 * Type B Past Week Summary
  * Mark, Fabian and Hirata-san cleaned glue off the dummy BS, attached Akutsu-san's new SS mirror plates, reglued the flags and prisms, and removed the gluing hardware, so the dummy BS is ready for shipping. Tatsumi-san's refinements to the tooling (especially the new flag holders) worked very smoothly. We were more generous with the glue and much more careful with the alignment of the prisms to the barrel, both during rehearsal and the final gluing.
  * Mark wrote up the gluing procedure as a new document [[http://gwdoc.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/cgi-bin/private/DocDB/ShowDocument?docid=5505| E1605505]]. (The original plan was to do an addendum to Tatsumi-san's PR gluing procedure JGW-E1504248, but there was too much material.)
  * Hirata-san organized with Takahashi-san to get the BS payload masses shipped to Kamioka. They will go in an air-ride truck on Wed 8/17 together with a load of Type A stuff, and will arrive early on Thu 8/17.
  * Hirata-san shipped the collection of Type B fasteners to Kamioka, to arrive Mon 8/15.
  * Hirata-san measured another standard filter and cleaned various parts for people.
  * Hirata-san worked on the SR2 Inventor assembly. He spotted a problem with the orientation: given the position of the pistons in the SR2 tank (according to the assembly from Mirapro), mating the standard Type B SR chain and the chamber in the natural way puts the optic at 90° to what it needs to be. A similar problem was found in the Type B Test at Mitaka, and it was eventually worked around, but with some difficulty. Hirata-san will investigate the best way of making a correction.
  * Fabian worked on the payload assembly procedure.
  * Komori-kun, Kuwahara-kun and Akutsu-san calibrated an initial batch of 7 wide-mouthed OSEMs. They will be shipped to Kamioka on Friday.
 
 * Type B ongoing issues
  * OSEMs
   * First batch of 7 ready for shipping.
  * Longer cables for BF->PI and SF->PI.
   * Connectors RECEIVED, cables being made.
  * Lower breadboard stuff
   * Installation to be incorporated into the procedure document. Mark/Takahashi to discuss.
  * 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]]
 * To-do list during Mark's vacation
  * Weigh IM/RM/IRM (Fabian, Hirata) - DONE
   * New trim mass - ORDERED.
  * Pack/ship IM/RM/IRM to Kamioka (Hirata/Fabian) - READY TO SHIP.
  * Analyze geophone data (Fabian/Shoda) - DONE.
  * Remove glue from dummy BS face (Fabian) - DONE.
  * Reglue flags and prisms (Tatsumi, Fabian) - DONE.
  * Clean wire for BS and RM (Hirata) - DONE
  * Get new winch parts for new wire diameters - ORDERED, expected 8/5.
  * Do fit/function test of winches (Fabian/Hirata) - fit test DONE, function test from 8/8
  * Ship winches to Kamioka (Hirata/Fabian)
  * Work on BS simulation (Fabian)
  * Do Inventor assembly for SR2 in chamber and on assembly frame (Hirata) - ONGOING.
  * Write more of payload assembly procedure (Fabian) - ONGOING
  * Write more of main assembly procedure (Mark) - ONGOING
 * Longer term to-do list
  * Do BS Simulink model (Mark, Kokeyama)
  * Do 2D drawings of SR2 parts (Hirata)
  * Redesign SRx IM wire clamps for larger prisms, remachined RMs
  * Order SRM/PRM parts (Hirata/Shoda)
  * Order SRx fasteners (Hirata)		 === Type B (Mark) ===
==== Report for the week of 3/18 ====
 * BS
  * Terrence notice that one of the IP LVDTs was not working. We traced it to an unplugged cable, plugged it back in and screwed it together to prevent a recurrence.
  * Simon helped us rebuild the damaged LEN OL QPD stage and Terrence reinstalled it. We removed a C-clamp that we had been using to immobilize the breadboard because it interfered with the QPD stage, and replaced it with a more elegant solution using a dog clamp underneath.
  * We noticed that the BS IP had fallen over in +L at some time shortly before Nakano-san aligned the optic on 3/18. Terrence tried to recenter it but it was unstable. We decided to remove the tank lid one more time and remove some arc weights. The IP frequency had been 39 mHz the last time it was measurable, and we increased it to a much-safer 80 mHz by removing 9 kg. We believe we were able to recover Nakano-san's alignment fairly closely.
  * Terrence then recalibrated and diagonalized both the TILT and LEN OL.
 * SR2
  * Terrence recalibrated the OL.
 * SR3
  * Mark pulled out unused cables leading into the SR3 cleanbooth.
 * SRM
  * Terrence set up the SRM Guardian.
 * Etc/All
  * Mark did an audit of the OL whitening/dewhitening system and fixed a bunch of problems: the SRM chassis was the wrong type, with no actual whitening card; SR2 and SRM needed whitening filters turned on; BS LEN needed the dewhitening turned on; SR2, SR3 and SRM needed dewhitening filters installed and turned on; SRM needed more gain.
  * Terrence weeded out a minor error from his OL diagonalization scheme and got L, T and Y independent at the 1% level for SR2 and SRM. He will do SR3 next.
  * Fabian measured the gain resistor values and other settings of the LVDT drivers, in case a card or chassis fails and we have to approximate the original state without the chance to recalibrate from scratch.
  * Fabian monitored the pumpdown.

==== Plan for week of 3/25 ====
 * Mark, Fabian, Terrence at Kamioka Mon-Thu.
 * Assist with alignment.
 * Work on Type B paper.
 * Tidy up.
  * Throw out foil and other garbage.
  * 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.

==== Vacation/Travel Info ====
 * Enzo's final vacation till 3/29.
 * Terrence's last day for now, 3/29.
 * Mark compensation day for 3/21: 3/29.
 * Type B going-away party for Terrence/Enzo, 3/29 in Tokyo.
 * Terrence's next visit from 4/18.
 * Fabian's vacation 4/26 to 5/10.
 * Mark's final day ≈6/28 (TBD).
