Mission Commanding
Mission Commanding transmits and verifies commands and satellite memory loads, updates spacecraft clocks, and monitors selected telemetry parameters in real time. The Commanding function incorporates a macrocommand capability for use in constructing command sequences. This capability allows operations to be viewed at a very high level. For instance, the macrocommand, "Load and Verify Ephemeris," is a collection of many individual spacecraft commands. |
