[Isocops] IBEX Orbit# 186 ATS v001 - approve

[Mark Tapley]

All,
	I have looked at the Orbit 186 ATS v001

IBEX_2012_316_o0186a_v001.txt

	and I approve.

	No constraint violations per .ccvr files:

IBEX_2012_316_o0186a_v001.ccvr

	The PL commands in the ATS files match those in the STF

IBEX_2012_316_o0186a_v001.stf

	per manual inspection.

	PL ascending and descending operations make sense with 
respect to each other and to 15 Re ascending, Apogee, and 15 Re 
descending times from

IBEX_2012_316_o0186a_v001.oef

	Star tracker outage during first arc first 10 hours of 
science operations; should not affect ramp-up but may require 
de-spinning.

	No Moon in -LO FOV.

	Ground station contact commands match contact times in Contacts file

IBEX_Orbit186Contacts_v001.txt

	for all 3 ADD contacts. No contacts during maneuvers.

	No battery cell balancing this orbit. Did so last orbit, but 
skipping this orbit and will do next 2 orbits due to eclipse.

	Inertial maneuver at the end of orbit 185 left us pointing in 
a safe direction for ascending and descending macros during first 
half of orbit:

	No -Lo O-mode Commands.

	No overlap to orbit 185 commands apparent by manual check or 
by reference to http://ibex.unh.edu/cgi-bin/ats.cgi which shows no 
commands from orbit 185 after 11:11 (all this load's commands are day 
11:12 or later).

	Command Approval Checklist attached.

	-Hi Neg collimator back to operating at nominal voltage.
