YOHKOH SXT FAX Institute of Space and Astronautical Science 3-1-1 Yoshinodai, Sagamihara Kanagawa Prefecture 229 Japan Phone: 0427-69-4531 Fax: 0427-69-4532 ___________________________ To: Yohkoh Tohbans at both SSOC and KSC Page 1 of 3 Fax# 59-4240 (B-toh), 0994-67-4009 (KSC) From: SXT Chief Observer: M. Weber Date: 13 August 1995, 00:35 JST Subj: SXT Table upload for Saturday (JST) Pass 5: 13-AUG-95 02:39 JST (12-AUG-95 17:39 UT) Table ID: 950812 P5 ARS1 STD+LONG THIS TABLE HAS BEEN SENT TO KSC. PURPOSE: It has been discovered that the SXT CO made a mistake in preparing SXT Table ID [950812 P2 ARS0 FILAMENT]. In the interests of security and speed, this replacement table is designed to perform "standard" observing over the operations holiday Sunday. EXPLANATION: In preparing the Filament Table for Pass 2, the SXT CO made sure that the QT/HI PFI table referred to a particular OBN (Observing Box Number) for the fixed pointing PFI coordinates. However, he neglected to look at the QT/MED PFI table, which referred to a DIFFERENT OBN for the same fixed pointing observations. Because the pointing coordinates for the QT/MED PFIs were not changed, the coordinates from the previous Filament upload table were used. Although the problem was minor, and could easily be fixed to continue filament observations, the SXT Chief Observer recognizes that it is not standard procedure to do fixed pointing observations over a holiday. Furthermore, only Pass 5 is available for solutions without making unreasonable haste. Hence, it has been decided to upload this Standard table on Pass 5. The SXT CO thanks the SSOC and KSC tohban once again for their alertness and invaluable assistance to SXT operations. Sumimasen. Thank you all. TERMINATORS: ???? OUTPUTS: COMPARE: SR0001S COMMAND: SR0001T PLAN: Due to the present quiet nature of the Sun, this standard table shall remain until Pass 3 on Monday (JST). The replacement table (as of this writing) shall be ID [950814 P3 ARS1 STD+LONG]. Thank you, SXT Chief Observer Mark Weber
