Apollo crew
We removed the septum between ham 3 and bsc 2, wraped in aluminum foil and ameristat, laid on a pallet. The bellows portion of the spool BE-3A was also removed and hard (aluminum) covers installed on both ends of said spool, and placed on a pallet. A aluminum cover was also installed on the rigid portion of BE-3A which is still connected to bsc 2. This spool will be removed tomorrow.

IOT2L ready for move (Kiwamu, Keita)

I and Kiwamu disconnected all cable connectors from IOT2L, and cleared the area around the table in preparation for IOT move.

LEXAN covers were put in place on the viewports.

Laser curtains/dividers were put aside in front of the PSL room and are leaning on the west wall.

Things that seemed to be for I/O purpose (labeled containers for IO mirrors, some mirrors and a couple of mirror holders) were put in front of Cheryl's desk.

When moving the table:

1. Do NOT crane it as it would be hazardous, they're not designed for this.  Unlike iLIGO tables, the legs of these are merely held down by claws.

2. One heavy cable bundle is still attached to the table by a zip tie. Break it first.

3. Two ducts are still trapped between the chamber and the table, though the duct clamps are loose. We need to keep these ducts.

PR2 AA chassis turned back on.
Arnaud P. and Mark B.

We noticed that the OSEMs on the M2 and M3 levels of PR2 were dead. Trending revealed that they had been dead since Tue 1/29. Richard investigated and found that the power to the AA chassis had not been turned back on after the power supply work that day (alog 5300). They're now back on and working.

We had probably set these before since these numbers were very close to the ones found in the medm.  Nonetheless, we updated the medm fields with these numbers and then set the AOSEMs to 50% OLV.  Mark and Arnaud have been obtaining spectra for PR3 and PRM, one of the last measurements to conclude Phase 2b testing.

Maintenance Summary

SEI ITMY: Vincent and Richard. Changed the h1isiitmy and h1hpiitmy models to agree with Ben's drawings. Rearranged the ADC cables at the rear of the IO Chassis as part of this change. WP 3699 is closed.

added h1seib2 to the Dolphin and DAQ networks.

Installed new channel list in the h1broadcast0 dmt data. Restarted DAQ.

Cleaned up the EDCU CDS channels to remove obsolete front ends and add new front ends.

Jim connected h1oaf0, h1lsc0,h1asc0 RFM to the two RFM switches (X and Y arm), this removed the IPC errors on these front ends.

Imported h2susauxb478 as a first release of h1susauxb123 (removed FMX,Y components).

Powered up h1susauxh34 now that the IO Chassis power supply problem was resolved.

Added h1susbs, h1iopsusauxb123, h1susauxb123, h1iopsusauxh34 and h1susauxh34 to the DAQ.

New IOP models (drawing cleanup and adding SVN Id and HeadURL tags) installed into: h1iopseib1, h1iopseib2, h1iopsusauxh34, h1iopsusauxh2, h1iopsusauxb123.

WP3713 remains open as Hugo did not get to loading the new HAM ISI and HPI models. This may be done later this week.

Reconfigure x1dc0 to use additional mx 10GE card
For x1dc0, removed the 3 slot PCIe riser card, installed a 4 slot PCIe riser.  Installed 3 10GE fiber cards, 1 IRIG-B card.  2 of the 10GE cards are configured for mx communication to the x1daq switch to allow testing of daqd software on multiple paths.  The x1daq switch is configured for 1 vlan for both 10GE fibers and all the front end computers.  Through experimentation, the following order of cards has been determined:

10GE mx :0

The merged plot attached below shows:-
pg1 - Y response of the structure to Y hammer impact excitations at various locations, from 1Hz to 400Hz.
pg2 - X response of the structure to X hammer impact excitations at various locations, from 1Hz to 400Hz.
pg3 - X response of the structure to X hammer impact excitations at various locations, ZOOMED IN from 50Hz to 400Hz.

For acceptance review, I reprocessed the data for the beamsplitter, after seeing a legend mismatch between the plotted results and the raw data from PULSE software.
Therefore the attached results below are the ones to look at, and are following the accelerometer axis convention represented on the last attachement

(2) BandK_results_Y_Exc.pdf

(3) Picture of BS with axis convention and hammer impact location

The X and Y hits have been chosen to correspond to the "Top Middle" hits on the picture

Those results in X to X (blue of 1st pdf) and Y to Y (green of 2nd pdf) are not showing any high Q resonnances below 150Hz, meaning the vibration absorbers are working as expected, and the test passed succesfully.

h1fw1 back after Sunday Afternoon crash

Dan M investigated the MSR SATABOY failure which occured at 15:23 Sunday afternoon. The system was performing a weekly maintenance task and crashed, it is a mystery why this happed this weekend. He took opportunity of the stopped system to perform the same firmware upgrades on the Sun box h1ldasgw1 as he did with h1ldasgw0 last week. The h1fw0 system is back up and running.

We noticed a mismatch in min trend saving periods, 60 mins for h1fw1 and only 30 mins for h1fw0. I changed h1fw0 to use 60 mins which will be applied on the next daq restart.

PR3 optic suspended

With the help of Gerardo 1 and 2, and Deepak, we used the ergo arm to stuff the PR3 optic into the suspension.  We then suspended the mass, adjusting roll and height to within the 1mm tolerance and 1mm.  Official height numbers coming shortly.  Deepak will tweek the top stage BOSEMs into center tomorrow and then we're ready for Phase 2b TFs.

betsy.weaver@LIGO.ORG - 10:10, Tuesday 12 February 2013 (5470)

We measured the diameter of the optic to be 265.1mm, while the vendor data posted on the CIT Nebula website shows 264.91 so we're in pretty good agreement.  We tweeked the height of the optic via adding 20g of mass to the top of the top mass, setting the bottom of the optic 26.6mm from the table surface.  This sets the center line of the optic at 158.75mm off of the table surface.  Nominal is 158mm as per the optomech layout drawing for PR3 on HAM2.

HAM-ISI - Viton Pads Efficiency Test

Viton pads are usually set under the balancing masses of the HAM-ISIs in order to damp resonances at high frequencies (above 100Hz).

The SEI team would like to asses the improvements that the Viton Pads help achieving. To do so, we decided to have viton pads under the balancing masses of the ISIs of LLO's IMC, and to try without those pads here at LHO.

Transfer functions were measured ovenight on LHO HAM3-ISI. We compared those transfer functions with the ones measured at LLO under an equivalent state:

Comparative plots are attached.

The script which produced the plots mentioned above was re-checked. The curves it displays match with the ouput of the generic commissioning scripts, for both LLO and LHO. 

Data in the 5Hz-200Hz range was retreived and added to the plot. Results are attached.

The results presented above were calibrated and transposed into the cartesian Basis, as performed during the step 3 of the commissioning process of HAM-ISIs.

Narrow peaks can still be seen on LLO's transfer functions. We held off on the installation of the Scraper Baffles here, while they were already on the ISI at LLO, at the time of the measurement. It could be the cause of it.

Once HAM3 chamber is open, we will look at the items installed on the ISI. It should help clarifying the cause those peaks that we did not witness here.

I attached a picture of HAM3 chamber taken on Dec 6th 2012. Pumpdown started on Dec. 21st.
