| * 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 the week of 2/18
- On Friday and Saturday last week the pump down of the central area took place. We monitored the drift in the four Type B IPs.
- During the week we recovered the four suspensions successfully: we recovered the alignment of IMs, GAS filters, IPs, oplevs and measured TFs.
- Terrence, Enzo and Mark installed the length sensing components in SR2 oplev. It's working now and we should use it now to measure the optic's corresponding TF.
The SRM IM is still drifting but the speed is decreasing. Yesterday Thursday the speed was -81 nrad/min. With the aim of predicting when the drift may stop Terrece removed offsets from the time series segments and spliced them in order. The work is still on progress.
- Terrence did more work in changing the real-time models.
- Mark did some initial debugging on the stepper reset system, starting with SRM. However there seems to be some model-related problem. A BIO Checker Board gave sensible results for the low 32 bits of DIO card #0 (used for the TM LPCD) but nothing for the high 32 bits (used for steppers, and eventually also the WD). He added the stepper reset stuff to the circuit diagram (D1503660) and made other corrections.
Plan for week of 2/25
- Mark from Tuesday.
- Enzo from Monday lunchtime.
- Continue debugging stepper reset system.
- Continue monitoring SRM yaw drift.
- Install new RTMs and Guardian.
- Debug SRM geophones.
- Setup SRM and SR3 LEN OLs (low priority).
- Work on Type B paper.
Vacation/Travel Info
- Enzo vacation, 3/5 and possibly 3/6.
- Enzo et al. Farewell Party, 3/7.
- Enzo at JPS then final vacation, 3/13-29
- Terrence's last day, 3/29.
