Hi all,
I have looked at the orbit 0640 ATS file, IBEX_2024_063_o0640a_v001.scr and I approve.
The constraint violations in IBEX_2024_063_o0640a_v001.ccvr are from the removal of the ACT_SetSpinPulseProtectEnable Enable commands and a very short eclipse on 2024-03-07. The violations are acceptable.
The PL commands in IBEX_2024_063_o0640a_v001.scr match those in the STF, IBEX_2024_063_o0640a_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_2024_063_o0640a_v001.oef and as verified
with ibex_orbit.
There is 1 star tracker outage this orbit. Outage begins at 2024-03-11 12:44:30 and lasts for 8.6 hours.
The ground station command sequences are correct and the timing and bit rates match those in the contacts file, IBEX_Orbit640_Contacts.txt for all contacts (3).
No Battery Balancing this orbit.
The Inertial maneuver at perigee of orbit 0639 left us pointing in safe directions for the orbit 0640 arc A ascending and descending sequences:

There is an overlap with a contact in the orbit 0639 commands. This is acceptable.
