This work falls under permit number 3833.

This afternoon we installed new EPICS IOC code for the dust monitors in /ligo/apps/linux-x86_64/epics-3.14.12.2_long_sc. The module code is met_one_227b-1.0.0 and the IOC code is dust_met_one_227b-1.0.1. The targets are in /ligo/lho/h0/target. The IOCs are running on h0epics2.

The code changes the channel names as follows:

H0:PEM-LVEA_DST$(ID)_3             ->  H0:PEM-CS_DUST_LVEA$(ID)_300NM_PCF

Dave renamed the minute trend files to reflect these changes (directory name mapping is in the attached text file).
The medm screens, autoBurt.req files and the alarm handler configuration file were also updated to match these changes.

I also removed the transient period for showing alarms in the alarm handler configuration file, updated the guidance and added some dust monitor locations.

The new IOC code also fixes a division error when the sampling time is zero in the particles per cubic foot calc records.

TO DO: I still need to update the alarm limits and severities.

The Apollo crew got the Dome installed this afternoon.  Once the Dome was over head and all the covers were removed, Jim unlocked the ISI and we inspected the cable routing.  Here are a few photos to record the cable dressing.

Richard & I did some quick diagnosis and then pull the Pier pod from corner3.  So we have no HEPI positioning monitoring on corners 3 or 4.  Corner 4 gets its power from corner3.  Please mind all the BSC2 dial indicators.

- IO at HAM2 working on closing out alignment work, done.
- Travis - Dog clamps required on BSC2 ITM Elliptical baffles.
- Changed mats 
- SUS-IM models went down due to timing error, restored the front end to 4AM this morning per IO request.
- PCAL in the H2 enclosure
- Dome placed on BSC2

There was some discussion WRT options and timing for moving the BSC ISI from the staging building to X End. Mark Layne will pursue getting a flat bed on-site by Monday, 29 April, for ISI transport. 

The fit check of the Test Stand cleanroom was completed and the cleanroom moved from over the beamtube. The test stand cleanroom was partially (3/4) re-assembled. The IAS table was dis-assembled and relocated to the gate valve area. All remaining items needed from Y End were moved to X End. Half of the work platforms were assembled around BSC9.

Mark Layne was informed ~ 1:30 that all sub-systems had signed off on BSC2, so the Apollo crew was re-called from X End for dome replacement. The dome was in place by 3:15 and the bolts are being torqued now. Hard covers will be installed before the crew leaves today. 

Below, please find the checklist that Apollo is using to sequence their close-out activities.

1.	Remove Walking Plates from BSC 2 (Place in E-Mod Staging Cleanroom)-done
2.	Replace dome on BSC2 (Check with SEI first: unlock ISI check cables-done
3.	Place hard cover on BSC2/HAM3 spool openings-in progress
4.	Install curtains on HAM3 cleanroom
5.	Move BSC cleanroom to beamtube by East Bay pipe bridge
6.	Dis-assemble Work Platform (Place on floor by BSC7)
7.	Move HAM3 cleanroom north as far as possible
8.	Close gaps in cleanroom to contain BSC2 spool area
9.	Move SEI related electronics over center of spool area
10.	Insert small spool piece
11.	Insert large spool piece
12.	Install HAM3 east door
13.	Move cleanroom from pipe bridge area to HAM4-plug in-turn on
14.	Call for HAM4 cleaning
15.	Install HAM2/1 east doors
16.	Install HAM 2/3 west doors
17.	Install BSC1 viewports
18.	Remove HAM4 north door
19.	Install blank on septum plate between BSC2 and HAM4
20.	Install HAM4 north door

The ITMy elliptical baffle has had its 2 dog clamps installed.  The ITMx baffle has only had one of its 2 dog clamps installed due to the presence of SUS dog clamps.  Per the direction of the install lead, we will leave these dog clamps as is until the hole pattern issue is resolved and the dog clamps can be correctly installed. 

I added the biquad=1 flag to the cdsParameters block of the following models, and did a make (but not a make install yet) to test for successful compilation. All were OK, so I svn committed them. I'll do a make install later, when people are done for the day.

- PRM bias relief was successful:

- PRM alignment is good, with one issue with the IOP watchdog when parked:

New aligned biases that send REFL to HAM1 are:
P = -830
Y = -50

New parked biases that send REFL to it's parking spot through the baffle on the viewport on the top of HAM2 are:
P = -330
Y = -6100

The parked position of PRM will trip the IOP DC watchdog, and HIFO will run with the PRM parked most of the time, so this needs a solution.  The PRM is damped when it's parked, so one solution might be to give it it's own IOP watchdog.

- AOE2 which is in front of IM4, and is currently just a baffle, was moved by 1-2mm in the -X direction on HAM2.  This was necessary to allow the parked REFL beam to pass through the baffle with enough clearance to withstand small beam position changes and not clip.  The forward beam is off centered on that baffle aperture in order to accommodate the parked REFL beam, and has plenty of clearance to withstand small beam position changes.

