| ==== Report for week of 10/15 ==== ===== SRM ===== * We received the fourth feedthrough we had been waiting for and installed it on the AF. * Fabian added the cables between the FE computer and the ADC/DAC boxes, and we checked that we were getting IO in the real-time model. * Fabian and Enzo connected up the Sat Amps. * Fabian double-checked the optic pitch, got the IRM nicely aligned to the IM, cabled IM OSEMs V1, V2, V3 and H1, and adjusted those OSEMs in/out to midrange. * Hirata-san set the compression on the F0 to 30 mm and measured the height and frequency as a function of load. He then fixed a loose screw on one of the blade tips and repeated the measurement. The frequency was fairly constant at around 0.5, which will do. He did a mass budget and chose a F1 CuBe spring. We may do a tiny bit more compression if the frequency degrades, and/or choose an even stronger spring if the load capacity is not enough. * Hirata-san took apart and reassembled one of the LBB blade units, which had a badly seated blade. * Hirata-san put cable clamps on the SF and on the PI. We are very short on the PEEK clamp pieces, so he scavenged some from SR2. * We added a new LAN hub for SRM, and configured two stepper drivers as SRM_IP and SRM_GAS. * Late in the week we received extra Type 3-4 cables (thanks to Sato-san for expediting) and were able to cable IM OSEMs H2 and H3, and the BF LVDT. * Enzo made a new batch of feedthrough adapters. ===== SR2 ===== * We finalized the geophone cabling and reinstalled the geophones. * We received the new arc weights, and used some of them to install a basic allotment of 6 38-mm weights on SR3 per the CAD. We then added two extra 19-mm arc weights for tuning and got a good IP frequency of 0.133 Hz. * Apart from the F0 yaw stepper issue and the OL, the SR2 is now more-or-less complete and adjusted mechanically, and just needs software work (control loops etc). We will however have to borrow one of the geophones at some point to do a huddle test with the final batch of new geophones (including those for SRM). Terrence can set up the OL in the week of 10/29. ==== Plan for week of 10/22 ==== * Friday is NAOJ Open Day Prep - no Kamioka work. * Mark and Fabian at Kamioka Mon-Thu. * Enzo and Hirata-san at Kamioka Tue-Thu. ===== SR2 ===== * 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.) * Continue shakedown. * Gather parts for the OL (with help from Simon). ===== SRM ===== * Scavenge HPCDs from SR2 and SR3 (currently we only have one for SRM) and organize to get LPCDs modified. * Suspend/weigh/balance the BF/... section. * Build up the AF and SS to the SF level. * Install the SF. ==== Plan for week of 10/29 ==== * Mark, Enzo, Hirata-san, Fabian and Terrence at Kamioka Mon-Fri. ===== SR2 ===== * Set up OL. ===== SRM ===== * Continue assembly. ==== To-Do Lists, Schedule ==== * [[KAGRA/Subgroups/VIS/TypeB/ToDoBS]] * [[KAGRA/Subgroups/VIS/TypeB/ToDoSR]] * [[https://gwdoc.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/cgi-bin/private/DocDB/ShowDocument?docid=7779|JGW-L1807779 Type B Schedule (SR)]] |
==== Report for the week of 4/8 ==== * Support of Type Bp * Mark made lots of Guardian improvements: * Used Guardian's timer functionality to drastically reduce the number of notifications during ramping. * Added new requestable states DCCTRL_ONLY and NEUTRAL (and associated transitional states) to facilitate testing. * Tidied up the code to use tabs consistently throughout for indentation. * Disabled the test for the IM-H coil driver WD (to work around the fact that only the relay in the chassis has been disabled, not the WD signals going to the BIO). * We opened the BS tank lid and offloaded a large IM-Y offset to F0-Y with manual adjustment of the broken yaw mechanism). * We opened the SR2 side doors and adjusted the V1 OSEM to mid-range. * Mark offloaded a large SR2 IM-Y offset to F0-Y. * Mark did health checks for BS, SR2 and SR3. * Fabian offloaded yaw from SRM and did the SRM health check. * Fabian updated the Python code for the stepper driver MEDM screen to reflect that two stepper drivers have different mappings to work around dead channels. * Fabian monitored pumpdown on Friday afternoon and will continue on Saturday. |

Type B (Mark)
Report for the week of 4/8
- Support of Type Bp
- Mark made lots of Guardian improvements:
- Used Guardian's timer functionality to drastically reduce the number of notifications during ramping.
- Added new requestable states DCCTRL_ONLY and NEUTRAL (and associated transitional states) to facilitate testing.
- Tidied up the code to use tabs consistently throughout for indentation.
- Disabled the test for the IM-H coil driver WD (to work around the fact that only the relay in the chassis has been disabled, not the WD signals going to the BIO).
- Mark made lots of Guardian improvements:
- We opened the BS tank lid and offloaded a large IM-Y offset to F0-Y with manual adjustment of the broken yaw mechanism).
- We opened the SR2 side doors and adjusted the V1 OSEM to mid-range.
- Mark offloaded a large SR2 IM-Y offset to F0-Y.
- Mark did health checks for BS, SR2 and SR3.
- Fabian offloaded yaw from SRM and did the SRM health check.
- Fabian updated the Python code for the stepper driver MEDM screen to reflect that two stepper drivers have different mappings to work around dead channels.
- Fabian monitored pumpdown on Friday afternoon and will continue on Saturday.
