Reproducibility Procedure
1.Open Data Transfer Cartridge in TE (ex TR_BMS_03_Landing)
2.Program EWS as follows.
Chaff PGM 6
Burst Interval 1.000
Burst Quantity 0
Sequence Interval 1.000
Sequence Quantity 0
Flare PGM 6
Burst Interval 0.100
Burst Quantity 2
Sequence Interval 1.000
Sequence Quantity 3
This mean’s flare only dispence 2x3times = 6;
3. press Save
4. Take Off
5. Check FL value on CMDS panel
ex 15.
6. Change Orbit Cam View to check dispence
7. CMS_left to run program 6
8. only 2 flares. miss additional 2 flare x 2times!!. BAD.
9. Check FL value on CMDS panel
this time is 13. BAD.
10. Set CMDS MODE to STBY in order to reprogram EWS using ICP
11. reprogram EWS as follows
Chaff PGM 6
Sequence Quantity 0 to 1.
12.Set CMDS MODE to MAN.
13.check flare dispence using procedure 6 to 8 above.
14.this time It work’s.
2 frare x 3times and FL value become 7 (13-7=6).correct
Expected Behavior
Flare Sequence Quantity work when Chaff Sequence Quantity is 0.
Refference
Manual TO-BMCS1F-16CM-34-1-1
1.7.3 p 118
Slavo Quantity 0 to 99.
bug avoidance
use Sequence Quantity to 1.
when programming flare only or chaff only,
set Burst Quantity to 0 which you won’t dispence.
Flare only program –>Chaff Burst Quantity 0
Chaff only program -->Flare Burst Quantity 0
Keep Sequence Quantity 1 or greater in ANY CASE.
bug fix recommendation
set min value of Sequence Quantity to 1 ,not 0.
That’s fine and Change Nothing.
Regards.
