10.
Type
report clearall
.
11.
If no errors are found, type
lab_mode off
to return to the GliderDOS prompt.
12.
Purge the log directory, and send the logs over FreeWave or
dellog all
on
both glider and science persistor. (This can take a long time if there are a large
number of files and they will be lost, so the best practice is to purge and archive
the log files in the lab.)
13.
Type
run status.mi
and confirm that all sensors are being read. The
mission should end with this message: “mission completed normally.”
14.
Let the glider connect to the Dockserver and send .sbd over Iridium, If not
connected, type
Callback 1
to force the Iridium to call in one minute once
connected.
Here is an example of forcing Iridium while the FreeWave is present:
GliderDOS I -3 >
send -f=irid *.sbd -num=2
(This sends the two most
recent .sbd files over Iridium. Be patient, because the Iridium is slow, and
currently there is no positive feedback over FreeWave).
Science Sensor Checkout

Type loadmission
sci_on.mi
and loadmission
sci_off.mi
if available or
follow the individual commands below
•
Type
put c_science_all_on 0 (off = -1)
. This tells the science
computer to sample all science sensors as fast as possible.
NOTE Make sure that the glider is not simulating or in boot Pico or lab
mode before deployment.
NOTE The following sensor may not update during running status.mi
(this is OK):
surface_2: Waiting for sensors to report. ERROR
behavior surface_2: Timed out waiting for input
sensors:ERROR behavior surface_2: Sensor NOT reporting:
m_raw_altitude
