Uzzo: Lead Scientist ---------- M. Uzzo: Commander, Planner R. Wu: Commander Command file: 09.03.03.14:57:24.cmd.log Activity: --------- 1) ECS Software Command Link Test Sequence: Manual, 09.03_OVIgrat.tcl, t = 10 SCI_SPEC: This is a test of current EOF Core System (ECS) software ported to linux. Test details as follows: - Command test conducted using primary commanding workstation - NRT Enabled through Newly Ported ECS Software - Telemetry connection has been tested using another machine, but primary commanding workstation will be receiving telemetry from ECS "prime" system (not newly ported software) - noop was sent successfully, and "Active Immediate Command" mnemonic changed to reflect noop, S/C toggle but changed from 1 to 0, and status of "Current Active Command" showed success. - mirror / occulter command was successfully issued, with CMRPOS = 28443, OCCPOS = 28.77 mm (34336 unconverted value), and MIRDIT = 4.99 Ro. - Batch Queue was loaded (456 Bytes worth), and commands verified, command link stable. - Batch Queue was flushed successfully, and "Active Immediate Command" mnemonic changed to FLUSH, with status of status of "Active Immediate Command" showing success.

The spatial distribution of these physical properties are analyzed at multiple heights within several streamers examined over the course of the solar cycle.