- Pictures of iris alignment clamps left attached to the HAM tables were taken.   These alignment clamps are in front of MC1, MC2, and MC3, and PR2, and on MC3 Trans, and PRM Trans.

The h1sush2b front end encountered a timing error this morning at 08:48 local time. The IRIG-B timing diag went into the 1800 range immediately. There was no error at the IO Chassis end, a restart of the IOP model cleared the error. After restarting the user model h1susim I BURT restored it to 4am as per Cheryl's request.

The attached script is a quick calculation of the ABCD matrices from the MC waist and IM1, IM2, IM3, IM4 to PRM that Keita asked for yesterday. It is based on optics coordinates found in T080078-05  (written in 2008)  It doesn't take into account the angle of incidence on the curved mirrors.  
If someone from IO has done a more careful job or used more up to date coordinates, it might be useful to send a link. 

Cheers, Sheila

---- punchline - tilt of the table causes 0.8 mm beam displacement at MC2/HAM3, and all numbers are within the stated spec. of 1600 counts change (well, one is 1628 counts).

These numbers are much smaller than the numbers for HAM2.

---- punchline here is that this shows that changing the payload one HAM2 did change the position of the ISI table while it was locked.

Attached is a graphic of the table rotation, for HAM2 and HAM3, as I understand it.  Arrow length corresponds to the change, and can be compared between HAM2 and HAM3.

It is not occulting the POP-ALS beam path.

Summary:

MC alignment as well as IMs are very good. The beam hits the center of PRM and PR2. 

With this good alignment, when we steer PRM so that the REFL goes back to HAM1 without clipping, PRM alignment offsets are now 3395urad for PIT and 50urad for YAW. The largest DAC output decreased from -126000 counts (almost railing) to about -10750  -100750 counts,  so it's somewhat better but not that much. It seems like PRM really tilted.

At this point, PRM offset should be released, and after that right PRM offset should be re-established.

What was done:

1. Both pico mirrors and fixed mirror upstream of MC1 were used to center the beam on MC2 as well as on MC1 (mostly MC2).
2. MC2 was aligned so the single-bounce beam off of MC2 comes to a correct position in HAM2.
3. Used MC3 and MC1 to refine MC alignment. Excellent 00 flashes.
4. Used IM1 and IM2 so the forward-going beam goes through Faraday input and output aperture at roughly the same positions as before. No clipping.
5. Used IM3 to bring the beam to the center of PRM, and IM4 to center the bean on PR2, and iterate.
6. Align PRM to center the REFL beam on the baffle hole for HAM1 beam path.

Observation after the above:

• PRM PIT offset was reduced but it was still large.
• We didn't check if the beam was hitting PR3 (cannot, the beam is huge and the power is small), but the reflection off of PR2 was at a reasonable location in HAM3.
• The beam is too close to the center of the baffle in front of IM4. This is not a good thing according to Cheryl, as the baffle is designed such that when PRM is misaligned in YAW to direct the REFL beam to the parking beam dump, both the forward and backward (REFL) beams are equally away from the baffle edge. It seems like the baffle itself could move toward HAM1 by 2mm or so.

What was further done:

1. Misalign PRM to direct the REFL beam to the parking beam dump. PRM offsets railed and the beam was still not centered on the baffle hole for the beam dump.

What needs to be done:

1. Relieve PRM bias.
2. Align PRM so we have a nice refl beam again.
3. Confirm that we can misalign PRM to park the beam.
4. Move the baffle in front of IM4 somewhat closer to HAM1 and confirm that there's no clipping.

What doesn't need to be done:

1. Revisit beam paths to IOT2L viewports. It's impossible for these beams to miss the viewports by these tiny changes (tiny in comparison to the viewport size).
2. Revisit POP QPD sled (PRM-PR2 line is good), MC2 trans QPD (the beam is centered on MC2 so the transmission will hit the QPD), and SM2 trans QPD (lever arm is small so this change would not make the beam completely miss the QPD). We will use picos once things are under vacuum.

Vincent restarted suspension/seismic models

We (JimW & I) locked up the HEPI to safeguard the ISI/SUS from external influences such as Walking Plate removal & Dome installation.  We found the Pier3 IPS unresponsive at -3200 cts.  We locked it up using the dial indicators.

BSC-ISI common model was updated. I modifided the master model and a couple of MEDM screens. Changes were commited (rev 4230 for model and re 4231 for MEDM screen). 

A correction was made on the T240 calibration gain and binary outputs block was modified to control STS-2s centering proccess. Overview and BIO screens were modified as well.

New codes were installed on BSCs 1 2 3 6.

Since further work continued in the chamber last week, the final chamber closeout had not been completed.  After checking for task completions for the final, final time, I went in and

1) checked for tools (none found, good)

2) removed the in-chamber stool

3) took a few more pix

4) re-inspected the naked BS optic (yep, dirty @ ~1-3 particles per square inch in many regions of both HR and AR face - some there prior to last week)

5) wiped my way out of chamber

6) placed verticle 1" witness optic under the BS suspension.

For the 35W beam.
