Quad 3 Rough Alignment
We completed the Quad 3 rough alignment for both chains. Set up the optical lever and started on the fine alignment. Found the Reaction chain yawed relative to the Main chain and the structure, and adjusted the Top Stage blade angles to remove the yaw. We will work on setting the pitch tomorrow.

fb0w not writing frames while LDAS was down

H1 DAQ system.

LDAS were down due to  cooling issue in their server room. While the disk system for fb0w's frames were not available, fb0w was ran in partial mode (real time data only). LDAS have recovered their disk system and fb0w is now writing frame files again.

The data gap on nds0 is

08:50 H-R-982947008-32.gwf
11:37 H-R-982957024-32.gwf

For data in this period, please use nds2.

aLOG system maintenance tomorrow (Tues 1 Mar 2011)
The aLOG will be rebooted tomorrow after some routine system maintenance.

The reboot should happen at 10am Pacific time 1 Mar 2011.  Please save any entries you may be working on before that time.  The down time is expected to be a minute or two.

The system maintenance has been completed.
jonathan.hanks@LIGO.ORG - 21:48, Monday 28 February 2011 (583)
There is a fair chance that I will need to be elsewhere at 10 am Pacific.

The aLOG will be rebooted around 8:15 am Pacific on 1 Mar 2011.

Please be sure to save your entry before the reboot.

The chiller was running Friday and Saturday morning for the Corner station.  We lost the chiller some time on Saturday, but the CWP remained running at 45 Hertz, but there was no display on the controller panel.  I've turned off that pump, manually restarted CWP2 and Chiller 2 started.  Once temps return to normal we will turn the heat back on.

Corner Station HVAC
Due to a loss of communications to the chiller yard we have no chilled water to serve the LVEA and OSB. Temperatures were starting to climb so I have de-energized two heater circuits for the LVEA.

Ops Day Shift Summary
  • Cyrus altered (slightly) the IPs of the EX access controllers and got the system working again.
  • Preparations were made for removal of the H2 IO beam tubes, including removal of the ion pump near HAM11.
  • Oscar's tumbleweed baler broke this morning, so it's out for repairs.

Jumper settings for satellite boxes
The satellite boxes for the quad test stand have jumpers to select different modes of operation. When using the test stand to do noise tests on AOSEMs it may be convenient to change the jumpers on channels that normally look at BOSEMs, so as to be able to test as large a batch as possible. For future reference the attached photo shows the correct settings for BOSEMs. For AOSEMs (as on the quad PEM stage) move the jumpers to the opposite positions.

LHO Q3 Build
On Friday, we finished up rebuilding the Solid Stack with modified parts which allow for more head-room while working.  We helicoiled, and fit the Upper Structure with Top Masses, Top wires, and the necessary Table cloth walls.  
Joe O'Dell (RAL in the UK), Travis, and I continued working on the QUAD3 build today (Sun).  Joe loaded the Upper Structure onto the Solid Stack while we re-made a few sets of wire assemblies.  Joe also reset the UIM blade tips to the new heights of 15mm (nominal was 12mm).  We are working towards making a few measurements of lateral blade tip deflection while Joe is here, so we are currently building the QUAD with the following configuration.  The Reaction Chain will likely need to be refit to match the Main Chain after measurements are analyzed.  The Main Chain matches LLO's Q13 Build, and what they are working towards on Q14.  

MAIN CHAIN
Top Mass Weight = 22kg
UIM Weight = 22 kg
Top Mass Blade Tip Heights = 9.7mm shims (nominal was 6.7mm)
UIM Blade Tip Heights = 15 mm (nominal was 12mm)
Middle Wire Length = 2.7mm shorter than nominal
Bottom Wire Length = 3mm shorter than nominal

REACTION CHAIN
Top Mass Weight = 22kg
UIM Weight = 22 kg
Top Mass Blade Tip Heights = nominal at 6.7mm)
UIM Blade Tip Heights = nominal at 12mm
Middle Wire Length = nominal per D060516
Bottom Wire Length = nominal per D060516

We decided to proceed with making up the Reaction Chain as per the new parameter set, so it now has shorter wires to match the Main Chain.
