Description of the RPW_SCIENCE NORMAL-DEFAULT Configuration.
Context and purpose
The RPW_SCIENCE NORMAL-DEFAULT Configuration is the main operating science configuration for SURVEY_NORMAL mode, to be applied on-board during the Solar Orbiter science operations.
This config. corresponds to the "default state" as requested by the MOC.
WARNING
The NORMAL-DEFAULT configuration does not include any selective downlink (instrument is not in SBM_DETECTION mode). The "Default" config. for the SBM_DETECTION mode is given in the .
Description
This section gives more details about the Config. The NORMAL-DEFAULT config. can be set with the sequences AIWF037A (THR), AIWF038E (TDS), AIWF039D (LFR).
The "State" section gives the general state of the sub-system (i.e., S/W mode). The "configuration" section gives the detailed configuration of the sub-system. The "Attributes" section lists the TC and/or formal parameters which are allowed to change the config..
