Line 5: Line 5:
 * Hirata-san produced a near-final Inventor assembly of the BS on the assembly frame, for use in writing the assembly procedure.
  * Includes assembly frame modifications suggested by Mirapro, including feet, wheels, lifting eyes, thicker crossbars under BF, IM etc.
  * Includes final rail system except for interface plate to mirror box.
  * Includes full PI with ballast masses.
  * Includes cable clamps.
  * Includes correct versions of BF and SF.
  * Includes new BF pushrod parts to work around different placement of blade screws in new version of BF.
  * Includes cleanbag support bars.
  * Includes key parts of mirror box (enough to check for interference) - needs more work.
  * Does not include various invisible duplicate assemblies that had been present due to cut and paste.
  * After a few more improvements, the new assembly will be sent back to Mirapro.
 * Got status from Miyakawa-san on electronics - there should be enough of the boxes AEL is supplying.
 * Cleanbag design was finalized; Aso-san is ordering: [[attachment:160419-チャンバーカバーⅡ型.pdf]]
 * Quote for flags and prisms was received, but expensive - may drop rigid flag design.
 * The mirror box will require only very minor modifications for flags and prisms - Tatsumi-san will arrange immediately.
 * Fabian worked on understanding Sekiguchi-san's control design to help decide optimum wire thickness.
 * Mark worked on install procedure and schedule.
 * Takahashi-san enquired with NIKHEF about oscillator cards for LVDT chassis - lead time would be 3-4 months.

=== Type B (Mark) ===
==== Past week report ====
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san):
 * With help from Kokeyama-san and Miyakawa-san, we debugged a problem with the real-time model freezing, which turned out to be the IO chassis shutting down because of brownout condition from an overloaded AC circuit. A combination of extra boxes added to the rack, plus surge current from the air shower could draw the full 20 A limit of the circuit. Awai-san ran a cable to a separate circuit and we moved the IO chassis onto that.
 * We got the stepper motor cabling and driver working, and tested the BF fishing rod stepper motor.
 * We got the LVDT cabling, driver and associated parts of the real-time model working.
 * We suspended the BF and payload to check the weight and balance after adding balance mass. The weight was spot-on and the balance was OK (about as expected and close enough to be corrected). However the height and balance of the IM was disturbed again.
 * Fabian worked on the redesign of the ballast masses.
 * Hirata-san found all the parts for the SF and the SF section of the security structure, and prepared the SF. However we then removed the Cu ring from the top cap for recleaning.
 * We worked with Sawada-san to get the wheels removed from the large stepladders so that could be put closer to the assembly frame for comfort and safety.
 * We cleaned up after a water leak from the ceiling.
 * We straightened the hexagonal poles in the bottom level of the security structure, in preparation for adding the new EQ stops for the RM.

==== Plan for coming weeks ====
Next week:
 * Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday.
 * Readjust height and balance of BF+payload, add SF.
 * Get picomotor driver working.
Week after next:
 * Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday.
 * Continue adding SF and suspend BF.
