| * Type B Past Week Summary * Mark and Hirata-san worked at Kamioka, with valuable help from Enzo (on loan from Type Bp team). * We got all the adapter cables for the BF made (Hirata-san did some work on Monday at Mitaka). * We installed the extension for the BF yaw pico on the IM pico adapter cable. * We got all the in-vacuum and in-air cabling for the IM OSEMs done. * We tried to install the stepper and LVDT adapter cables but realized we didn't have enough information on which wires was which. (We later tracked this info down but did not have time to do anything with it - we would have needed to do the rest of the in-vacuum and in-air cabling and set up the stepper motor and LVDT drivers, so we concentrated on the OSEMs.) * We plugged in the IM OSEMs, set gains and offsets, and did a noise test (analysis and klog pending). * We mounted the OSEMs on the IRM and routed the cabling neatly. * We released the suspension. * We adjusted the OSEM mounting plates to center the OSEMs on the flags. * We adjusted the OSEMs in/out to midrange. * The suspension is now ready for OSEM-OSEM TFs! |
=== Type B (Mark) === ==== Past week report ==== At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san): * We improvised a solution for ballast mass on the BF, using some heavy dog clamps meant for pedestals, washed and wrapped in foil. We we use them for the duration of the BS Test Hang and then swap them out for custom masses. * We put back the original BF jacks (replacing the cantilevered jacks that had been borrowed from the SF level to allow access to the BF blade screws). * We rearranged the BS rack, closing the gaps between boxes (per request of Miyakawa-san. We also renumbered some boxes, connectors and cables so as to use zero-based numbering (#0, #1, #2,...) throughout. * We routed the OSEM cables into the external cable rack (rather than through the PR2 area). * We connected up the BF LVDT, and BF fishing rod stepper motor. * We installed a signal generator for the LVDT. * We connected the super motor driver box to the Internet and attempted to set it up, but with no success so far. * We found the final picomotor driver (we have been using the one from TAMA in the clean booth). * We found many items that we will need soon, including the copper ring for the SF. * We found issues with the digital system (the computer driving the rack had been changed from k1pr2 to k1bs, which causes problems) and worked with DGS to fix them. It now mostly works but the real-time model crashes from time to time. ==== Plan for coming weeks ==== Next week: * Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Thursday. * Work on electronics, possibly suspend and weigh BF.

Past week report
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san):
- We improvised a solution for ballast mass on the BF, using some heavy dog clamps meant for pedestals, washed and wrapped in foil. We we use them for the duration of the BS Test Hang and then swap them out for custom masses.
- We put back the original BF jacks (replacing the cantilevered jacks that had been borrowed from the SF level to allow access to the BF blade screws).
- We rearranged the BS rack, closing the gaps between boxes (per request of Miyakawa-san. We also renumbered some boxes, connectors and cables so as to use zero-based numbering (#0, #1, #2,...) throughout.
- We routed the OSEM cables into the external cable rack (rather than through the PR2 area).
- We connected up the BF LVDT, and BF fishing rod stepper motor.
- We installed a signal generator for the LVDT.
- We connected the super motor driver box to the Internet and attempted to set it up, but with no success so far.
- We found the final picomotor driver (we have been using the one from TAMA in the clean booth).
- We found many items that we will need soon, including the copper ring for the SF.
- We found issues with the digital system (the computer driving the rack had been changed from k1pr2 to k1bs, which causes problems) and worked with DGS to fix them. It now mostly works but the real-time model crashes from time to time.
Plan for coming weeks
Next week:
- Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Thursday.
- Work on electronics, possibly suspend and weigh BF.
Week after next:
- Everyone (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san) at Kamioka, Monday-Friday.
- Add SF and suspend BF.
