==== 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 3/18 ====
 * BS
  * Terrence notice that one of the IP LVDTs was not working. We traced it to an unplugged cable, plugged it back in and screwed it together to prevent a recurrence.
  * Simon helped us rebuild the damaged LEN OL QPD stage and Terrence reinstalled it. We removed a C-clamp that we had been using to immobilize the breadboard because it interfered with the QPD stage, and replaced it with a more elegant solution using a dog clamp underneath.
  * We noticed that the BS IP had fallen over in +L at some time shortly before Nakano-san aligned the optic on 3/18. Terrence tried to recenter it but it was unstable. We decided to remove the tank lid one more time and remove some arc weights. The IP frequency had been 39 mHz the last time it was measurable, and we increased it to a much-safer 80 mHz by removing 9 kg. We believe we were able to recover Nakano-san's alignment fairly closely.
  * Terrence then recalibrated and diagonalized both the TILT and LEN OL.
 * SR2
  * Terrence recalibrated the OL.
 * SR3
  * Mark pulled out unused cables leading into the SR3 cleanbooth.
 * SRM
  * Terrence set up the SRM Guardian.
 * Etc/All
  * Mark did an audit of the OL whitening/dewhitening system and fixed a bunch of problems: the SRM chassis was the wrong type, with no actual whitening card; SR2 and SRM needed whitening filters turned on; BS LEN needed the dewhitening turned on; SR2, SR3 and SRM needed dewhitening filters installed and turned on; SRM needed more gain.
  * Terrence weeded out a minor error from his OL diagonalization scheme and got L, T and Y independent at the 1% level for SR2 and SRM. He will do SR3 next.
  * Fabian measured the gain resistor values and other settings of the LVDT drivers, in case a card or chassis fails and we have to approximate the original state without the chance to recalibrate from scratch.
  * Fabian monitored the pumpdown.

=== Type B (Mark) ===
==== 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.
==== Plan for week of 3/25 ====
 * Mark, Fabian, Terrence at Kamioka Mon-Thu.
 * Assist with alignment.
 * Work on Type B paper.
 * Tidy up.
  * Throw out foil and other garbage.
  * 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.
