Tasks for Vent of Fall 2020

* Primary objective - re-glue broken magnet on ETMY and re-suspend it.

  1. Take back the 70% light split off to the OMC in the AS path.
  2. Investigate TT hysterisis [low priority as this would require 3rd door to be off].

Tasks for Vent of May 2019

  • Primary objective - Suspension diagnosis

    1. Fix ETMY (one eigenmode missing?) and ITMY (frequently gets stuck) suspension
    2. Check that the AS beam exits the vacuum cleanly. Take back the 70% light split off to the OMC in the AS path.
    3. Investigate TT hysterisis

Tasks for next vent after Aug 30 2017 - not in any particular order

  • Installing new RC folding mirrors, PR3 and SR3 (we need to get the actual optics + new Tip-Tilt suspension design)
  • Flip existing PR2 and SR2
  • Installation of Ruby standoffs for selected optics (we need to get a better magnet gluing fixture ready)
  • MC1 suspension inspection and fixing
  • ITMX magnet re-gluing
  • Baffling (?)
  • Installation of steering mirrors to facilitate viewing of optic faces with GigE cameras
  • FC cleaning

Prep for next vent

(1) Dichroic mirror replacements for PR3 and SR3

(2) IO Active tip-tilts (Suresh/Jamie)

  • Suresh is going to LHO April 15-25 for assembly/shipping of tip-tilts

  • tip-tilts:
    • tip-tilts from LHO

    • bake

    • assemble

    • add mirrors
    • level
  • in-vac cables (quadrapuses)
    • ship parts to RND Cables

    • place order with RND Cables

    • bake
  • electronics:
    • gather components:
      • DAC
      • anti-image filters
      • dewhite filters
      • coil drivers
      • eurocrate
      • cables
    • install
    • test in DAQ

(3) Black glass beam dumps

(4) OSEM mount screws

  • requirements:
    • Hex-top, longer, sliver-plated
    • Qty = 100
    • No-plastic
  • final design

  • manufacture

  • bake

  • ready to install

(5) New periscope plate

  • manufacture

  • bake

  • ready to install

  • need shorter pedestals for green PBS and beam dump

(6) Cavity scattering measurements? (Jan)

(7) Loss Measurements

  • Improve resolution in the scope
  • Configs to measure:

    • X-arm misaligned
      • validate insensitivity to misalignment
    • Y-arm misaligned
      • validate insensitivity to misalignment
    • ~3-5 different beam positions each
  • Analysis

    • Sources of error?

(8) OMC Commissioning

  • Electronics

    • DB-? cables from the DAC to HV drives
    • Goal is to align onto OMC trans PDs
    • Extra PD on AS table can be used for 'backup' in-air PD
  • Locking Script

    • Scan the OMC cavity before the vent, make sure script works
    • Lock before vent to ensure procedure makes sense.
  • Chambers to Open

    • OMC Chamber only
  • Align into PDs

    • Lock OMC using OMC REFL signal
    • Align transmitted beam into TRANS PDs
    • Will require ~1 day of work
  • Backup Plan

    • If the PDs don't work as expected, steer beam to the AS table
    • Rotate and move (+x) SM5, which directs the beam to the TRANS PDs
    • Beam will come out near the current AS beam
    • may have to remove one extra steering mirror (SM5 trans PO)

(9) Review IP{ANG,POS} alignment/closeup proceedure
