| * Type B Past Week Summary * Mark and Fabian worked at Kamioka with Fujii-san: * We attempted to measure the tilt sensitivity of the accelerometers by adding shims under the legs but gave up when we discovered that picking up and putting down the accelerometer perturbs the zero point even without shims. We will probably need a special tilt stage to do this properly. * We took some frequency and Q measurements. The results were amplitude dependent. Joris thinks that this is due to not operating the accelerometers close enough to zero DC output. * We set up for a test of the geophone noise. One geophone is reading half the output of the others - one side of a differential signal has probably failed. * Type B ongoing issues * Wires * Need to decide RM wire thickness and order BS and RM wires. Lead time is a few days from Nilaco. * OSEMs * Akutsu-san is working to get wide-mouth OSEMs * Longer cables for BF->PI and SF->PI. * Takahashi-san has ordered extra connectors (due any day) and will get a company to make the cables. * Feedthrough Adapters * Need large quantity of male and female D-Sub 9, IDC ribbon connectors - Takahashi-san is getting a quote. * Can we make SR wire breakers bigger? * Fukushima-san will start on machining test soon (as of 5/27). * Installation stuff * "Ceiling" work in BS clean booth (removal of second floor section) scheduled for Fri 7/1. * Assembly frame construction scheduled for 7/4 * Ballast masses for payload * Initial batch received - ordered extra smaller ones to allow for adjustments. * Lower breadboard stuff * Installation to be incorporated into the procedure document. Mark/Takahashi to discuss. * Breadboard springs (in manufacture, expected end of July) * Nail-head parts: quote from Mirapro received, not urgent, will be combined with assembly frame order. * Documents * BS Assembly Procedure [[http://gwdoc.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/cgi-bin/private/DocDB/ShowDocument?docid=4235| E1504235]], [[https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=D5CCFA70A378E0D0!195&authkey=!AM_usynuo9QI57g&ithint=folder,webloc|E1504235 draft]] |
=== Type B (Mark) === ==== Report for week of 3/13 ==== At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry, Hirata-san): * We took a full set of TFs with the BF stationary but the IRM, IM, RM and TM all hanging. * We marked peeling or damaged areas on the clean booth floor for Furuta-san. * We installed the SF, measuring its weight in the process. * We found the crossbars supporting the SF jacks were too high to allow the SF ring to sit on the pillars while also being partially supported by the jacks. (This was an issue with the 3D CAD - the model of the NB-01 jack had a lower minimum height than reality.) We lowered the crossbars by 5 mm and put thicker spacers (12 mm instead of 3 mm) on top of the jacks supporting the SF and everything worked well. * We installed newly cleaned L-brackets under the BF and SF. * We installed the SF-BF rod and hex cable clamp. * We suspended the BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS section and found it was light, presumably because it had been trimmed according to the Promec measurement of the SF, not Hirata-san's later value. * We added extra ballast mass corresponding to the difference and found the BF section floated at a good height. * We moved trim mass around on the BF until it hung level, and adjusted the IRM and OSEMs until the IRM-IM EQ stops were well-centered and all the OSEMs were centered laterally and mid-range. * We ran 11 extra 20-m in-air cables from the tank towards the rack. (We will need to add 10-m extensions.) * We connected most of the cables to the vacuum flanges with screws and anti-feedthrough adapters. (Some remain to be done.) * We debugged a 900 Hz ringing in the BF LVDT, which turned out to be because the damping was enabled without appropriate filters or gains. * We debugged excess noise in the TM-H3 OSEM, which turned out to be mostly due to a faulty cable. However we worry that some of it may be due to some extensions made of non-vacuum-compatible ribbon cable which we added because the TM-H2 and -H3 OSEM cables are too short. * We found nearly all the parts for the lower breadboard suspension, including the blades, blade bases, associated cable clamps etc. We also found the jigs for installing the blades. ==== Report for week of 3/21 ==== At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry, Hirata-san): * We took a full set of TFs with the SF stationary but the BF, IRM, IM, RM and TM all hanging. * We also did a TF from BF LVDT actuation and confirmed that it was working. * We got SUMCON running on Perry's computer and worked out how to do cut-down versions of Fabian's full Type B model corresponding to the various partial configurations we have data for. ==== Plan for coming weeks ==== Next week: * Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday except for Hirata-san Wednesday-Friday). * Finish SF installation. * Finish BF cabling, hang BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS from SF and confirm weight matches load capacity. * Re-trim BF as necessary. * Get picomotor driver working.

Type B (Mark)
Report for week of 3/13
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry, Hirata-san):
- We took a full set of TFs with the BF stationary but the IRM, IM, RM and TM all hanging.
- We marked peeling or damaged areas on the clean booth floor for Furuta-san.
- We installed the SF, measuring its weight in the process.
- We found the crossbars supporting the SF jacks were too high to allow the SF ring to sit on the pillars while also being partially supported by the jacks. (This was an issue with the 3D CAD - the model of the NB-01 jack had a lower minimum height than reality.) We lowered the crossbars by 5 mm and put thicker spacers (12 mm instead of 3 mm) on top of the jacks supporting the SF and everything worked well.
- We installed newly cleaned L-brackets under the BF and SF.
- We installed the SF-BF rod and hex cable clamp.
- We suspended the BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS section and found it was light, presumably because it had been trimmed according to the Promec measurement of the SF, not Hirata-san's later value.
- We added extra ballast mass corresponding to the difference and found the BF section floated at a good height.
- We moved trim mass around on the BF until it hung level, and adjusted the IRM and OSEMs until the IRM-IM EQ stops were well-centered and all the OSEMs were centered laterally and mid-range.
- We ran 11 extra 20-m in-air cables from the tank towards the rack. (We will need to add 10-m extensions.)
- We connected most of the cables to the vacuum flanges with screws and anti-feedthrough adapters. (Some remain to be done.)
- We debugged a 900 Hz ringing in the BF LVDT, which turned out to be because the damping was enabled without appropriate filters or gains.
- We debugged excess noise in the TM-H3 OSEM, which turned out to be mostly due to a faulty cable. However we worry that some of it may be due to some extensions made of non-vacuum-compatible ribbon cable which we added because the TM-H2 and -H3 OSEM cables are too short.

Report for week of 3/21
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry, Hirata-san):
- We took a full set of TFs with the SF stationary but the BF, IRM, IM, RM and TM all hanging.
- We also did a TF from BF LVDT actuation and confirmed that it was working.
- We got SUMCON running on Perry's computer and worked out how to do cut-down versions of Fabian's full Type B model corresponding to the various partial configurations we have data for.
Plan for coming weeks
Next week:
- Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday except for Hirata-san Wednesday-Friday).
- Finish SF installation.
- Finish BF cabling, hang BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS from SF and confirm weight matches load capacity.
- Re-trim BF as necessary.
- Get picomotor driver working.
Week after next:
- Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday.
