Operations Day -- 61/1998 (2 March 98)
Summary: 
This pass was only 50 minutes long due to DSN resource constraints.   In 
addition, there was no ranging performed during this pass due to a last 
minute DSN resource conflict.  Becasue of the short duration of the pass, 
the FOT was only able to dump ~5 hours of the 24 hours of SSR data that 
needed to be retrieved.  In addition, the FOT was unable to perform requested 
instrument commanding during this short pass.  A second pass has been 
scheduled for later today to retrieve some additional SSR data - but - this 
pass is also limited in length and will not permit full data recovery.  The 
remaining SSR data will hopefully be recovered on day 62.
  
Anomalies:
*  CMTS support on D17 took D16's Ranging equipment.  As a result, no 
Ranging data was available during pass.  Our rise at Goldstone was at 155408, 
so it was requested Carrier be brought up at 1555.

Operations Day -- 61/1998 (2 March 98) -- addendum
Pass Summary: 
This second day 61 pass allowed the FOT to recover additional 
SSR data.  Since this pass was only 1.5 hours in duration, there was not 
enough time to dump all SSR data.  The remaining data will be retrieved on 
day 62.

Operations Day -- 62/1998 (3 March 98)
Pass Summary: 
Today's pass was moved from station D24 to D16 so that the 34 meter antenna 
could be used to support a SOHO spacecraft emergency.  The pass was nominal 
and the FOT was able to recover all of today's SSR data as well as the 
remaining day 61 SSR data that was not dumped due to the short length of 
yesterday's pass.
 
Anomalies:
*  Due to SOHO S/C Emergency, ACE's original pass on D24 was deleted.  
As a result, Station D16 came up to support ACE.

Pass Summary: 
Today's pass was nominal except for a ~13 minute telemetry outage due to 
problems with equipment at D16.  The FOT performed a dump of all timetag bins 
on the inactive C&DH and compared the dump against the TPOCC ground image.  
The result of this comparison was nominal.

Operations Day -- 64/1998 (5 March 98)
Pass Summary: 
Nominal pass which was used by the FOT to perform maintenance and health 
evaluation tasks with the inactive C&DH and Sun Sensor  The major activity 
today was the first post-launch power up and health evaluation of Sun Sensor 
B.  At the completion of the daily SSR playback - the idle SSR was 
reconfigured to C&DH B where it recorded the Sun Sensor B turn-on.  After ~20 
minutes of recording, the Sun Sensor was powered off, the SSR was reconfigured
 to C&DH A and the SSR data was retrieved.  During the time Sun Sensor B was 
powered on - FDF generated an attitude solution with Sun Sensor A.  This 
solution will be compared against a solution that will be generated during a 
playback of the Sun Sensor B data.  Initial indications are that Sun Sensor B 
is healthy and operating nominally.  Since the Sun Sensors are not cross 
strapped - the health of Sun Sensor B would have a great impact on any 
Project decisions to fail over to C&DH B in a contingency situation.  The Sun 
Sensor B turn-on event, which was seen by C&DH A, will also be used to 
evaluate the C&DH B clock accuracy (since the C&DH B clock value is not 
downlinked via C&DH A) by comparing the 'time' that this event was seen by C&
DH A compared to the 'time' seen by C&DH B.

 Pass Summary:
 Today's pass focused on uploading a software patch to the ULEIS instrument 
(OCR ULEIS-220).  394 separate loads were uplinked to complete this task.
After completion of the load sequence, ULEIS was not returned to full 
operational status (completed 2 of 9 high-voltage steps) due to a shortage of 
time.
 
Anomalies:   
- JPL Comm reported alarms due to incorrect configuration of telemetry 
channels at DSS-66.  After DSS-66 changed configuration, VC2 data dropped out 
and VC1 frames became corrupted with duplicate frames as seen from ACE MOC.  
TPOCC packet extractor crashed and TPOCC had to be restarted during ULEIS 
commanding.  ULEIS flight load procedure was successfully resumed after TPOCC 
restart.

                  DSS-24       17:12:32          20:35:00

Pass Summary:
The automated data rate transition test was successfully completed today.
The FOT will be implementing this process permanently in mid-April.
All the data rate transitions, at the beginning and end of the pass, will
execute from the on-board timetag bin 5 - 10 minutes before or after the
pass.  This will reduce the DSN data rate transitions that have to be
coordinated with the stations
The SEPICA 30KV power supply was turned off by the S3DPU when it violated a
current limit.  This has happened a few times before and the S3DPU
performed as expected.


Anomalies:
S98-0007 - SEPICA 30KV voltage shut off by S3DPU automatically overnight.
This was the same response that the S3DPU had for anomaly S98-0006, except
the 30 KV level had not been changed prior to this shutdown.


Activities:
17:05 - BOT
17:10 - AOS time tag bin fired to switch to ADC format, 76384 rate
17:12 - AOS - 76384 ADC format
17:14 - SSR B placed in record format

17:17 - ADS software started
17:27 - ADS software terminated
17:28 - Science format started
17:30 - Anomaly S98-0007 - SEPICA 30 KV shutdown
19:45 - SSR A dump complete
20:14 - ADC format started
20:25 - Time tag bin fired to change to 434 RTSW format
20:27 - RTSW format started, 434 rate
