OC Team Ops Notes

Jenn Whitworth I2 PRO What are Ops Notes? Ops notes are the OC team’s (OC, Paycom, PRO, CPO) method of documenting pre-flight problem reports and on- orbit anomalies and their associated workarounds Ops notes cover: –system workarounds –EXPRESS Rack workarounds –payload (subrack or facility) workarounds –International Partner payload workarounds –Ground System workarounds

Jenn Whitworth I2 PRO How are they developed? KSC testing – PR’s and IPR’s generated during stand- alone and integrated ops testing in PRCU or PTCS Development inputs – JSC, EXPRESS, and PD’s provide inputs for known problems, limitations, or features Equipment degradation or failure documented by Payload Anomaly Reports (PAR) Simulations and ground system tests

Jenn Whitworth I2 PRO Ops Note Form

Jenn Whitworth I2 PRO Ops Notes Naming Convention ON – Designates this is an ops note Payload/system – designates the payload and or system affected. For I2 this is EHS, EXPRESS, HRF, PLDs, ADVASC, CGBA, CPCG, MAMS, SAMS, STES9, STES10, TCS, EPS, ECLSS, PLMDM Category – Electrical (ELE), Fluids (FLD), Hardware (HW), Mechanical (MECH), Software (SW), ISS Systems (ISS), Ground Support Equipment (GSE) Number – Automatically assigned in database Example: ON-EXPRESS-SW-4

Jenn Whitworth I2 PRO Where do we stand now? At the current time we have 54 ops notes written –39 Software –6 Ground Support Equipment –5 Hardware –3 Fluids –1 Electrical

Jenn Whitworth I2 PRO Ops Note Maintenance PSE will maintain database Life of Ops notes may be: –Permanent –Increment/Flight specific –Closed Once an Ops note is closed it will be archived Ops notes will be viewable on the RICO webpage under “real-time products”

Jenn Whitworth I2 PRO Ops Note Flow PRE-INCREMENT SOURCE: KSC Testing (PRs/IPRs) Training, Planning SPRs, NCs Safety Data Package EI GL & C Document Changes made to appropriate documents POH JOIP GCP Crew Procedures Flight Rules/Payload Regs Console Handbook ECR Process REAL-TIME SOURCE: PARS System Anomaly Reports (SAR) Software updates ORU replacements OCR Process At TBD Interval Existing Ops note revised as needed New Ops notes added Closed Ops notes archived

Jenn Whitworth I2 PRO Forward Work Develop SOP to define process for maintaining Ops Note Database Expand database to include IP payloads
