| ==== Report for week of 12/17 ==== * BS * We opened the top of the BS tank after the vent. * We inspected the BS F0 blades for cracks but still didn't find any. * We removed the arc weights and geophones, and added new longer studs for the arc weights and new cables for the geophones. We then put back the original arc weights and new geophones. * We measured the geometry of the various IP items to check the IP diagonalization matrices. * We installed the new double-sided F0 FR. We were not close to needing to add the optional !CuBe spring. Unfortunately the FR had rather less friction but still didn't work. After checking a bunch of possibilities and comparing against SRM (also non-working) and SR2/SR3 (working), we suspect the carriage may be assembled upside down, with the metal plate below and the PEEK plate above. We will try changing it next week. * We adjusted the F0 keystone trim mass and were able to get it to sit at CAD nominal height at nominal temperature (24.9°C) with mid-range FR and modest extra mass (413 g). Interestingly, we noticed that removing the arc weights and/or geophones reduced the load capacity by a few hundred grams. * We measured the total range of the IP FRs in steps and set them to mid-range in preparation for tuning the IP frequency and (re-)centering the IP. * SRM * We borrowed an LED from SR2 and set the pitch of the SRM optic. * We found the SRM front end had crashed and could not be properly reset by cycling the power from the web interface. Yamamoto-san eventually got it working for us, although it didn't seem to take more than restarting the user and IOP models. * We sealed and retested the new geophones originally intended for SRM, but decided to use them on BS instead. * We installed the two OL viewports. We also tried to install the camera viewport but we couldn't get the Cu gasket to sit in the recess, so we gave up and will probably reallocate the camera viewport to SR3 for now (where it will go on a different type of flange which we've had success with. Saito-san says that we can get help with the SRM flange from Mirapro on 1/28. * SR3 * We opened the top of the tank briefly to inspect the configuration of the F0 FR, but didn't do any significant work. * Hirose-san inspected inside the bottom part of the chamber and found some dust, so he recommended we wipe with Vectra-Alpha wipes (IPA-resistant type) and IPA. he gave us a powerful LED flashlight array and asked us to use it to look for dust in all the chambers. * Etc * We gave Simon a list of items we still need for the SRM OL. He seemed to think that they should be in stock at Kamioka and will help us look for them next Tue 1/15. * Mark and Enzo booked flights for the KAGRA International Workshop. * Mark had to schedule a trip to Australia for the week of 1/21 to attend to family business. ==== 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 3/25 ==== * Mark and Fabian helped Fujii-kun with PR2. The problem turned out to be two broken flags. Hirata-san drew up a design for a jig to help reglue the flags in situ. * Fabian documented the height budget for the Type B suspension in the wiki ([[KAGRA/Subgroups/VIS/OpsManual/TypeB/SR3Data]] etc). * Terrence wrote up the final version of his OL diagonalization scheme. * Terrence worked on L2P decoupling for the TM. * Terrence and Mark edited the Type B Guardian to turn on the payload damping later in the sequence, after IP and GAS, to help ensure that the OSEMs are not touching by the time they're needed (which can happen if the BF is buoyancy compensated for vacuum but the suspension is vented). * Mark started on a big tidy-up of the cleanbooth. * Mark asked LIGO colleagues about use-by dates for EP30-2. Masterbond says it's good for 6 months in cartridge form and 12 months in jar form (although presumably only if the jars are not opened). If it's too old it may remain tacky after curing.

| ==== Plan for week of 1/7 ==== * Make sure BS is floating, recenter OL to capture current yaw position. * Vent BS. * Inspect BS F0 blades for cracks. * Install new BS F0 FR, and (if necessary) auxiliary CuBe spring. * Confirm geometry of LVDTs, geophones, FRs etc and update T1707205 if necessary. * Replace geophone preamps and cables (to fix noise, offset, pinout flip issues). * Add more mass to IP to get lower frequency. * Adjust all GAS filters to near mid-range (using keystone mass for F0 as much as possible, and FR+LVDT for SF and BF). |
==== Plan for week of 3/25 ==== * Mark, Fabian at Kamioka Mon-Fri. * Assist with PR2. * Work on Type B paper. * Modify RT models and/or Guardian to revert to the SAFE state under control in all but the most extreme emergency situations (rather than suddenly shutting off all output). * Tidy up. * 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. |

Report for the week of 3/25
- Mark and Fabian helped Fujii-kun with PR2. The problem turned out to be two broken flags. Hirata-san drew up a design for a jig to help reglue the flags in situ.
Fabian documented the height budget for the Type B suspension in the wiki (KAGRA/Subgroups/VIS/OpsManual/TypeB/SR3Data etc).
- Terrence wrote up the final version of his OL diagonalization scheme.
- Terrence worked on L2P decoupling for the TM.
- Terrence and Mark edited the Type B Guardian to turn on the payload damping later in the sequence, after IP and GAS, to help ensure that the OSEMs are not touching by the time they're needed (which can happen if the BF is buoyancy compensated for vacuum but the suspension is vented).
- Mark started on a big tidy-up of the cleanbooth.
- Mark asked LIGO colleagues about use-by dates for EP30-2. Masterbond says it's good for 6 months in cartridge form and 12 months in jar form (although presumably only if the jars are not opened). If it's too old it may remain tacky after curing. The batch that Type B has was manufactured 2017-11-02 and KEK has a batch from early 2018.
