SOHO Daily Meeting April 9, 1996 Notes taken by Joseph Michels, UVCS Announcements: ECS software crashed this morning so command terminals may have to be reset. FOT Report: - Spacecraft is nominal. A new guide star is to be acquired today. There are some indications that the CMS priority problem is a result of there being a delay in the verification of received signal commands, rather than a delay in the execution of the NRT commands. Instrument Status: GOLF: testing new mechanism mode. VIRGO: rep not present. MDI: nominal, some software glitches, supporting XBP study. will need to upload lots of commands on Thursday SUMER: nominal, Intercal 9. CDS: nominal, supporting XBP study. EIT: nominal, supporting XBP study. UVCS: nominal, finished long polar plume sequence, Intercal 9. LASCO: nominal, supportin intercal 9 SWAN, CELIAS, COSTEP, ERNE: no rep present. Today's schedule: - Unchanged. Tomorrow's DSN: 06:40 - 16:15 21:00 - 01:40 NRT: 08:00 - 14:30 15:00 - 15:45 22:00 - 01:10 Upcoming Events: Wed 10 April Intercal 1 starting at 14:00 Issues: discussion concerning movement of XBP coordinates and the difficulty of experiments reacting to changes occurring at short notice in a week with inconvenient DSN. CDS was unable to react to change in XBP coordinates because their plan was uploaded last night and there is no NRT today. A. Poland voiced concern over the lack of detail (especially coordinates) in the IAP files submitted by the instruments. Meetings: Science club tomorrow featuring Ester Antonnucci!
