1. Instrument Commissioning SDO SOWG - January 18-19, 2007 Purpose/Goal:
Provide and review updates to the instrument commissioning timeline.
Additional input provided as part of instrument PERs
Updates to the Launch and GTO periods are not reflected on the attached timelines. If time permits, they will be incorporated prior to the face-to-face meeting.

2. AIA Commissioning (From PER) (1 of 3)
All AIA subsystems will be turned ON and checked one by one.
At Launch,
Power to AIA is OFF, and decontamination relays are closed
As soon as observatory is power-positive, (about L+2.5 hours),
Turn ON decontamination power bus (S/C command).
Turn on AIA to minimal main power state
Health monitor via AIA housekeeping
Checkout mechanisms (partially)
Turn on operational heater service
Checkout operational heaters
Set temperatures to assist outgassing
Turn on ISS/GT
Partial checkout of GT-S/C signal
Turn on CEBs
Partial CEB checkout

3. AIA Commissioning (From PER) (2 of 3)
S/C HGA and high-rate data checkout
Checkout CEBs/CCDs
Use LEDs during checkout
Complete checkout of mechanisms
Open Doors ~ on Day 30
Calibrate GT/ACS (first calibration, long form) (TBD)
Fine tune the thermal control system (operational heaters control parameters)
Turn off decontamination heaters
Cool the CCDs
Checkout CEBs/CCDs with cold CCDs
Establish focus positions
Check filterwheel filters and calibrate focal planes with cold CCDs
Select and set optimal focus position for each wavelength

4. AIA Commissioning (From PER) (1 of 3)
Perform calibrations
(First in stand-alone)

HMI/AIA Roll Calibration maneuver
Fine tune GT/ISS calibration for Control Guide Telescope

5. HMI Commissioning (From PER) (1 of 2)
All HMI subsystems will be turned ON and checked one by one.
At Launch,
Power to HMI is OFF, and CCD decontamination relays are closed (ON position)
As soon as observatory is power-positive, (about L+2.5 hours),
Turn ON decontamination power bus (S/C command).
Open door on ~Day 30
Fine tune the thermal control system (operational heaters control parameters)
Turn off decontamination heaters
Cool the CCDs
Calibrate focal planes with cold CCDs
Select and set optimal focus position

6. HMI Commissioning (From PER) (1 of 2)

7. EVE Commissioning (From PER)
At Launch,
Power to EVE is OFF

CCD decontamination relays are closed (ON position)
GTO Operations
EVE remains powered OFF during GTO
Decontamination heaters are ON to prevent condensation on CCDs while observatory outgassing occurs
Commissioning
