S/C (NEB)

All s/c components have been operated at 22-34 volts however, the nominal on-orbit voltage is 31.5 volts. During the charge and discharge cycles of eclipse season, this range will vary from 25.5 to 32 volts. The ON status is that of the non-essential bus. During normal operations, it should be ON. Go To Sample Page

DPU

This should normally be ON. It is all the non-heater power to the instrument. The instrument takes about 0.7 Amps when the camera is off, and about 1.0 Amps with the camera on. When mechanisms are operated this current will increase. For instance if a focus series is done the current increases intermittently to almost 2 Amps. Go To Sample Page

Op Htr

There are 7 different operational heaters. Zones 1 thru 5 each draw about 0.61 amps, Zone 6 about 0.21 A, and Zone 7 (which warms the CCD) draws 0.34 amps. The heaters are turned on and off by the DPU software as described in file:/tsw/html/egse/software/ThermalControlRequirements.html. The ops htr bus should be ON as indicated, supplying power to all heater circuits when needed. Go To Sample Page

Wax Act:

This should normally be OFF. The wax actuators are used to release the latches that hold closed the doors on the Filter Chamber. An actuator takes about 0.5 Amps when it's powered. If the actuator is shorted (such as when the disarming plug is installed) the power supply puts out about 0.2 amps. Go To Sample Page

Ins Surv:

This should always be ON but not drawing any real power because the operational heaters will keep things adequately warm. Go To Sample Page

CCD Dec:

This (CCD Decontamination Heater) should be OFF except for during a deliberate bake out. There are 2 decontamination heaters on the CCD header. They may be turned on individually or together. The heaters are 6 & 9 Watts. The expected current is: Heater 1 0.35 A Heater 2 0.47 A Both 0.71 A Go To Sample Page

INSTRUMENT VOLTS:

These are the voltages within the TRACE instrument as measured by the instrument's A to D converter. Note that the instrument's A to D converter gives a little different answer depending on weather or not the PZT +72 volts is on or off. Except for the PZT +72 which normally reads about +70, the voltages should read within a half volt of nominal. Go To Sample Page

MECHANISMS & CCD:

In interpreting the following be aware that the telemetry samples are 5 seconds apart. A single telemetry point for an encoder position may have been sampled while a device was moving and thus may not be a "valid" value. Likewise an individual current reading may have been sampled while a motor was starting. Go To Sample Page

Current:

This is the current to all the mechanisms, measured by the instrument A to D converter. Currents up to 1.1 Amps are common but rarely caught by the page snap. Go To Sample Page

FW:

The encoder readings of the 2 filter wheels. These encoders will read 255 right after the mechanisms are reset. Valid positions are: FW_1 (FWD) FW_2 (AFT) ----------------- --------------------- 1: Open {19} 1: Open {125} 2: 1600 A {55} 2: 1216 A {17} 3: Aluminum {91} 3: Aluminum {53} 4: 1550 A {127} 4: Fused Silica {89} Go To Sample Page

WM:

The encoder readings of the 2 wedge motors. These encoders will read 255 right after the mechanisms are reset. Valid positions are from 0 to 179. Go To Sample Page

QS:

The encoder reading of the Quadrant Selector. This will read 63 right after a reset. Valid positions are: Quadrant -------------------- A:171 Angstroms {28 or 29} B:UV {19 or 20} C:195 Angstroms {10 or 11} D:284 Angstroms {1 or 2} Go To Sample Page

Shutter pos:

The encoder reading of the shutter: MOVE JUST MADE POSITION ------------------------------- RESET 23 or 24 CCW WIDE EXPOSURE 23 or 24 CW NARROW EXPOSURE 23 or 24 CW WIDE EXPOSURE 51 or 52 CCW NARROW EXPOSURE 51 or 52 The shutter is open when the encoder reads 0 or 3. This should never be the case for longer than the desired exposure time. Go To Sample Page

Focus Counter:

This is a software counter in the instrument computer. A reading of 100 indicates that the focus mechanism is in the center position. Nominal values (of best focus) are: EUV: 112 UV/WL: 104 1216: 104 Go To Sample Page

CCD Amp & lev:

Level 8 is nominal for amplifier A, level 3 is nominal for amplifier B. Most data will be collected with amplifier A. Go To Sample Page

GUIDE TELESCOPE:

Balanced diodes indicate TRACE is still in Fine Sunpoint Mode. D1 and D2 (East/West) will be roughly equal (2-3 DN) as will D3 and D4 (North/South). D1 and D2 usually have a stronger signal and run a few DN higher than D3 and D4. Normal ISS operations is performed in closed loop using low gain. Sometimes the loop is opened for calibrations or eclipses, keeping large movements from pinning the 2ndary mirror. Guide Telescope average error signals are averaged at 300 Hz before being sent to the ISS. Values of ~132 represent midrange and each DN represents ~0.6 arcsec of movement. Go To Sample Page
