 * 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 3/25 ====
 * Mark and Fabian helped Fujii-kun with PR2. The problem turned out to be two broken flags. Hirata-san drew up a design for a jig to help reglue the flags in situ.
 * Fabian documented the height budget for the Type B suspension in the wiki ([[KAGRA/Subgroups/VIS/OpsManual/TypeB/SR3Data]] etc).
 * Terrence wrote up the final version of his OL diagonalization scheme.
 * Terrence worked on L2P decoupling for the TM.
 * Terrence and Mark edited the Type B Guardian to turn on the payload damping later in the sequence, after IP and GAS, to help ensure that the OSEMs are not touching by the time they're needed (which can happen if the BF is buoyancy compensated for vacuum but the suspension is vented).
 * Mark started on a big tidy-up of the cleanbooth.
 * Mark asked LIGO colleagues about use-by dates for EP30-2. Masterbond says it's good for 6 months in cartridge form and 12 months in jar form (although presumably only if the jars are not opened). If it's too old it may remain tacky after curing. The batch that Type B has was manufactured 2017-11-02 and KEK has a batch from early 2018.

==== Plan for week of 3/25 ====
 * Mark, Fabian at Kamioka Mon-Fri.
 * Assist with PR2.
 * Work on Type B paper.
 * Modify RT models and/or Guardian to revert to the SAFE state under control in all but the most extreme emergency situations (rather than suddenly shutting off all output).
 * Tidy up.
  * Gather and clean tools.
  * Gather and organize unused parts and fasteners.
  * Return all unused cables to tent.
  * Tidy up cables in rear of SR2 rack.

==== Vacation/Travel Info ====
 * Enzo's last day 3/29.
 * Terrence's last day for now, 3/29.
 * Mark compensation day for 3/21: 3/29. (He is not really typing these minutes, and anyone who sounds like him in the meeting is an impostor!)
 * Type B going-away party for Terrence/Enzo, 3/29 in Tokyo.
 * Terrence's next visit from 4/18.
 * Fabian's vacation 4/26 to 5/10.
 * Mark's vacation from about 5/22 to 6/11 (TBD).
 * Mark's final day 6/28.
