* Type B Past Week Summary - weeks of 8/22 and 8/29 * Fabian, Mark, Zhao-kun and Yokogawa-kun did BS installation at Kamioka: * Weighed the BF, SF and dummy BS (in mirror box). * Moved the geophones onto the optical table, clamped them down and took another time series for analysis. * Aligned the IM, installed the extra trim masses, tested the picos and weighed the whole assembly. * Placed vacuum flanges and cleaned D-Sub cables ready for routing to the rack. * Realigned and immobilized the optical table (which had been bumped). * Made safety improvements on the second floor (new safety rail, new arrangement of floor pieces, caution tape around holes) * Suspended the dummy BS. Currently however it is not hanging correctly, but is off in the +Y direction by several mm relative to the mirror box. * We set up the BS OL, using one of the wheeled chests of drawers as a base and using the OL breadboard from the PR2 assembly frame. * Hirata-san made a 3D assembly model for SR2 and added the optical design. * Hirata-san worked with Uchiyama-san to solve the 90° rotation problem. It turns out the "box" part with the pistons can be rotated, so we can build the SR2 according to the original design. * Hirata-san investigated the puzzle of the BF-IM maraging rods, where the 2D drawings and 3D CAD do not agree. Fortunately the actual parts seem to agree with the 3D CAD. * Hirata-san washed 3 OSEMs (last of initial 10 for BS) and parts for two BFs (for Type A). He moved the BF parts into the clean room and will assemble them with ATC staff from next Wednesday 9/7. * Type B ongoing issues * Longer cables for BF->PI and SF->PI - RECEIVED * Longer term to-do list * Decide position of BS rack - DONE * Do Inventor assembly for SR2 in chamber and on assembly frame (Hirata) - NEARLY DONE. * Write more of payload assembly procedure (Fabian) - ONGOING * Write more of 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]] (Mark) - ONGOING * Lower breadboard installation to be incorporated into the procedure document. * Work on BS simulation (Fabian) * 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 4/15 ==== * Fabian debugged a dead stepper on SR3 (broken driver channel) and a dead geophone on SRM (unplugged cable).

He made the `safe.snap` files in directories under `/opt/rtcds/kamioka/k1/target` into symbolic links to files in `/opt/rtcds/userapps/release/vis/k1/burtfiles`, alongside the setpoint files, so that they could be backed up to the SVN (as at LIGO). * Mark did major updates to his `vistools.py` Python package for manipulating the suspensions (based on his LIGO `sustools.py`).

Type B (Mark)
Report for the week of 4/15
- Fabian debugged a dead stepper on SR3 (broken driver channel) and a dead geophone on SRM (unplugged cable). He made another update to the table used by the Python script for the stepper driver MEDM screen to reflect the remapping.
- Fabian monitored the pumpdown and he and Hirata-san did post-pumpdown checks of all the suspensions. They were all healthy.
- Hirata-san participated in the health checks and learned about the computer systems.
Mark did major revisions to the MEDM menu on the OVERVIEW screen with scripts for making safe.snap files and snapshots of setpoints. He made the safe.snap files in directories under /opt/rtcds/kamioka/k1/target into symbolic links to files in /opt/rtcds/userapps/release/vis/k1/burtfiles, alongside the setpoint files, so that they could be backed up to the SVN (as at LIGO).
Mark did major updates to his vistools.py Python package for manipulating the suspensions (based on his LIGO sustools.py). He added entries for Type B suspensions to the internal database and added commands for manipulating SET and DCCTRL blocks. He also added commands to simulate pressing on the CLEAR HISTORY and LOAD COEFFICIENTS buttons.
Mark started updating the TYPEB.py Guardian definition file to use vistools.py. So far only the ENGAGING_IP_CONTROL state has been fully rewritten and tested, but other states will be simple adaptations. It should be easy to do Type A and other Guardians in the same style.
Plan for week of 4/22
- Mark, Terrence at Kamioka Mon-Fri.
- Fabian at Kamioka Mon-Thu.
- Work with Lucia to do blending of the IP LVDTs and geophones.
- More Guardian improvements.
Improve vistools.py (add more useful functions; add docstrings; add support for Type A/Bp/C; create test suite).
Finish and test new Guardian code using vistools.py.
- 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).
- Work on Type B paper.
- Tidy up.
- Gather and clean tools.
- Gather and organize unused parts and fasteners.
Vacation/Travel Info
