February 24, 2001 00:00:00 GMT to March 02, 2001 00:00:00 GMT


******************************************************************
NOTE: The Solar Diffuser sector size was changed from 50 frames to 5 frames and the SRCA sector size was changed from 10 frames to 55 frames from 061/14:06:30 to 061/18:21:56. The SCIABNORM flag was set from 061/14:04:50 to 061/ 18:35:25.

Maneuvers:

The next MODIS Roll Maneuver for a Lunar Calibration through the Space View Port is scheduled for March 13th at approx. 21:32:52. The next Drag Makeup Maneuver (delta-V) is scheduled for March 14th at approx. 19:40:00

MODIS Anomalies:

There appears to be a problem processing the science data collected during the SRCA activities on Friday, March 2nd, 2001 (day 061). Specifically, this may be related to the change in sector sizes for the Solar Diffuser and SRCA. If this is the cause, it will affect data from 061/14:06:30 to 061/18:21:56 GMT. This problem is not yet well understood.

The SRCA sector delay was left at a value of 50 (1 frame delay) after the SRCA activities on Friday March 2nd, (day 061). This delay will be changed back to zero on Monday, March 5th. This has no impact to MODIS operations except for SRCA sector data. No SRCA activities will be scheduled until the delay is set to zero. The SRCA crosstalk activities will be corrected and re-CM’d.

General Instrument Comments:

MODIS is in Science Mode on the B-side with the SVD and NAD open, operating with the Formatter Resolution Flight Software Patches (FRFSP).

MODIS Telemetry Trends:

Temperature trends are correlating with the solar beta angle.

Non-MODIS Significant Events:

None
