| * Mark, Fabian and Enzo continued BS Test Hang work: * We installed the BF fishing rod stepper motor adaptor cable. * We tried to install the BF LVDT cable but first we encountered trouble routing it, and then several wires broke at the D-Sub end. * We laid 6 in-air cables from the tank to the PR2 rank for BF and SF picos, steppers and LVDTs. * We lifted the BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS section to weigh it and check its balance. * It was 195.6 kg, which is 18 kg(!) less than the capacity of the SF. * There was a major imbalance in roll: with all four built-in trim masses moved up the +Y end, it still needed 270 g of extra trim mass to be level. * Unfortunately when we put the payload, the IM was slightly yawed and ended up on the horizontal EQ stop screws. This let the IM-BF maraging rod go slack, which disturbed the leveling of the IM (because every time it is picked up the maraging rod settles in a different place, giving a different suspension point). We may have to partly disassemble the IRM and rearrange the time mass on the the IM. * We shipped BS mirror box parts to Shoda-san and components for a new LVDT cable to Hirata-san. * We posed for pictures of the BS by a team from National Geographic. * Hirata-san * Did parts and fastener lists for the SR payload. * Did a 3D model with the SR suspension on the BS assembly frame (to help Mark make adjustments to the frame design). * Did 2D drawings of Fabian's concept for BS EQ stop parts. * Did a 3D model of a wire clamp with replaceable jaw parts (to avoid having to reuse parts with scars from pressure). * Did 2D drawings of a new wire clamps for on top of the BS and SR RMs. |
=== Type B (Mark) === ==== Past week report ==== * Hirata-san: * Worked on the PR optic removal jig. * Worked on getting modified quotes for PR/SR/BS parts. * Enzo-san * Worked on getting his drivers license. * Worked on getting familiar with the Type B circuit diagram. * Mark, Fabian (at Kamioka): * Tried different strategies for getting the IRM-IM EQ stops and IRM OSEMs to line up simultaneously. * Realized that the main problem was that the pitch of the BS had changed relative to the IM (presumably due to slight slippage of the wires) so the IM had to be pitched up by 16 mrad to get the BS pitched slightly down (4.7 mrad). * Took the sides off the IRM to get access to the clamps and tightened them to prevent further slips. * Rebalanced the IM to be level in pitch (and roll). * Reassembled the IRM and aligned the IRM-IM EQ stops - this time it was easy. * Adjusted the IRM and RM OSEMs to mid-range. * Got Kokeyama's new real-time model working and started TFs. ==== Plan for coming weeks ==== * Mark and Enzo come to Kamioka and work on rack and cabling. * Fabian works on design, including SR assembly frame. * Hirata-san works on procurement. |

Type B (Mark)
Past week report
- Hirata-san:
- Worked on the PR optic removal jig.
- Worked on getting modified quotes for PR/SR/BS parts.
- Enzo-san
- Worked on getting his drivers license.
- Worked on getting familiar with the Type B circuit diagram.
- Mark, Fabian (at Kamioka):
- Tried different strategies for getting the IRM-IM EQ stops and IRM OSEMs to line up simultaneously.
- Realized that the main problem was that the pitch of the BS had changed relative to the IM (presumably due to slight slippage of the wires) so the IM had to be pitched up by 16 mrad to get the BS pitched slightly down (4.7 mrad).
- Took the sides off the IRM to get access to the clamps and tightened them to prevent further slips.
- Rebalanced the IM to be level in pitch (and roll).
- Reassembled the IRM and aligned the IRM-IM EQ stops - this time it was easy.
- Adjusted the IRM and RM OSEMs to mid-range.
- Got Kokeyama's new real-time model working and started TFs.
Plan for coming weeks
- Mark and Enzo come to Kamioka and work on rack and cabling.
- Fabian works on design, including SR assembly frame.
- Hirata-san works on procurement.
