| ==== Report for week of 1/28 ==== * Etc * Mark inventoried lots of items and updated the [[KAGRA/Subgroups/VIS/TypeB/Status|Status]] page. * SR2 * Hirata-san helped with installing the obelisk on the LBB, and added counterweights to get the LBB level and at the right height for the first rough alignment. However the springs were still at or near the top stops, so he later pulled down the LBB with excess mass, locked the blades at the bottom of their range and reset the LBB rods and damping magnet ring, aiming off by 10 mm so that it would be correct when the LBB was allowed to rise to midrange on the blades. He left it pressed down for now so that Hirose-san could apply FC. Early next week he will release it and do the final ballasting. * Hirose-san applied and removed FC on both sides of the optic for cleanliness. * Mirapro hooked the LBB. * SR3 * Enzo installed IM damping filters. * Mark installed a BIO Converter for the stepper remote enable (which will eventually also be used for the WD). * Fabian researched buoyancy compensation and pre-applied as much as possible to SR3. The total compensation needed is 0.19 mm for F0, 0.48 mm for SF and 0.46 mm for BF, total 1.23 mm. 1.0 mm had been applied with the jacks. The initial plan was to apply the calculated amounts at each level but then offset F0 1.0 mm lower to undo the jack adjustment. However SF was stuck approximately 1 mm lower than it needed to end up, so the buoyancy correction for it will have to be done at F0, and F0 will end up quite close to nominal. * Fabian also offloaded the IM pico yaw adjustment done by Enomoto-kun-tachi to the F0 yaw stepper. This left the OSEMs well-centered, so we will not need to adjust them and the LBB can be released. * SRM * Enzo fixed the broken triple in-air pico adapter cable and we plugged it back in. * Fabian calibrated the F0 FR. * Enzo and Terrence installed the arc weights and geophones, tuned and centered the IP, and centered and calibrated the FRs. * Mirapro helped us with the camera viewport issue by giving us a gasket of the same type but a different brand from their stock, which snapped easily into place. We then installed the viewport on the tank. Kokeyama-san will help us add the camera and camera LAN cable next week. * Simon gave us all the remaining items for the SRM OL except the 3D stage for the LEN QPD. |

Type B (Mark)
Report for the week of 2/25
- Fabian monitored suspensions during the vent.
- Terrence and Mark made lots of changes to the Guardians and RTMs:
- Added UI to take snapshots with ALIGNED/MISALIGNED channels (for late use by Guardian).
Changed "IM1" and "IM2" in channel names to "IMV" and "IMH"; also "DIO" and "BO" -> "BIO".
- Created library blocks for BIO and made all the Type B models use them.
- Tweaked the control topology to be more LIGO-style: the error signal for DC control is sensor-setpoint (not setpoint-sensor as in many controls textbooks); the input to the damping block is the uninverted sensor signal(s); there is a hard-wired -1 after the damping block representing default negative gain.
- Fabian went inside the SRM chamber and diagnosed the problem that had appeared shortly before vent. It turned out to be yaw of the IP causing a payload cable to touch. He fixed it with the F0 yaw stepper. (He had tried this earlier without success but it turned out the problem was another dead output on the stepper driver.)
- Terrence traced the geophone issue to a group of dead channels (#20-23) on the AA chassis. We tried replacing the chassis and it fixed not only the geophone issue but an issue in the TILT OL path (#24-27) that we had planned to debug next.
- We retested the BIO for stepper remote enable system and this time it was working (probably due to the refactoring of the BIO stuff in the model and/or all the restarts).
- We rebuilt all the IOP models after removing an unneeded ADC1 block (corresponding to hardware that Yoshizawa-san had removed).
- Enzo and Terrence wrote Python scripts to automate the process of adapting the control filters to the new topology (where the DAMP and DCCTRL functions are in parallel instead of series).
Plan for week of 3/4
- Enzo at Mitaka.
- Mark, Fabian Mon-Wed (Thu is farewell party).
- Final tweaks of SRM?
- Monitor (re-)pumpdown.
- Tests of new Guardian.
- Final test of stepper remote enable system (someone in cleanroom checks the lights go on/off).
- Continue monitoring SRM yaw drift.
- Setup SRM and SR3 LEN OLs.
- Work on Type B paper.
==== Plan for week of 3/11 =====
