Abnormal Operations 4 Appendix — Command files 5 1. introduction This document describes the commanding required by C1XS in the post-launch, commissioning and lunar operation phases. Copies of the telecommand files are contained in the appendix. As the C1XS commanding is dependant on events the telecommand files have been created assuming a start date of 1 Jan 2008, duration of 1 day and a start time of 00:00:00. The following sections describe the commanding in detail and also state which event they are expected to be run from. In addition all the command files assume that: a) C1XS is powered on 30 seconds before the command file is sent b) The CAN bus is enabled by the BDH. c) The spacecraft SSR is collecting C1XS data. 2.

Post Launch 3.1 Rationale During launch there is a possibility that the XSM shutter may open. The shutter protects the detector from protons during the spacecraft transit from the Earth to the Moon and so it is essential that the C1XS instrument be powered on briefly to allow the XSM shutter to be closed. 3.2 Timing As soon as practical after launch the C1XS instrument should be switched on and the command file sent to the instrument. 3.3 Command File Filename: c1xs_XSMshuter_v1.txt Version: 1 Duration: 60 seconds Depends: Instrument power on and CAN communications for >30 seconds Completed State: Instrument in standby, power off after 30 seconds Description: The instrument housekeeping rate is increased to one packet every 4 seconds, the XSM instrument is powered on, the shutter close command sent and then the XSM power is switched off. 4. Commissioning 4.1 Rationale Before science operations can take place the C1XS door catch has to be released. 4.2 Timing This command file should be run during the C1XS instrument commissioning phase. 4.3 Command File Filename: c1xs_openHOP_v1.txt Version: 1 Duration: 12.5 minutes Depends: Instrument power on and CAN communications for >30 seconds. The instrument temperature should be <20 °C and the SCD radiator should be < -30°C. Completed State: Instrument in standby, power off after 30 seconds Description: The instrument housekeeping rate is increased to one packet every 4 seconds, the door latch time-out is increased to 3 minutes and the latch drive circuit is enabled. The open latch command is sent and the script waits for 5 minutes to ensure that the latch has opened and cooled down. The door is then opened and closed to check that the latch has correctly withdrawn. To verify that the rest of the instrument is working correctly it is put into operating mode for 5 minutes to collect data from the calibration sources. 5. Lunar Operations 5.1 Rationale Under normal operations the C1XS instrument requires very little commanding, 5 command files in total; on, operating, standby, calibrate and off. The instrument should be left powered on, in standby mode, while the spacecraft is flying over the dark side of the Moon. Once per day the instrument door needs to be closed so that the calibration sources can be used to monitor the degradation of the X-ray detectors. 5.2 Timing The C1XS instrument only collects data while flying over the sunlit side of the Moon. Therefore the operating and standby command need to occur just before / just after the terminator is crossed. To maximise the collection of scientific data the on, off and calibration files should be run whilst the spacecraft is over the dark side. 5.3 Command Files 5.3.1 On Filename: c1xs_on_v1.txt Version: 1 Duration: 21.5 minutes Depends: Instrument power on and CAN communications for >30 seconds Completed State: Instrument in standby mode, C1XS door open. Description: After power on the instrument runs the software located in PROM, an update was made to the on-board software during final test and this is located in EEPROM. Therefore the first two commands cause the software to reboot and run the latest version held in EEPROM. Ten minutes of calibration data is taken by commanding operating mode, after this time standby mode is requested and the C1XS door is opened. 5.3.2 Operating Filename: c1xs_operating_v1.txt Version: 1 Duration: 10 seconds Event: 300 seconds before dark to sun-lit terminator crossing. Depends: Instrument in standby mode, C1XS door open Completed State: Instrument in operating mode Description: The instrument is commanded into operating mode. 5.3.3 Standby Filename: c1xs_standby_v1.txt Version: 1 Duration: 10 seconds Event: Terminator crossing, sun-lit to dark Depends: Instrument in operating mode Completed State: Instrument in standby mode. Description: The instrument is commanded into standby mode. 5.3.4 Off Filename: c1xs_off_v1.txt.txt Version: 1 Duration: 20.5 minutes Depends: Instrument in standby Completed State: Instrument in standby, C1XS door closed, power off after 30 seconds Description: The C1XS door is closed, operating mode is commanded to collect 10 minutes of calibration data, then the instrument is returned to standby mode ready for power off. 5.3.5 Calibration Filename: c1xs_calibrate_v1.txt Version: 1 Duration: 11.5 minutes Event: Once per day, spacecraft over Moon‘s dark side. Depends: Instrument in standby, C1XS door open. Completed State: Instrument in standby, C1XS door open. Description: The script closes the C1XS door, commands operating mode and 10 minutes later goes back to standby mode. The door is then re-opened ready for the next science observation. 1.
