Hi all,

I have looked at the orbit 0534 ATS file, IBEX_2021_194_o0534a_v001.scr and I approve.

The constraint violations in IBEX_2021_194_o0534a_v001.ccvr are from the removal of the ACT_SetSpinPulseProtectEnable Enable commands. The violations are acceptable.

The PL commands in IBEX_2021_194_o0534a_v001.scr match those in the STF, IBEX_2021_194_o0534a_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_2021_194_o0534a_v001.oef and as verified with ibex_orbit.

There are 1 star tracker outage this orbit. Outage begins after the perigee maneuver and lasts for ~7 hours.

The ground station command sequences are correct and the timing and bit rates match those in the contacts file, IBEX_Orbit534_Contacts.txt for all contacts (3).

Battery Balancing is 90 minutes long and placed appropriately from the maneuver and instrument commands.

The Inertial maneuver at perigee of orbit 0533 left us pointing in safe directions for the orbit 0534 arc A ascending and descending sequences:
