SOHO Daily Meeting Minutes for Monday, 11 February 2002

ANNOUNCEMENTS

————-

* Note: The corrective action for thermal configuration monitoring is currently

  disabled – i.e. there will be no automatic thermal reconfiguration. However,

  we are in continuous contact, and anomalous temperatures would be clearly

  flagged to the FOT.

* The NASA 36.192 (MXUVI Woods/Hassler) launch on Friday was successful.
* HESSI first ligth is expected this evening.
* Solar science seminar Wed Feb 13, 2002, 3:30 PM, in SOHO EAF (room G-10)

Spacecraft Status: SVM Nominal

		   CEPAC, SUMER OFF

		   MDI, CELIAS have yet to resume normal operations
Spacecraft Anomalies:

  036/2231      Experiment LCL status toggling.  Appears to be

                related to the PRTU reconfiguration, and also

                appears to be settling with time.  Investigation

                and results pending.

  040/0252      Single DMA failure over 1 format.
Accomplished Activities:

  DOY 040:      VIRGO, MDI background queue commanding

  DOY 041:      VIRGO, SWAN (x4), MDI background queue commanding

                CDS recovery compelted (FOT activities)
Planned Activities:  VIRGO, SWAN, CELIAS Recovery Activities, New tracking star, mag = 6.6
Upcoming Operations: None
Ground Anomalies:    None over the weekend.

INSTRUMENT STATUS

—————–

CDS:	Nominal. Supporting campaign #6846 (MXUVI Rocket) with full sun,

        full spectrum observation (3 days late, but still useful). Catching

        up with other missed studies (e.g. polar reversal monitoring).
UVCS:	Nominal. Checkout and recovery today and occulter calibration

        overnight, assuming everything goes well. Plans for tomorrow TBD.
LASCO:	Nominal. C2/C3 synoptics.
EIT:	Nominal. 195 Angstrom CME watch and synoptics.
MDI:	Nominal, but not observing. More work is needed before they restart

        structure. Hope to start taking doppler observations some time during

        the week. Status of keep-alive memory yet TBD.
TRACE:	Nominal. Flares, sunspot, active region tracking study.
CEPAC:  Will be powered on tomorrow morning between 15:00-16:00 UT.
SUMER:  Off. Plans to power on in April.
