Abstract:
This document presents series of tests (Phase II) performed on the ISI-BSC1 (ITMY) after the ITMY quad suspension (in final configuration) was mated with the ISI and the ISI rebalanced.
Phase 2-a tests started in on October 24th 2012. Testing was completed on October 31st 2012.

******************************
All results appear satisfying, apart from a few test waived (will be done during phase II-b):
- Added mass on Stage 2 is more 36 kgs lighter than it used to be during testing (requirement is 25 kgs). We think the uncertainty on the loaded payload is such that this is not worrysome.
- Static tests in the Cartesian basis (redundant with the static test in the local basis)
- Linearity test: some corners have slightly different slopes but nothing strikingly alarming. We have seen in the past (HAM-ISI phase 2 testing) stronger slopes different, blamed on different cable lengths inside the LVEA.
- St 1 corner 2 actuators are wired in the opposite direction and St 2 corner 3 actuator cables are flipped. This can be corrected after the cartridge install.
---------------------------------------
Phase 2b testing was conducted between December 5th and December 17th 2012. The dome was approved to be closed and closed on December 17th 2012.

- St 1 corner 2 actuators are wired in the opposite direction in some of the static tests. This was corrected before closing the dome.
