All,

Note: Angle at orbit 392 arc B descending after the apogee sun precession maneuver: 4.131 deg

I have looked at the orbit 392 ATS,

IBEX_2017_364_o0392a_v003.scr,


and I approve.

The only constraint violations in

IBEX_2017_364_o0392a_v002.ccvr


are from the removal of the


ACT_SetSpinPulseProtectEnable Enable


commands (2); the violations are expected.


The PL commands in the v003 ATS match those in the v002 STF,


IBEX_2017_363_o0392a_v002.stf,


except the ATS has an SSR_DUMP_NEW command.  This is expected as APL is being used for the dump pass.


Ascending and descending command sequences are consistent with each other, 15 Re ascending, the apogee maneuver time and 15 Re descending as determined from the OEF,


IBEX_2017_364_o0392a_v001.oef,


and as verified with ibex_orbit.


There is one star tracker outage.  The outage starts about 2 1/2 days before apogee and runs for 4+ days.  Some despinning may be required due to this outage.


There are no moon in Lo FOV sessions.


The ground station command sequences are correct and the timing and bit rates match those in the contacts file,


IBEX_Orbit392_Contacts.txt,


for all contacts (3).


We are doing battery cell balancing this orbit and the balancing commands are correct and offset by enough time from other commands.


The inertial maneuver at perigee of orbit 391 left us pointing in safe directions for the orbit 392 arc A ascending and descending sequences:
