| ==== 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: * IM picos, BF picos. * BF Stepper (Fishing rod), SF Stepper (SF Fishing rod), F0 Stepper (F0 Fishing rod). * IP Steppers (Horizontal fishing rods). * We use the Steppers to set to nominal height the BF and SF, but for the SF we culd not move it too much and it is still too low. * We set up the temporary oplev for SR2. * We checked the pitch of the optics. The current pitch is: * We tried to check the TM actuators but there is a problem with the MEDM screens that we need to fix next week. * We measured TFs of the GAS filters and the 6 DoF of the IM. It seems to be healthy. * We set the F0 stepper to middle position. * ... === 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 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. ===== SR2 ===== * 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. ===== SRM ===== * Set pitch of SRM and RM, tighten clamps, remove winch system. * Weigh IM/... section. * Build up SS to BF level. * Add BF. ==== Plan for week of 9/24 ==== * Monday 9/24 is holiday (Autumn Equinox). * Mark, Hirata-san, Fabian, Panwei at Kamioka Tue-Fri. * Suspend IM and tweak height/balance. ===== SRM ===== * Cable/test BF. * Install IRM. * Install/cable/test IM OSEMs. |
==== Report for week of 1/14 ==== * Etc * Hirata-san ordered three 41 mm spanners for adjusting the jacks under the top of the tanks. * Mirapro installed bellows on the -Y side of BS and the +Y side of SR2. * Simon got us an LED, a 2D QPD stage and a second 300x400 mm breadboard, which should be enough to do the SRM TILT OL. He's working on a few more items needed for the LEN OL. * Terada-san and Uchiyama-san placed height markers on the SR tank frames showing the BS height and the desired SR heights allowing for 1/300 gradient: SR2 BS+17 mm, SR3 BS+56 mm, and SRM BS+70 mm. * Terrence and Mark reworked the Type B Guardian code to simplify future maintenance, so that the scripts `VIS_BS.py` etc are now tiny stub files which call common code in `TYPEB.py`. * Mark, Terrence and Enzo updated all the Type B models and MEDM screens to add support for binary output to the stepper driver enable inputs, and Enzo ran cables from the front ends to the BIO adapters, and thence to the drivers. We tested the SRM setup but it doesn't yet work. * BS * We installed the three new geophones originally prepared for SRM and then realized we'd made a serious mistake: the old wiring used adapters at both ends of the cable to compensate for the flipped preamps in the original geophones, and we forgot to take out the ones at the rack end. So two of the new ones appear to have been damaged and will have to be repaired. VIS has enough preamps to fix all the broken Type B geophones, but Type A will also need some more soon and there aren't enough in total, so we will have to repair them. * Hirata-san tried various things including turning the F0 FR carriage upside down to try to fix the jamming problem but it didn't seem to help. After advice from Takahashi-san and further debugging we discovered that we had a half-dead channel on the BS_GAS stepper driver, so we switched to a working channel, and that fixed things. * We recalibrated the F0 LVDT, this time measuring the height from the top down as we had been doing for the SRs. We also measured the range of the F0 FR in steps and millimeters and its effect on the keystone. * We tuned the IP for frequency and centered it in L, T and Y. We got 78 mHz. * SRM * Hirata-san checked the F0 yaw stepper and it worked. * (CHECK!!) Hirata-san checked the channels on the SRM stepper drivers and found they all worked. However the F0 FR still didn't move, so he tried turning the carriage upside down, and that fixed it. So between the BS and SRM there were two independent causes of the same problem. * Fabian surveyed the height of the SRM relative to Terada-san's reference with the GAS filters at nominal height and found it was 3.5 mm low. This is well within the range of the jacks, so we will raise the entire suspension to fix it. * Fabian inspected the optic. It seems OK for dust, but there is still some residue left from removing the FC. We may try some more dabbing with acetone. * SR2 * Terrence and Enzo tested the third and last type of collimator (3500 mm) in the OL, but it had much too small a spot and dynamic range. We will standardize on 1.1 mm collimators for all OLs. * Fabian inspected the optic and found patterns that may be FC residue on both sides. * SR3 * Fabian and Ohishi-san tried using the Top Gun to remove dust found earlier by Hirose-san. The AR side came clean but the HR did not improve. Fabian wiped the security structure and LBB with Vectra10 wipes and ethanol. |

- Hirata-san ordered three 41 mm spanners for adjusting the jacks under the top of the tanks.
- Mirapro installed bellows on the -Y side of BS and the +Y side of SR2.

Terrence and Mark reworked the Type B Guardian code to simplify future maintenance, so that the scripts VIS_BS.py etc are now tiny stub files which call common code in TYPEB.py.
- Mark, Terrence and Enzo updated all the Type B models and MEDM screens to add support for binary output to the stepper driver enable inputs, and Enzo ran cables from the front ends to the BIO adapters, and thence to the drivers. We tested the SRM setup but it doesn't yet work.
