(MET day 50, Day #3 of Yaw Maneuvers)

Notes for Yaw Maneuvers: The yaw maneuvers use sector rotation (to -3400 counts). During this time, the formatter is set to DAY rate. In order to balance the MODIS data output, and equal amount of NIGHT rate data will be collected during what would normally be DAY rate.

Upcoming MODIS Events:

Transition MODIS to STANDBY and open SVD. Then, go to SCIENCE, enable FMU taxi interface, and open NAD.

The execution time of these activities will be based on when AQUA comes out of SAFE and resolves the software issue that caused the SAFE Mode entry (specifically: when the controllers have their flight software patched).

Maneuvers:

The Deep Space Calibration pitch maneuver(s) have been indefinitely suspended pending mission review.

The next Aqua drag make-up delta-v maneuver is planned for July 3rd.

MODIS Anomalies:

5D/77 CP Event Pairs:

  • 61 pairs have been received total.
  • 23 pairs between the first Turn On (DOY 127) and S/C to Survival Mode (DOY 139).
  • 32 pairs between the second Turn On (DOY 144) and Science Mode Transition (DOY 158).
  • 4 pairs between Science Mode Transition (DOY 158) and Safe Mode Transition (DOY 178).
  • 2 pairs since Safe Mode Transition.
  • The last event pair was seen on DOY 179 at 18:10:36.

5D Single CP Event:

  • No 77 following message, no related MODIS commanding in proximity.
  • 3 single events have been received, times listed below.
  • DOY 162 at 14:16:59 (roughly 92 hours after Science Mode transition).
  • DOY 166 at 20:44:46 (midway between the 10.4 and 13 degree yaw maneuvers, not during).
  • DOY 167 at 14:27:50 (no commands in near proximity).

77 Single CP Event:

  • No 5D preceding message, no related MODIS commanding in proximity.
  • 3 single event has been received, time listed below.
  • DOY 164 at 00:35:39 (64 seconds after CP Macro 9, SDD to Close, in an SD/SDSM Screened, SDSM fixed at Sun, calibration. The macro was still running when the event occurred).
  • DOY 175 at 23:00:04 (84 seconds after CP Macro 11, SDD to Open, in an SD/SDSM Open, SDSM fixed at SD, calibration. The macro was still running when the event occurred).
  • DOY 177 at 21:26:36 (30 seconds after the SDSM was commanded to its home position, in an SD/SDSM Open, SDSM fixed at SD, calibration. The SDSM was still moving when the event occurred).

5D Yaw Maneuver Events:

  • 28 single 5D event messages were observed throughout the SD/SDSM Yaw Maneuvers.
  • Each of these events occurred within 5 to 10 seconds after a sector rotation (to -3400) command for the SD/SDSM calibrations.
  • An event did not occur for every calibration, and some calibrations resulted in two 5D events.

General Instrument Comments:

MODIS is currently in SAFE mode on PS2. Doors are closed.

MODIS Telemetry Trends:

RC temps are warming due to MODIS SAFE mode/doors closed. Blackbody temperatures are yellow low. Survival heaters are cycling the MEM temperatures.

Non-MODIS Significant Events:

At 15:40:44, the AQUA spacecraft performed an unplanned CTC swap from CTCA to CTCB, thereby placing the spacecraft and it's instruments into SAFE mode. Preliminary analysis suggests that there was a single event upset (SEU) in the memory interface controller (MIC), while the spacecraft was in the SAA. The event occurred in a background task. It was either a read/write verify scrub or a checksum scrub in low priority housekeeping tasks. The SEU triggered FSW to check error flags. The FSW check of the error flags incorrectly interprets the state of the flags and thereby performed the unnecessary CTC swap (since the FSW "thought" the error was more serious than it really was). A software patch is being made to correct the FSW problem in all 8 controllers (they each have the same error).
