Maneuvers:
The next MODIS Lunar Roll Calibration is scheduled for DOY 191 from 18:24:48 to 18:31:18. The roll was delayed by two orbits to avoid conflict with the CLAMS field campaign.
MODIS Anomalies:
Quick Summary:
On July 2, 2001 (DOY 183), at 20:59:00, MODIS was powered up on power supply 1 (PS1), control processor A (CPA). It was then commanded to A-side SCIENCE mode. The events leading up to this are as follows:
On June 15th, 2001, at 03:56:08 GMT, MODIS experienced an anomaly.
The Flight Operations Team paged the on-call MODIS engineer reporting a trip of TMON #68 (autonomous Telemetry Monitoring software on the spacecraft). TMON #68 is the MODIS double FIFO (First In, First Out data buffer) Write State TMON. In addition, many red limit violations were reported. Inspection of telemetry showed peculiar states including a CP (Control Processor) mode of INVALID and the MODIS model as ENGINEERING. With all telemetry suspect, the MODIS IOT commanded the instrument to low-power mode (using procedure MOD_ALL_OFF) at 05:16:43.
Evidence was very strong that a failure had occurred in PS2 and that the rest of the instrument was okay. There was still the question about whether the failure was a soft failure or a hard failure. If the failure was a hard failure (such as an electrical short), it was possible that powering up PS2 could possibly stress the loads (those components still internally enabled on MODIS from the time of the PS2 shut off) with an over voltage. However, if the failure was a soft failure (such as a Single Event Upset (SEU) caused by a high-energy particle impact), it was possible that powering up PS2 would return it to full operational capability.
On June 28th (day of year 179), at 18:59:30, MODIS was powered on using power supply 1 (PS1) and control processor B (CPB). The 1553 bus stopped sending telemetry, and at the time, there were questions about the current values. At 19:09:00, the MOD_ALL_OFF procedure was executed and MODIS was again turned OFF.
On July 2nd (day of year 183), at 19:06:50, MODIS was once again powered ON using PS1 and CPB. After commanding to upload mode and doing a formatter restart, everything appeared to be okay for the remainder of the contact. At the beginning of the next contact,, MODIS was no longer sending valid telemetry (master cycle was no longer incrementing). At this time, MODIS was powered OFF. At 20:57:04, MODIS was powered up using PS1 and CPA. Since everything looked nominal at this time, MACRO 0 was executed in real time by the MODIS IOT. At 22:48:16, MODIS was transitioned to A-side SCIENCE mode, and software patches were loaded to account for the formatter A anomaly. At the time of the transition to side A science, the formatter reset itself 65536 times in the first 4 hours 40 minutes (half of which came in the first 5 minutes). However, since approximately 2 PM on July 3rd, no new formatter resets have been received.
As of this time, MODIS is operating nominally on PS1, CPA. L1A science data is also nominal.
General Instrument Comments:
MODIS is in Science Mode on the A-side with the SVD and NAD open, operating with the Formatter Resolution Flight Software Patches (FRFSP).
MODIS Telemetry Trends:
Voltage, current and temperature trending over the previous month, in addition to selected past time periods is currently underway to support the ongoing analysis of the PS2 shutdown anomaly.
Non-MODIS Significant Events:
SSR Anomaly:
Late in the evening of June 16, 2001, the Solid State Recorder (SSR) locked up. The SSR was no longer recording data and was not responding to commands uplinked by the Terra Flight Operations Team (FOT) to dump its data. This made it impossible for the ground to acquire any recorded housekeeping telemetry or science data from the Terra spacecraft.
After further testing and analysis, the SSR was restored to full operations (successfully dumping science data) at 11:40:34 GMT on June 20, 2001.
An interesting byproduct of this event was the functional restoration of supersets 30 and 31 (which, after reallocation of the supersets, they now reside in the MISR buffer). Additionally, ASTER's superset allocation was reduced by one superset to solve a complication with replays of their science data. This free superset has been allocated to the MODIS buffer. With the restoration of the malfunctioning supersets (which are no long allocated to the MODIS buffer), and the additional superset, MODIS will have approximately 3% greater science data storage space than originally allocated.
