==== Report for week of 9/24 ====
 * Monday 9/24 was a holiday (Autumn Equinox).
===== SR2 =====
 * We moved all the SR2 feedthrough and in-vacuum and in-air cables.
 * We tested all the OSEMs and most of the LVDTs. We still need to run power to the pico drivers, and test them and the steppers.
 * We unlocked and mostly realigned the suspension. The IM is sitting lower than before but can be brought up to nominal height with BF GAS offset, without any signs of anything touching. The IM also has a moderately large pitch (2.8 mrad according to the OSEMs, about 1 mrad according to the OL) and some roll, which we expect to be able to correct with some pico adjustment. The horizontal IM OSEMs are well-centered (so there is no yaw misalignment).

===== SRM =====
 * We made another attempt to set the pitch of the SRM, but weren't satisfied with how close we were able to get (target 20 mm low, achieved 23 mm), so we didn't tighten the clamps or continue to setting the pitch of the RM.
 * On Friday and Saturday last week the pump down of the central area took place. We monitored the drift in the four Type B IPs.
 * During the week we recovered the four suspensions successfully: we recovered the alignment of IMs, GAS filters, IPs, oplevs and measured TFs.
 * Terrence, Enzo and Mark installed the length sensing components in SR2 oplev. It's working now and we should use it now to measure the optic's corresponding TF.
 * The SRM IM is still drifting but the speed is decreasing. Yesterday Thursday the speed was '''-81 nrad/min'''. With the aim of predicting when the drift may stop Terrece removed offsets from the time series segments and spliced them in order. The work is still on progress.
 * Terrence did more work in changing the real-time models.
 * Mark did some initial debugging on the stepper reset system, starting with SRM. However there seems to be some model-related problem. A BIO Checker Board gave sensible results for the low 32 bits of DIO card #0 (used for the TM LPCD) but nothing for the high 32 bits (used for steppers, and eventually also the WD). He added the stepper reset stuff to the circuit diagram (D1503660) and made other corrections.

==== Plan for week of 10/1 ====
 * Mark, Hirata-san, Fabian, Panwei at Kamioka Mon-Fri.
===== SRM =====
 * Set pitch of SRM and RM, tighten clamps, remove winch system.
 * Weigh IM/... section.
 * Build up SS to BF level.
 * Add BF.
 * Suspend IM and tweak height/balance.
 * Cable/test BF.
 * Install IRM.
 * Install/cable/test IM OSEMs.
=== Plan for week of 2/25 ===
 * Mark from Tuesday.
 * Enzo from Monday lunchtime.
 * Continue debugging stepper reset system.
 * Continue monitoring SRM yaw drift.
 * Install new RTMs and Guardian.
 * Work on Type B paper.
