 * SRM
  * We cabled all the SF/... through to the rack and checked that all items worked.
  * We did the vertical height survey and found that as with SR2 and SR3, the chain is longer than the CAD, this time by ≈7 mm, and again mostly between the SF and BF. We decided on a keystone height of 11.5 mm (5 mm higher than CAD), which can be achieved with 1 kg more on the SF and 1 kg in reserve for a yaw stepper mechanism. We reset the height of the yoke to give near-zero LVDT output for the new nominal height, and corrected the sensing and actuation signs, but still need to do the calibration.
  * The final SRM small glass mirror became available, so we had Hirose-san ship it to us so we can install it while the suspension is still on the assembly frame. Hirata-san ordered shims to make up the new recommended thickness of 1.4 mm and a micrometer to check the combination, which should arrive on Monday 11/26.
  * Enzo took calibration data for the last batch of geophones, for SRM. We had to borrow cables from SR2 because one cable was missing and another was miswired. And it turned out that one of the SR2 cables was defective as well. But if we can find two possibly borrowed by Okutomi-san and rewire one, we should have enough for SR2 and SRM. The geophones appear to be healthy and we will seal them next week.
  * We raised the PI clear of the assembly frame and unlocked and centered the IP. We calibrated the IP LVDTs, and reversed connections to get positive LVDT output for positive yaw. We borrowed a HPCD from SR3-IM-V for the SRM IP but haven't checked the actuation yet.
  
 * SR2
  * While we were grabbing geophone cables from SR2, we added extra arc weights to get the IP frequency below 0.1 Hz.
  * Akutsu-san showed us how to install the OL transmitter support pillar, receiver shelf and viewports. We believe we have the parts to finish setting up the SR2 OL.
