==== Report for week of 9/10 ====
 * We finish the invacuum and in air cabling for SR2, but the in-vacuum cables for Geophones and F0 Yaw stepper motor are temporary and will be replaced later, once the suspension is inside the tank.
 * We debugged the IM OSEMs and fixed two broken in-vacuum cables and some mislabeled in-air cables.
 * We debugged an issue with the IP LVDTs and discovered it was a broken interface card D1402829 in the LVDT driver. We made up a working chassis with the original two driver cards, so we didn't have to reset all the phases and gains.
 * We reset the IP FRs to midrange.
 * We added a basic set of arc weights and recentered the IP. We then adjusted the verticality of the security structure.
 * We relocked the IP temporarily, unlocked the SF/... section and aligned the IM OSEMs.
 * We powered down the BS, SR3 and SR2 electronics in preparation for the power outage.
==== Report for week of 10/22 ====
===== SRM =====
 * We borrowed the TM HPCDs from SR2 and SR3 so that SRM had HPCDs for IM-H, IM-V and GAS.
 * Fabian adjusted the last two OSEMs (IM-H2 and H3).
 * We closed the BF and weighed the BF/... section.
 * Fabian and Hirata-san routed all the BF/... cables via the BF cap (except for the four TM OSEM cables, where we're still waiting for extensions).
 * We built up the assembly frame and security structure to the SF level and craned in the SF.
 * We installed the SF-BF rod and flying saucer, and suspended the BF/... section. We will need about 600 g on the BF cap for balance and SF keystone height, which is as expected and not a problem.
 * Hirata-san collected a suitable CuBe spring and bracket parts from Type A. He ultrasonically cleaned the bracket and then installed the bracket and spring on the F0. The frequency increased from 0.5 Hz to 0.625 Hz, so he did another round of compression, from 30 mm to 31.3 mm.
 * Enzo soldered some short and/or broken cables to make longer cables that we need urgently. He got in touch with Yamamoto-san to arrange bringing them to Toyama University and ultrasonically cleaning them.
 * We pulled out cables running to the OMMT area that were used for the old OSEM/geophone testing setup and started a new geophone testing setup in the SR3 area using the optical table from the SR2 assembly frame.
 * Hirose-san reported results from his astigmatism test on the second SRM small optic and metal mass. With the tight shims (1.0 mm thickness, as used for the installed SRM) there was substantial astigmatism, but with the next looser available size (1.5 mm) there was no astigmatism but the optic is held very poorly and rattles. Hirose-san is ordering some intermediate thicknesses and will make a recommendation. However he will almost certainly suggest that we change the shims on the hanging SRM, so we need to think about whether that is feasible.

==== Report for week of 9/3 ====
 * We did more in-vacuum and in-air cabling for SR2 and got nearly everything connected.
 * We debugged the IM OSEMs and fixed two broken in-vacuum cables and some mislabeled in-air cables.
 * We debugged an issue with the IP LVDTs and discovered it was a broken interface card D1402829 in the LVDT driver. We made up a working chassis with the original two driver cards, so we didn't have to reset all the phases and gains.
 * We reset the IP FRs to midrange.
 * We added a basic set of arc weights and recentered the IP. We then adjusted the verticality of the security structure.
 * We relocked the IP temporarily, unlocked the SF/... section and aligned the IM OSEMs.
 * We powered down the BS, SR3 and SR2 electronics in preparation for the power outage.
===== SR2 =====
 * Akutsu-san collected the parts we will need for the SR2 OL so that Terrence can install it next week.
 * Hirata-san supervised the disassembly of the assembly frame. The pieces are now in the IMMT area, although we may need to move them again because they're a bit in the way.
Line 25: Line 23:
==== Plan for week of 9/10 ====
 * Monday 9/10 is scheduled power outage.
 * Mark in US (job interview).
 * Hirata-san, Fabian, Kozu-kun, Panwei at Kamioka Tue-Fri.
 * Enzo at Kamioka Tue-Thu, then JPS Meeting Fri, then vacation.
===== Etc =====
 * Recover from power outage.
==== Plan for week of 10/29 ====
 * Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san, Fabian and Terrence at Kamioka Mon-Fri.
Line 33: Line 26:
 * Calibrate F0 LVDTs.
 * Calibrate IP LVDTs.
 * Cable geophones and any other remaining PI items.
 * Finish in-air cabling (sort out and relabel rack and feedthrough ends of any repurposed cables).
 * Do basic go/no-go test of electronic items.
 * Check SF keystone height and offload with FR as necessary.
 * Adjust ballast/trim mass of SF, with reserve for yaw stepper.
 * Set SF damper magnet ring height.
 * Check/tweak optic pitch.
 * TFs.
==== Plan for week of 9/17 ====
 * Monday 9/17 is holiday (Respect for the Aged Day).
 * Enzo on vacation.
 * Mark, Hirata-san, Fabian, Panwei at Kamioka Tue-Fri.
===== SR2 =====
 * Crane SR2 into tank.
 * Move SR2 in-air cables.
 * Remove First Contact.
 * Unlock and realign suspension.
 * Set up OL.
 * Possibly do a measurement of how much torque is required on the F0 keystone to move the system in yaw. (This will help Sato-san choose a suitable stepper driver for the new design.)
 * Possibly add more arc weights, to get below 0.1 Hz.
Line 53: Line 30:
 * Set pitch of SRM and RM, tighten clamps, remove winch system.
 * Weigh IM/... section.
 * Build up SS to BF level.
