Progress report

Type-A

Past week report

• Sato-san started the design of limit switch for FR.

Plan for coming weeks

Type B

Past week report

• I modified the real-time model in order to accomodate bandpass fillters and new DAQ channels. See 11788.

  • For the most part I used the same scheme as Type A.
  • As agreed in the previous meeting I added a matrix ramp switch in order to transit from velocity damping to bandpass filters.
  • The medm screen was modified accordingly.
  • I realized yesterday I hadn't added a monitor for the output of the new filters banks in the EUL basis. It's been added to the real-time model, it compiles but still has to be installed.
  • Real-time models for SR suspensionsmust be compiled and installed.

• Together with Terrence I modified vistools in order to generate functions to manipulate added filter banks. See 11788.

  • The future of vistools looks quite gray (the code is complicated, not commented and we don't know how to manipulate matrix switches). Some will likely be in regular Guardian.
  • I began adding code for the OBSERVATION state in a draft file.
• There was an agreement with Okutomi-san to change Type B medm screens for something more illustrative of the signal paths.
• The temperature in the BS area has increased. It's been lately between 23.7 and 23.8 degrees. The actuation on the top filter used to be -23,000 counts and is now -13,500 counts.

• Yamada-kun and Yokozawa-san measured transfer functions from BS to DARM and calculated the noise contribution. See 11676, 11724, 11707.

  • The results are affected by an error in the calibration and are yet to be corrected.

  • The contributions of TM_DAMP_L and TM_DAMP_Y were considered to be high. These filters are supposed to be off in OBSERVATION state. See this plot.

  • These filters were rolled-off and the a new estimation was calculated. See this other plot.

  • The roll-off of TM_DAMP_Y was conservative.

• Ushiba-san turned off BS TM-L DAMP filter for the FPMI state (11783). It may have been affecting the sensitivity.

• For the purposes of ASC the diagonalization of the TM actuation with respect to the oplev was removed by commissioners and replaced by their own coil balancing and drivealign diagonalization. I couldn't find a klog for this
• Disassembled the mirror hanging jig and transported it to Mitaka (Hirata).

Plan for coming weeks

• Compile and install SR real-time models.
• People have begun to modify or turn off filters which are supposed to be off in OBSEVATION state, maybe I should aim to design the bandpass filters and then implement the Guardian OBSERVATION state.
