NOTES/ISSUES/PROBLEMS From the 9am status meeting: Three supports in the last 24 hours, including the 5 1/2 hr ACA dark current calibration, and the overlapping 26m demo support for the automation test for VC 2 data capture. The demo support went well, and apparently successful, subject to a detailed data comparison. The final load segment for FEB2502B was uploaded, onboard loads are good through 062:04:33. The ACA dark current calibration was executed via stored command loads, and executed perfectly. This is very important because we can now schedule ACA dark current calibrations more frequently, e.g. every three months, via stored command loads. MAR0402B load was approved yesterday. OFLS 9.1C will be promoted to operations today. ASVT models telecon will be today at 2:30pm EST. 405-244-5060 pin 1165# Quick look data: OBSID Target Time Comment ----- ------ -------------- ------- 2979 APM08279+5255 055:17:30 ACIS-S NONE Looks good. 3092 FTM0729+3336 057:15:19 ACIS-S NONE Looks good. ------------------------------------------------------- Dan Schwartz, MS #3 das@head-cfa.harvard.edu phone: (617)495-7232 FAX: (617)495-7356 cell phone: (617)512-5627 pager: 877-693-7198 PIN 693-7198 or e-mail 6937198@archwireless.net -------------------------------------------------------
