TCS status

Quick summary of progress:

TCSX:
Laser was operated for a few hours on Monday with an output power of ~58.5W. Optics have been mounted and placed in position on the table. This table is now ready for alignment.

TCSY:
Optics/mounts have been staged, and are ready for table installation. Cabling is almost complete. Attempts were made on Wednesday to operate the laser/test the output power, however this was unable to be performed due to a fault with the paddlewheel flow meter (amongst other interlock/laser controller issues that are still to be tracked down). Some additional cabling is still to be installed. 

TCSX/Y periscopes have been partially assembled, still to track down one last component. Socket head cap screws with lower profile heads have been ordered, as it was observed that the cap screws for the periscope base sit proud.

TCSY paddle wheel flow sensor power checked and settings confirmed. Still unable to display water flow value. Will need to remove from system and check operation on the bench and/or replace.

DavidH/Greg : Paddle wheel flow sensor removed, tested and was found to be working as expected. Reinstalled/reseated and now appears to be working correctly. As per installation instructions, for this install no teflon tape was used... previously used tape was removed.
