Line 5: Line 5:
 * Mark, Fabian and Enzo continued BS Test Hang work:
  * 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.
  * 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. This can probably be made up easily by designing the 18 kg of extra mass appropriately.
  * 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 removed the end panels of the IRM to get access to the IM and rearranged the trim mass on the the IM to get it balance to bubble-level precision. (We still need to do fine pitch adjustment with the OL so that the BS is at the right angle, secure the trim mass properly and replace the IRM panels and OSEMs.)
 * Miyakawa-san and Yamamoto-san redid the cabling from the computer room to the PR2 rack and expected to finish by lunchtime on Friday.
 * 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.

==== Past week report ====
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry, Hirata-san):

 * Craned in the PI.
 * Assembled the thrust bearing holder that receives the PI-SF rod. (It originally had a burr that prevented the bearing from seating properly, and so required filing and re-cleaning.)
 * Hooked the SF and lowered the jacks under the SF to suspend the SF/... section.
 * The top filter rose when unlocked, and required about 1.8 kg to send it back down. Therefore we may be OK - the top filter seems to have about 8 kg more capacity than as measured by G&M. The hex cable clamp (≈0.25 kg) and the cables between the PI and SF still have to be added, but we can get an extra 3 kg by removing one of the three Cu damper segments (and rearranging the other two).
 * Built and installed three LBB blade units.
 * Kept debugging the SF LVDT. We repaired several broken wires, but it's still not behaving correctly.

Week of 5/1:
 * No activity (Golden Week).

Week of 5/8:
 * Work from Tuesday.
 * Remove PI temporarily.
 * Add magnets to upper SF damper ring.
 * Reinstall PI with damper ring.
 * Reinstall PI-SF rod, this time with hex cable clamp.
 * Install PI yaw stepper.
 * Wire up PI yaw and vertical steppers.
 * Route cables from SF to PI (may involve removing part of Cu damper).
