{Yehonathan, Anchal}

I released the AS1 wires from the winches, removed the adapter from the SOS tower, and removed the Lambda optic from the adapter. Attachment 1 shows the pencil markings on the optic before cleaning. I cleaned the pencil marking from the side of the optic with acetone using swabs until there were no pencil residues on the swab (attachment 2 shows the swab I used next to an unused swab). I was not able to remove the markings completely though (attachment 3).

I remounted the optic with the arrow rotated by 90 degrees counterclockwise.

We hang the adapter on the winches and adjust the height of the magnet and the adapter roll using the winches. We monitor the height of the adapter using a live stream from the Cannon camera. The camera's tilt was adjusted using straight features on the SOS tower. When we ran out of winch travel we adjust the height using the lower EQ stops and pull tight the wires. Attachment 4 shows the alignment of the side magnet with respect to the SOS tower and a side OSEM.

We checked the ghost beam trajectory and it looks much better (attachment 5)

We started realigning the OpLev. We realize that the height of the beam should be 5+14/32" = 5.437 by measuring the height of the screw holding the side OSEM from the table. The real height from the schematics is 5.425 We make the beam parallel with the table first using an iris and then the QPD.

Today, I balanced the counterweight. First using an iris, then by placing a QPD close to the SOS measuring the reflection from AS1. I locked the counterweight's set screw and the QPD Y readout looks good. Attachment 6 shows the QPD y readout near the beat node between pitch and pos. The node comes very close to zero which indicates that the pitch is balanced.

I measured the free-swinging motion using the QPD x and y axes. Attachment 7 shows the spectra of that motion. The major peaks are at 755mHz, 953mHz, and 1.05Hz.
