IBEX_2020_241_o0499a_BUS_v001.ccvr
and
IBEX_2020_241_o0499a_INST_v001.ccvr
are from the removal of the
ACT_SetSpinPulseProtectEnable Enable
commands (2); the violations are expected.
The PL commands in
IBEX_2020_241_o0499a_INST_v001.scr
match those in the v002 STF,
IBEX_2020_241_o0499a_v002.stf.
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_2020_241_o0499a_BUS_v001.oef,
and as verified with ibex_orbit.
There is one star tracker outage. The outage starts about 13 hours after 16 Re ascending and runs for 1.5- days. Some despinning may be required due to this outage.
The ground station command sequences are correct and the timing and bit rates match those in the contacts file,
IBEX_Orbit499_Contacts.txt,
for all contacts (3).
We are not doing battery cell balancing this orbit; we'll do it again in the next orbit.
The inertial precession maneuver at perigee of orbit 498 left us pointing in safe directions for the orbit 499 arc A ascending and descending sequences:
