From: "Paul P. Plucinsky" ACIS end of A19, beginning of B19 Shift, August 10 1999 ACIS Activities this shift 1. SOP_61045 Orbital Background with Door Open 2. SOP_61088 Unfiltered Background Measurement 3. SOP_61045 Orbital Background with Door Open FUTURE PLANNING: - LATE BREAKING NEWS, ACIS will warm up to -50 C before the ACC opens, this will DELAY THE ACC OPENING. So, partial bakeout to -50 C at GMT 223:10:00 and the ACC opening will begin at 223:14:25 Detailed Notes: Picking up from Yousaf's two previous shifts, we are running the 'Orbital Background with Door Open' procedure. The 3rd science run of the procedure had to be split in two because of the switch back from OBC-B to OBC-A. So the 3rd science run of the procedure is actually the 3 and 4th science run of the executed procedure. 222:09:20 OBSID=62707 222:09:31 Start SR4 ****I-array again**** 222:11:58 Stop SR4 # of frames = 2221 CCD S3 I0 I1 I2 I3 S2 cts 105792 208969 219530 212726 214391 207699 cts/s 14.4 28.5 30.0 29.0 29.1 28.3 OBSID = 62706 FP Temp = -89.7 C, 1CR[AB]T = -111.1/-108.7, 1WR[AB]T = -82.0, 1CB[AB]T= -62.4/-59.9 Altitude = 117,400 km 222:12:05 Start SR5 S-array, the 4th science run of the procedure 222:18:08 Stop SR5 ** NOTE, the first time we sent the changeSysConfig command, I did NOT see an echo at the ACIS EGSE. We also had a momentary loss of data at this time. It appears that the SCS ran, but since I could not verify it; we resent the command. SWITCH TO THE SAP_61084_BKG_UNFILTERED OBSID = 62705 FP Temp = -89.7 C Altitude = 81,600 km 222:18:30 Start science run 222:20:30 Stop science run S3 entire chip S2 1.5 quadrants telemetered # frames = 1713 CCD S3 S2 cts 231481 569519 cts/s 41 c/s 100 c/s x 2.67 area factor ==> 267 c/s for an entire chip SWITCH BACK TO THE SAP_61045_BKG_DOOROP run the I array, the goal is to let this one run as we penetrate the belts and shut it down when the rate increases significantly OBSID 62704 Altitude 75,000 km 222:20:35 Start science initial rates are 135-160 c/s 223:????? Mark and Fred watch the count rate as we go into the belts
