This page gives information about the RPW Flight Procedures (RFP).
About the RPW Flight Procedures
According to the FOP preparation plan, the flight procedures are divided into three categories: the Flight Control Procedures (FCP), the Contingency Recovery Procedures (CRP) and the Commissioning Procedures (COM).
The RPW procedures files are archived in the /Procedures folder of the https://gitlab.obspm.fr/ROC/OpsLib gitlab repository (restricted access). A test version of this repository is available in https://gitlab.obspm.fr/ROC/OpsLib-Test (restricted access).
For each of these categories, a table is given with the following columns:
- Name – Name of the procedure (according to the ESA convention)
- Description - Short description of the procedure (to be reported into the info sheet of the Excel export)
- Instrument mode at start
- Instrument mode at end
- Author(s) – Entity that creates the procedure
- Status – Status of the procedure (i.e., "Written", "In Progress", "To Be Written", "Tested", "Submitted", "Accepted", "Rejected", "To Be Updated")
- Comments – any relevant comment
The possible RPW instrument modes are listed here.
Editing a procedure
The SOC provides to the instrument teams an online "Procedure Builder" than can be used to create/edit procedures. The site dedicated to RPW is available here. Nevertheless, the SOC cannot guarantee that this tool will be maintained during the whole mission, and the instrument teams may develop and maintain their own tool (this particularly true when the teams want to write and/or test a procedure with upcoming version of the instrument IDB) . In the case of RPW, the FIGARO tool, accessible via the MUSIC Web portal will replace at medium term the SOC procedure builder.
The RPW procedures are delivered to MOC as MOIS import Excel format files, which are formatted 97-2003 Excel files with specific sheets and columns (see the FOP procedure input ICD for more details). In this format, there must be only one sequence per procedure file.
The procedure/sequence naming convention can be found in the FOP preparation plan.

Please visit the operation guidelines page before editing a procedure!

Open issues
Issues | Comment | Status |
---|---|---|
Compression activation/deactivation shall be added when configuring the sub-systems in SERVICE mode in some way | Might be a single procedure for this task | |
Need a procedure to enter in SBM_DETECTION | Done with IW-FCP-058 | Fixed |
Does the formal parameter (FP) mechanism should be used for COM and CRP? | ||
Need a procedure to enter in SERVICE mode from SCIENCE | Done with IW-FCP-032 | Fixed |
Do IW-FCP-001 and IW-FCP-002 can only contain the TC to switch-off the instrument? | ||
Does IW-CRP-020 can be used nominally to enter in mode SAFE? | The IW-FCP-064 can be used too | Fixed |
