NASA MSFC Mission Operations Laboratory MSFC Page 6 Enablement Types  Scheduled Operations with PD Enablement  Specific tasks performed on-orbit may benefit from having a payload expert enabled on S/G to speak directly with the crew.  Crew Requested R/T Enablements  Crew requests PDs assistance on S/G for a certain activity  Crew Conference  Allows the Crew to speak with a PD before working with a payload for the first time

NASA MSFC Mission Operations Laboratory MSFC Page 7 Enablement Types Crew ConferencePayload Operations Differences A crew conference allows the payload expert to have the opportunity to talk to a crewmember in regards to their science and upcoming operations. Conferences are scheduled prior to the payload operations and are usually 15 minutes in duration. Being enabled during payload operations allows the payload expert to talk to a crewmember as needed during the actual execution of their science activity. Duration of enablement will vary. Similarities POD and FLIGHT must approve any “unscheduled” crew communications. Both types of enablements may be planned pre-increment or requested and approved in real-time.

NASA MSFC Mission Operations Laboratory MSFC Page 11 Internal Flight Notes  If time allows, an Internal Flight Note (IFN) is required for enablements.  All IFN’s should be submitted with POD, OC, GC, LIS Rep, CAPCOM, and FLIGHT as recipients.  POD, OC, GC, and LIS for concurrence  CAPCOM and FLIGHT for awareness  The formatting and information found within an IFN will vary depending the enablement type.

NASA MSFC Mission Operations Laboratory MSFC Page 14 Exercise Create and submit an IFN on the Training 2 site. (Reference slide on slide 20.)

NASA MSFC Mission Operations Laboratory MSFC Page 15 Day of the Enablement  IFN should be approved  Coordinate S/G usage with CAPCOM**  Provide IFN number to GC for backup numbers and required actions**  Heads up for Marshall Comm. and required actions**  Ensure PD’s have received phonetic alphabet, protocol words, voice protocol, and the enablement checklist.  Enablement checklist will be reviewed with PD ahead of enablement  Coordinate S/G voice checks with POD  Enable PD (physically or by request)  Introduce PD to the Crew  Disable PD (physically or by request) **Breakdown of coordination with CC, GC, and MCOMM on following slide**

NASA MSFC Mission Operations Laboratory MSFC Page 16 Coordination with CC, GC, and MCOMM CC: Awareness and S/G coordination GC: IFN for backup numbers only MCOMM: Awareness in case T/S is needed IVoDS CC: Awareness and S/G coordination GC: IFN for backup numbers only MCOMM: Allows PD’s GC to enable PD PD GC: Physically enables the PD MOVE CC: Awareness and S/G coordination GC: IFN for backup numbers and enables PD MCOMM: No action required DVICE CC: Awareness and S/G coordination GC: Physically enables PD using numbers MCOMM: No action required Phone Patch

NASA MSFC Mission Operations Laboratory MSFC Page 17 Day of the Enablement Exercise Trainee should practice coordinating an enablement based off of the information found within the IFN that was submitted to the training 2 site. You can assume concurrences have been received.
