* les vérins de 20mm (axe Z) ont été testés sur table grace à une rallonge SUB-C - DB9, au chassis ISP et au soft
SUPERVISEUR écrit en labwindows CVI par Didier.
pour rappel, la course soft va de -1 650 000 à +1 650 000 pour 20mm de course, soit 0.6mm pour 100 000 de course soft. |

test des vérins ISP 20mm et 6mm, posted by Ronic Chiche at Optical room about mechanics | cabling

Après avoir utilisé la chaine : driver ISP - cable ISP DB9 - Feedthrough enceinte DB9-DB9 - cable perlé DB9-SUB-C - Capsule SUB-C,
l'ensemble de tous les vérins 6mm et 20mm ont été testés => ils fonctionnent TOUS.
Les vérins 6mm ont TOUS subis un HOME. cette commande cherche une fin de course du vérin et le place ensuite en position médianne. |

Un petit CR de la journée:
Nous avons effectué une détection de fuite sur l'ensemble des cavités optiques. Une fuite très importante a été |

Je vous fais le bilan des actions effectuées :
1/ La mécanique a été remontée avec changement des billes céramiques, soufflet défectueux, ect... |

Bonjour,
Tous les vérins sont maintenant OK ! Merci Ronic. |

Mail de Bruno Mercier du 19/11/2018 :
Une première cavité a été étuvée, la pression est actuellement de
3.10-10 mbar, l' étuvage
de la deuxième cavité vient de commencer et se
finira en début de la semaine prochaine.
Bonne journée,

End of vacuum test and cavity ready for cleaning, posted by Loïc Amoudry at Optical room about vacuum
|
Vacuum tests finished on 19 december 2018.
Spent last two days to discuss the importance of removing aluminium and baking wires before to insert mirrors for cleanliness issues. Finally
we took pictures to support our demand. |

Cleaning outside IP cavity, posted by Loïc Amoudry at Optical room about lasers and optics | utilities

From 7th january to 11th january.

Mirrors checked with binocular microscope, posted by Loïc Amoudry at Optical room about lasers and optics
|
29/01/19 - ThomX mirrors have also been checked with binocular microscope. They shown the same spots as S-BOX mirrors.
1st image shows reflective face of a spherical mirror.
2nd image shows reflective face of M1 (sapphire). |

Basic alignment & alignment motors check, posted by Loïc Amoudry at Optical room about mechanics | lasers and optics
|
14/02/19: The 4 motors but Mby control works. Mby motor home does not bring it to its "middle" position but to the end of its range.
Issue circumvented using the higher rights software.
The beam is now going through the cavity windows (from P1 to S2). |

Motors connexions, posted by Loïc Amoudry at Optical room about mechanics
|
Motors are connected. The true mirror's name are P1 for injection mirrors, S2, S3 and P4. (S=spherical, P=planar).
They are still some old schemes (and notations on the cavity) which mention M1, M2, M3 and M4. I make the link here:
M3 = P1 |

Beam size and finesse, posted by Loïc Amoudry at Optical room about lasers and optics
|
FSR initiale : 33.34 MHz (S3 = -825000 et S4 = -825000)
Beam size initiale : wx=2.05mm et wy=2.15mm
Finesse initiale : 3400 |
|
Motors Z axis reversed, posted by Loïc Amoudry at Optical room about mechanics
|
S2 and S3 z-axis are initially at 1/4 (5mm/20mm) of there range over ~20mm range. This is meant to be able to spread them up to ~15mm in case of
thermal effect.
Actually, they are in an opposite position. Means that they can only be spread of 5mm from the initial position. |
|
Cavity at atm pressure, posted by Loïc Amoudry at Optical room about lasers and optics | vacuum
|
Dry air injected into the cavity.
Lock has been proceeded without any trouble. ~~4000 finesse. Considered to be the same than before.
x and y motors axis put back to the last "cavity at air" position. z position kept at maximum distance between spherical mirrors. |

Check of mirrors and coating directions, posted by Loïc Amoudry at Optical room about lasers and optics
|
Direction of HR face of P1 and P4 have been checked, there was no problem. The mirrors are in the good direction and the coating is on the good face.
Once P1 and P4 outside of the cavity, we checked the coating position by sending the HeNe laser with an angle. There was two reflections and
the most intense was the one closer to the normal to the mirror. |

Wires in laser path, posted by Loïc Amoudry at Optical room about mechanics | lasers and optics | cabling
|
| There was some ceramic wires close to the beem path right before P4. We moved them away (we can imagine they could move again with vibration). |
|
Motors Z axis reversed, posted by Loïc Amoudry at Optical room about mechanics
|
All Z motors (for P1, S2, S3 and P4) have been initialized again with a proper HOME command with their own controller with the "superviser"
software (which means they all moved to the +1650000 position).
Thus, they have been moved to their default position : +825000 for spherical mirrors (S2 and S3) and -825000 for plan mirrors (P1 and P4). |
