And, Aquarius, Houston. We'd like you to, on your alinement, can you continue right on through the fine aline Activation 31? Go right on through step 7. Over.
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
That's affirmative. And, Odyssey, we've got another configuration for you. All 16 RCS AUTO SELECT OFF. All RCS heaters off. Over.
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
Okay. I can verify all heaters off. Jack, I've got to keep a fairly minimum deadband until I get through this coarse aline.
-
Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay. VERB 41, NOUN 20. Okay. You want plus? Plus or minus? Plus 302.43? Is that right?
-
Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay. Let me enter it. Okay. What's the next one? Plus 347.78. 347.78. Okay. 081.3. Is that right? ENTER. Okay.
-
Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
Houston. Okay. I want you to doublecheck my arithmetic to make sure we got a good coarse aline. The roll CAL angle was minus 2 degrees. The command module angles were 355.57, 167.78, 351.87.
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
Okay, Jim. We copy the roll CAL at minus 2.0. The command module is 355.57, 167.78, 351.87.
-
Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay. VERB 41, we've done that. Okay.

Odyssey, Houston. We'd like you to, on your COMM configuration, go to PRIMARY POWER AMP OFF, LOW BIT RATE, and DOWNVOICE BACKUP. Over.
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
Houston. I've gone to PRIMARY POWER AMPLIFIER, OFF, LOW BIT RATE, DOWNVOICE BACKUP.
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
Okay, Jack. Thank you. And, Aquarius, your arithmetic looks good on the coarse aline, there.
-
Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
Here are the gimbal angles. Command module, 356.69, 163.42, 346.67. Aquarius is 302.26, 345.92, 011.79. Over.
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
Okay, Jim. I got command module 356.65, 163.42, 346.67. Aquarius, 302.26, 345.92, 011.78.
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
Odyssey, Houston. We need a command reset on your—on your COMM, and then we'd like you to power down to CMC, power down the IMU, heaters off on the IMU, but leave the battery A on.
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
Okay, Jim. I think I'm reading Jack, now. But what we want him to do is to give us a command reset. And then power down the CMC, power down the IMU, turn the IMU heater off, leave battery A on. Over.
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
That's just about 80—in fact, 82 hours out of the two primary cartridges. That's two guys. 44 is what LC8 got. That would be 88 hours. We got a secondary. You're right. We're listening.
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
Yes, Jack. I read it back twice to you. Command reset, which I've done. I'm about to power down the IMU, power down the CMC, turn the IMU heaters off, leave BAT A on.
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
Okay. I just got a MASTER ALARM and MAIN BUS A UNDERVOLT. And I'm starting to power down, now. —
-
Fred Haise (LMP)
-
We've lost—The only advantage to doing it early; if we can power back—the LM back down. The only advantage doing it early is you can do a big burn now and a midcourse and then power the LM down. Otherwise, we got to keep the LM powered up clear until we get around the Moon. Plus it would be inside on the burn. I just hope the G&N hangs up on—hangs in on this one—I'd sure hate to do that one manual.
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
Odyssey, Houston. Couple circuit breakers for you. On panel 276, on our INSTRUMENTATION POWER CONTROL, open CB number 3 and number 4.
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
That's affirmative, Odyssey. And also get your SCS electronics package and power off, and your FDAI POWER/GPI off, and your AUTO jet SELECT, all 16 off.
-
Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
Jack, while he's doing that, copy down what you just said again. I want to write it down.
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
Aquarius, we need to get your sublimator powered up, Activation page 20 and Activation page 21, step 3. Over.
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
That's Activation, page 20? Okay, Jack. Now I have to power down IMU. I have no control at all. I'm going to turn my 16 jets off, Say again the other things you wanted?
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
Okay, Jack. We'd like you to turn off your O2 tank 2 heaters and fans. Correction—tank 1. Turn the fans and heaters off.
-
Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
Okay. And, Jack, can we turn on the FDAI circuit breakers so we could have a ball to see if we go to gimbal lock or not?
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
Houston, he's going to give a 16 NOUN 20, Jack. And, okay, I've got O2 heaters and fans off in tank 1.
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
Jim, we don't want you to power down the ball in the LM. We wanted you to power down the ball in the CSM.
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
I have the CMC and IMU in the command module is powered down. The heaters are out.
-
Fred Haise (LMP)
-
And the EVAP flow valve, that's open now, and I've undone my suit hoses here and opened up the suit flow valves; so, we got air flowing in the LM now.
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
Okay, Jack. Do you want me to proceed by the SCS powerdown checklist? I did not copy the SCS items you wanted me to power down.
-
Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
Okay, Jack. Tell me there. We need to know when we're getting close to gimbal lock in the LM. We have no balls right now.
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. We want you to power up your eight-ball. We want you to get your RCS heaters on. Pressurize the RCS and open up the MAIN SOVs. Over.
-
Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay, Jack. I got two commander FDAI breakers in, AC and DC, and the two GASTA breakers in AC and DC and next you'll want the RCS heaters all on with the—pressurize the RCS and then the MAIN SOVs open. And I think they're already open.
-
Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Roger, Jim. I'm holding open those until you give me a further word anyway. I'm just going to pressurize right now.
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
Okay, Aquarius. I have some gyro torquing angles and the Odyssey is powered down, attitude-control-wise, so LM's got attitude control now.
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. We want you to know that we got some gyro torquing angles for you. And we want you to tell us when you got attitude control in the LM.
-
Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay. We're still working on the pressurization. I'm getting Jim on the horn here so he can help out, there.
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
Stand by 1, Aquarius, Odyssey. We'd like you to go DIRECT RCS and hold your present attitude out the window until the LM gets RCS powered up. Go ahead, Jim.
-
Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
Well, that's my question. We're not—Our 16 20 doesn't match our eight-ball here. We went to FDAIs ON, and we don't have our balls completely powered up. There may be a … and our angles don't look the same and we don't want to go into gimbal lock.
-
Fred Haise (LMP)
-
— both LOGIC POWERs out … goes into normal circuit-breaker. … Do you want A in and then I'll fire them?
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
Okay. I'm going to try to do the best I can. I've got a one-attitude reference I'm going to fly according to the lunar terminator.
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
What am I doing? I can't do that, anyway. Let's see, cross feed. Nope. Now, and -
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
Aquarius, Houston. We'll have to get some AC up so you can get a ball reading. Close your BUS TIE INVERTER circuit breakers, all four of them on panel 11. Close your AC BUS VOLT circuit breaker on panel 11. On panel 16, INVERTER 2, CLOSE. Select inverter 2. Over.
-
Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay, Jack. Do you want us to proceed right on down the line with the RCS check-out and Activation 37 now?
-
Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)
-
Okay, Fred. Negative on the activation on page 37. Go on to your RCS pressurize and then get your TCA breakers in and go to PGNS attitude hold.
-
Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
Okay. I don't see where you're firing these things …
