[Torrey, Daniel]
We put the Faraday Isolator and the 50:50 fiber beam splitter in the 3D printed holders I made and put them in the 19" electronics rack box. We attached the cables together, so now the inside of the rack box is completed. Now we need to mount the rack box into the rack space under the seeder and connect the electronics and fibers.
Jeff and I installed the seeder in the rack below the tables. Note that whoever made this rack did not uniformly space the screw holes. The seeder box is as close as it can be to the amplifier due to the first couple sets of holes being incompatible. We plugged the laser's DC power supply into the delay 1 slot on the furman. We also plugged in the amplifier input fiber to the output of the 50:50 BS, and the laser pick off (pre amplifier) into the other port of the 50:50 BS. We put the fibers above the amplifier so that when the seeder rack is pulled out nothing gets pulled. The other end of the laser pick off is currently mounted here.
While we were rooting around underneath the tables, I noticed the amplifier interlock bypass was unplugged and on the floor some distance away from the amplifier. It also looks slightly damaged (forgot to take a pic, the part that is not plugged into the amplifier was fairly bent). This is probably from the chaos of the flood.
