We went to the 25-pin D cable which connects to the TT1 quadropus and succeeded eventually in swapping pins 12/24 into the 13/25 positions.

1. The D-sub connector is a custom made LIGO part and so it doesn't at all work to use the standard pin extractor tools to move the pins out; we should have investigated this before spending all this time poking at and possibly damaging the existing connector.
2. To move the pins, we have to partially dis-assemble the connector and fish the pins/wires through the appropriate holes. Unfortunately, the design is such that we nearly lose all of the pins when trying to do this. Pictures describe the story better than words.
3. After the swap we tried to test the TT, but again wasted some time because the vac feedthrough was incorrectly labeled. The 25-pin feedthrough labeled as "PZT1" does not, in fact, connect to the TT. Instead, its the one slightly above it that is labeled "Pico". I have moved the PZT1 sticker up to match the actual connector. In order to discover this, we beeped through several stages of the coil driver, cable system. WE need to order some in-line D-sub breakouts for 25pin, 37pin, and 9pin which are similar to the ones we have now for 15pin. These are better than the green terminal block breakouts.
4. After this, we were able to see the TT move, but elected to leave the final piece of the work (determining which microD goes with which coil) to when Jamie gets back.
5. The TT screen is not good: it needs to be just like the usual sus screen so that we can put in offsets, excitations, etc. Perhaps also the ASC-TT screen can link to the TT:SUS screens. We can just copy the eLIGO TT screens to get going.
