Hi Domenico, i8CVS
last night I collected the Telemetry from FO-29.
Date 27 July 2008, Orbit #58990. AOS 21:27, TCA 21:34, LOS 21:41.
It is very interesting to point out that, the most part of TLM collected
into Eclipe !
If I am not wrong, just the "Data1" is on Sunlight and the rest DATA on
Eclipse.
At 21:32 the FO-29 came on the dark, 2 minutes before the TCA.
The confirming of Sunlight on "Data1" is obvious also by Solar-Panel Current
(= 1000.0 mA).
Also the battery has the biggest Voltage (16.4 ). In the next "Data 2,3,4,
5 & 6" where the FO-20
was on Eclipse, the Solar-Panel Current is just 9.8 mA.
However, the battery voltage is droped down from 16.4 V (Data1 on
Sunlight)
to 14.2 V (Data 6 on Eclipse). That means 2.2 Volts lower in about 5 mins.
I can't say if that is normal or not. It's just my notice and probably is
OK that but,
it should be very interesting if we can find an older TLM-Data into Eclipse
in order
to compare it with this one.
Finally, the following data are 100% OK. As you know dr Domenico, I am
"old fashion"
CW operator by using pencil and paper, however I recorded my reception
and I confirmed
it twice, in order to eliminate any possible fault.
Here is the collected Telemetry DATA:
