==Photos== | |||
*Going through the photos that Andy and Brigette took yesterday and putting part no's and descriptions on them | |||
* [[User:Andy Maloney|Andy Maloney]] 20:56, 15 July 2009 (EDT): Really good job by the way. | |||
==Optical Table== | |||
*Turns out that the epoxy that I coated the one valve/controller with popped while Ant, Larry and I were looking over the table and trying to level it | |||
*As such, I redid 2 coats of epoxy | |||
*There was also a problem with it staying still (since the valve thing was not designed for that table, someone jerry rigged some kind of mounting system that really sucks) | |||
**In this event, Larry and I used cable ties to try to keep it still | |||
**We also made a large "stopping arm" for the lever that controls air flow | |||
*The table floats relatively quiet now and there were no leaks at the end of the day | |||
**Will need to check it again tomorrow and eventually replace this faulty valve/controller thing | |||
==New DAQ== | |||
*Koch has a new USB DAQ board on loan from someone here @ CHTM | |||
*I have it hooked up to Kochlab-DAQ2 | |||
*Only tested the 0 pin on the sum signal on the QPD | |||
**To test the QPD, i turned on the power supplies and then the halogen lamp. | |||
**I can see on the screen (using NI measurement and automation program) that is I increase the amount of light the diaphragm lets out I get higher signal on the QPD | |||
==Koch's Office Comp== | |||
*Koch and I moved his office computer into the new lab to act as the camera controller | |||
*It turns out that the USB card that is in his computer doesnt appreciate the camera. | |||
**Important for all the computers in the lab with said card, if possible, attach important items into the port that is attached to the mother board | |||
*It goes really fast and runs larry's program just fine | |||
