Day 3 Wednesday 24 July 2013

We experienced difficulties with the videoconnection which is needed for communication with the control room. 
Also the small panels required a lot of time. Nevertheless, we finished PentiDisc up to the 6 suspension points.
We tested the electrical circuitry and measured a lifting speed of 15.5 cm/sec.

In the picture, the steelwires for the three-point suspension system are visible.

In the evening, Dirk, Jim and Paul van de Veen did another 70 C panels. Instead of 220 now only 150 to finish!
We also checked and finished work on a cabled video connection.
