 * Type B Past Week Summary
  * Mark and Fabian worked at Kamioka with Fujii-san:
   * We attempted to measure the tilt sensitivity of the accelerometers by adding shims under the legs but gave up when we discovered that picking up and putting down the accelerometer perturbs the zero point even without shims. We will probably need a special tilt stage to do this properly.
   * We took some frequency and Q measurements. The results were amplitude dependent. Joris thinks that this is due to not operating the accelerometers close enough to zero DC output.
   * We set up for a test of the geophone noise. One geophone is reading half the output of the others - one of the adapter cables is broken.
  * Hirata-san:
   * Received extra compensation masses and washed them.
   * Received PI guides, assembled them and shipped them to Kamioka.
   * Received backup set of pillar for security structure (with M10 instead of M12 holes at top).
   * Removed adhesive from base of BS flags in preparation for regluing.
   * Did assembly drawings for cable clamps and other add-on parts for BF and SF.
 * Type B ongoing issues
  * Wires
   * Need to decide RM wire thickness and order BS and RM wires. Lead time is a few days from Nilaco.
  * OSEMs
   * Akutsu-san is working to get wide-mouth OSEMs
  * Longer cables for BF->PI and SF->PI.
   * Connectors RECEIVED, cables being made.
  * Feedthrough Adapters
   * Connectors RECEIVED.
  * SR machining test ONGOING.
  * Installation stuff
   * "Ceiling" work in BS clean booth (removal of second floor section) scheduled for Fri 7/1.
   * Assembly frame construction scheduled for 7/4
  * Ballast masses for payload
   * Initial batch received - ordered extra smaller ones to allow for adjustments.
  * Lower breadboard stuff
   * Installation to be incorporated into the procedure document. Mark/Takahashi to discuss.
   * Breadboard springs (in manufacture, expected end of July)
   * Nail-head parts - ordered with assembly frame, will arrive next week.
  * Documents
   * BS Assembly Procedure [[http://gwdoc.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/cgi-bin/private/DocDB/ShowDocument?docid=4235| E1504235]], [[https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=D5CCFA70A378E0D0!195&authkey=!AM_usynuo9QI57g&ithint=folder,webloc|E1504235 draft]]
=== Type B (Mark) ===
==== Past week report ====
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry, Hirata-san):

 * Craned in the PI.
 * Assembled the thrust bearing holder that receives the PI-SF rod. (It originally had a burr that prevented the bearing from seating properly, and so required filing and re-cleaning.)
 * Hooked the SF and lowered the jacks under the SF to suspend the SF/... section.
 * The top filter rose when unlocked, and required about 1.8 kg to send it back down. Therefore we may be OK - the top filter seems to have about 8 kg more capacity than as measured by G&M. The hex cable clamp (≈0.25 kg) and the cables between the PI and SF still have to be added, but we can get an extra 3 kg by removing one of the three Cu damper segments (and rearranging the other two).
 * Built and installed three LBB blade units.
 * Kept debugging the SF LVDT. We repaired several broken wires, but it's still not behaving correctly.

==== Plan for coming weeks ====
For more detail, see [[KAGRA/Subgroups/VIS/TypeB/ToDo]].

Week of 5/1:
 * No activity (Golden Week).

Week of 5/8:
 * Work from Tuesday.
 * Remove PI temporarily.
 * Add magnets to upper SF damper ring.
 * Reinstall PI with damper ring.
 * Reinstall PI-SF rod, this time with hex cable clamp.
 * Install PI yaw stepper.
 * Wire up PI yaw and vertical steppers.
 * Route cables from SF to PI (may involve removing part of Cu damper).
