I started work familiarizing myself with the ELOG and some of the control systems at the 40m. I spent a fair bit of time gaining some general knowledge of the interferometer, control systems, calibration, null instruments, etc. On Friday, June 22 Yaakov and I spent the afternoon pulling cables for the beatbox that Jamie had finished up. We were able to get the cables from the rack containing the beatbox routed to the control room.

Then I started work on calibrating the beatbox. I set up the function generator to send a sine wave into the beatbox, then sent the signal from the beatbox to the oscilloscope. I compared both the input sine wave and the output from the beatbox at many frequencies, taking peak to peak measurements. I'm working on using the data to calibrate the beatbox now.
