==== 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 just temporary and will be replaced later once the suspension is inside the tank.
 * We checked all the motors, like:
       *the IM picos, BF picos.
 * We checked the BF Stepper (Fishing rod), SF Stepper (SF Fishing rod), F0 Stepper (F0 Fishing rod).
 * 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 the week of 3/11 ====
 * Fabian mostly helped Fujii-kun with the PRM.
 * Fabian monitored the SRM yaw drift. It gradually reversed but so far remained small.
 * Mark and Hirata-san debugged the BS:
  * We inspected the payload section and quickly found the problem: two RM EQ stops were touching, on the +L (-X,+Y) side at the top. This was probably because the stops had been adjusted with the IP unlocked and sitting a few mm to -L, whereas now we have the DCCTRL running and have been locking the IP at the LVDT zero. We drove the IP to L=+1.5 mm as a near-worst case, and backed off all the stops to give several mm of margin. Then we zeroed the IP pitch, roll and yaw with the picos.
  * We also opened the top of the BS and confirmed that the mechanical zero defined by the locking mechanism agreed with the LVDT zero. It was very close in L and T, but -728 µrad in Y, driven mostly by a -805 µm offset in H3. That much is probably not a dumb error but just a difference in technique among the three people using calipers to take data for the calibration.
  * We then prepared the BS for close-up:
   * We wiped and inspected the O-ring for the lid and replaced the lid.
   * We wiped all accessible surfaces in the lower half of the tank, rescued some dropped items (some PEEK tube and a small nut) and un-immobilized the LBB.
  * After all the above, the OL was a bit off-center but still on the QPD, and Nagano-san fairly quickly recovered the original alignment.
 * Terrence rebuilt the BS OL according to a new layout suggested by Simon, which avoids scrambling the pitch/yaw at the first steering mirror and greatly reduces the amount of diagonalization required.
 * Terrence noticed some anomalous cross coupling on the SR2 (but not the SR3) and we investigated.
  * We suspected it might be an odd position of the beam spot on the optic, so we took pictures through the camera and LED viewports of SR3, and opened the SR2 tank and used a white target, but the beam spots were in very similar positions - close to central vertically and about 3 cm to the left of center horizontally.
  * We suspected it might be something touching at the IRM (because the IM OSEM TFs were fine), so we checked using a stick mirror with the IP centered, but all EQ stops were well backed off.
  * We suspected it might be a ghost beam from the LEN/TILT beamsplitter (and one was clearly visible on the SR2 TILT QPD) so Terrence set up a beam block, which improved things slightly but not completely.
  * Finally Terrence discovered that the problem was mainly uneven sensitivities of the QPD quadrants, and devised a new calibration and diagonalization procedure which allowed for it.
 * Enzo and Terrence did a health check of the SRM and it was fine except for some apparent electrical noise around 240 Hz. They put in a notch filter to get rid of it for now.

==== 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.

 * Mark, Fabian, Terrence at Kamioka full week.
 * More OL stuff.
 * SRM controls and Guardian.
 * Reset SRM yaw and continue monitoring yaw drift.
 * Assist with pump down.
 * Work on Type B paper.
 * Tidy up.
  * Throw out foil and other garbage.
  * Gather and clean tools.
  * Gather and organize unused parts and fasteners.
  * Pull out unused cables in cable tray near SR3.
