Chapter 1. Definitions
This checklist is designed to provide trained personnel with a framework for preparing a
wave glider for autonomous operation. Simply filling out this form does not insure that a
wave glider is ready for launch.
The Pre-Launch checklist can be found on the OBSP under: Checklist< SV3 Pre-Launch.
Note: It is recommended that at least two OBSP pages be opened to conduct the Pre-
Launch. Refreshing the OBSP Pre-Launch page will clear any information already
entered, There is no refresh of fields, so values you grab at the time of starting onboard
Pre-Launch are a snapshot. In order to capture all relevant information, be sure that all
payloads, sensors and services are turned on. Finally, when you print a hard copy or pdf
of the pre-launch, the comments section will only show five lines.
