[Isocops] IBEX Orbit# 130 ATS's - approve, conditionally.

All,
	I have looked at the Orbit 130 ATSs v001

IBEX_2011_173_o0130a_v001.txt
IBEX_2011_173_o0130b_v001.txt

  and I approve, with conditions noted below.

	The "PL mode unknown" constraint violation messages are gone 
now! Yay! No other constraint violations.

	The PL commands in the ATS v001 match the STF v003 files

IBEX_2011_172_o0130a_v003.stf
IBEX_2011_172_o0130b_v003.stf

per Ken's script (Thanks, Ken!).

	PL ascending commands are commented out of the 
...130a_v003.stf file, and hence do not appear in the 
...130a_v001.txt ATS. This means that we should (must?) load the 
ascending macros or run them manually *before* we load the "a" ATS 
file; I don't know what happens if the PL is partly ramped up and 
then we run the Moon-in-FOV set-back commands and/or Descending 
macros.
	PL ascending and descending operations make sense with 
respect to 15 Re 15 Re ascending, Apogee, and 15 Re descending times 
respectively.

	Moon in -Lo FOV PMT setback commands are in the STF and match 
the ATS part a, but there is no corresponding Moon-in-Lo FOV in the 
.oef.

	No ground station contact times. I assume those must be 
loaded independently.

	No battery cell balancing commands for this orbit; although 
it is even-numbered and we would otherwise have done so, we just went 
through 8 cycles on Orbit 129 subsequent to the Delta-V maneuvers.

	Inertial sun-pointing maneuver at the end of orbit 129 (large 
slew from Burn pointing) leaves us pointing in a safe direction at 
the maneuver time, at the Apogee Descending macros, and all times in 
between.

	No O-mode this orbit.

	No obvious overlaps to orbit 129 or orbit 131. I have not 
checked http://ibex.unh.edu/cgi-bin/ats.cgi, however. Transmitter 
on/off commands will still need to be added and may cause overlaps, 
which should not be a problem.

	Command Approval Checklist attached.
