15. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Glenn Research Center How To Request SAMS Support Send email to: pimsops@grc.nasa.gov At least a week lead time for draft/review of crew procedure*, then… At least a week lead time for POIC’s review process, then… A couple weeks to get crew time scheduled. * this assumes location and mounting location and steps for TSH is already established, also, another example procedure to see in the International Procedure Viewer (IPV) is: US PODF > 2.019 FCF LMM INSTALL TSH 15

16. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Glenn Research Center 1.Spatial Where is your location of interest? ( SSA coordinates ) Vibratory disturbances tend to be localized. ( less so @ low freq. ) 2.Temporal (SAMS SEs nom. operate 24x7, but not TSHs) When do you expect to operate? Relative quiet below ~6 Hz during crew sleep. Some investigators leverage crew sleep for sensitive periods. Perhaps you take special precautions during a reboost. 3.Spectral Any resonant frequencies? ( phenomena studied, meas. equipment ) Fruit fly investigation has sensitivity between ~140-200 Hz. Marangoni liquid bridge experiment sensitive ~0.25 Hz. 16 How To Request SAMS Support Some Important Aspects to Consider

26. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Glenn Research Center Questions 1.Will You Track “Print Head” Position vs. GMT? For correlation of measured vibration with print perturbation. SAMS data are synced with ISS time server via NTP. On start-up of your SAMS TSH in MSG, verify its timestamps. 2.When Do You Expect to Operate? Can you take advantage of quiet below ~6 Hz during sleep? Perhaps you take special precautions during reboosts. 3.What Frequency Range(s) Are of Concern? Any resonant frequencies? ( e.g. cantilevered “print head” ) Fruit fly investigation has sensitivity between ~140-200 Hz. Marangoni liquid bridge experiment sensitive ~0.25 Hz. 4.Would Any Tailored Real-Time Displays Help? JAXA Marangoni liquid bridge investigators made use of custom 5 Hz low-pass filtered, 10-second interval RMS plot. 26
