[Isocops] IBEX Orbit# 106 ATS - approve

[Mark Tapley]

All,
	I have looked at the Orbit 106 ATS v002 
(IBEX_2010_353_00_00_v002.txt) and I approve.

	The standard "PL mode unknown at the beginning" constraint 
violation is the only one.

	The PL commands from v001 of the ATS match the STF v001 file 
(IBEX_2010_353_08_30_v001.stf) per Ken's script. v001 of the ATS 
differs from v001 only in the addition of the battery balancing 
commands, so v002 also matches the .stf for PL commands.

	PL operations all make sense WRT 15 Re times, ascending and descending.

	Ground station times line up nicely with the transmitter on times.

	Battery cell balancing is > 1 hour from anything.

	The sun-pointing maneuver leaves us in a safe direction at 
the time of the maneuver and at succeeding ascent and descent:
