2. Activities SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER: FIELDS Comprehensive Performance Test
Outline Provided to Team for Comment (only 1 received).
Scripts Developed and Run on EM, some have run on FM
Approximately 70 pages in 29 files
Recent examination of requirements says we need more tests added.
FIELDS1 control of FIELDS2 MAG2/AEB2 ok
Numerous Software & Database Deficiencies Recorded (e.g DFB Modes)
No Hardware Issues Found
No FIELDS2 standalone testing done. This is UMN responsibility.
Bottom Line: As it is currently configured, FIELDS does not meet all functional requirements.

3. Activities
Need to have 3D E-field measurements, not 2D measurements.

4. Activities OCTOBER/NOVEMBER: DCB FSW Comprehensive Performance Test
Scripts Developed and Run on EM
Approximately 270 pages in 85 files
Fully Automated Test running about 90 mins
Full Set of EEPROM Tables Required
Developed Loading Scripts for all Look Up Tables
Numerous Software Issues Corrected, such as the MAG Triangle Filter calculation time.
DCB FSW Long Duration Stress Test
Ready for the 72 Hour run when EM available

5. Verification

6. Operational Issues EM FIELDS1 & FIELDS2
Survey TM Rate >> Allowed
MAGi data being sent to FIELDS1 not to S/C
SAFE() didn’t stop scripts
100 bps data ON in Playback
ATS is enabled too soon after turn on.
LNPS1 3.5V too high
V5 Temp way too high*
RFS averaging at 9 spectra not yet 90
ATS & RTS need more EEPROM allocation
*: V5 is not attached to MEP

7. V2.6 EEPROM

8. Activities OCTOBER : Relative Time Sequences (RTS)
Needed a Reasonably Full Set of RTS for CPT
Developed tool to build and load a set of RTS (RTS_BUILD_V1.py)
Absolute Time Sequence (ATS)
Needed a Prototype of an ATS which demonstrated FSW functionality
Developed tool to build and load an ATS (ATS_BUILD_V1.py)
Developed a smarter tool (ATS_BUILD_V2)
Limit Monitoring (LMT)
Needed a Prototype of an Limit Monitor Database
Developed tool to build and load an LMT (LMT_BUILD_V1.py)
CBS Weights and Thresholds (CBS)
Needed a Prototype of a Database
Developed tool to build and load a CBS (CBS_BUILD_V1.py)
