Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Okay. In the third row, under COMM: DISPLAY, open; SE AUDIO, closed; VHF A TRANSMITTER, open—That's a change—VHF B RECEIVER, open; PRIMARY S-BAND, POWER AMPLIFIER, open; TRANSMITTER/RECEIVER, closed; S-BAND ANTENNA, open; PMP, closed; TV, open. Under ECS: DISPLAYS, open; GLYCOL PUMP SECONDARY, open; LOC PUMP, open; CABIN FAN CONTROL, open; CABIN REPRESS, closed; and all the next four closed also. Read back.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. We have DISPLAY, open; SE AUDIO, closed; VHF A TRANSMITTER, open; VHF B RECEIVER, open; POWER AMP's going to be open; TRANSMITTER/ RECEIVER, closed; S-BAND ANTENNA, open; PMP, closed; TV, open; DISPLAY is open; next three are open; CABIN REPRESS, closed; and all the rest closed.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

That's affirmative, Jim. And in row 4, under HEATERS, we want them all—Correction—we want all the QUAD HEATERS open. Correction—we want all the QUAD HEATERS closed.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

We want DISPLAY, open; S-BAND ANTENNA, closed—to avoid a MASTER ALARM, CAMERA—SEQUENCE CAMERA, open; And under EPS, we want DISPLAYs, open; DC BUS VOLT, closed; INVERTER 2, open; ASCENT ECA, closed; ASCENT ECA CONTROL, open; DESCENT ECA, closed; DESCENT ECA CONTROL, closed; TRANSLUNAR BUS TIE, close; we want the CROSS TIE BUS, open; the BAL LOADS, closed; BAT FEED TIEs, closed. How do you read?

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. The four RCS HEATERS will be closed; DISPLAYS, open; S-BAND ANTENNA, closed; CAMERA SEQUENCE will be open; DISPLAY will be open; DC BUS VOLT will be closed; INVERTER 2 open; ASCENT ECA will he closed, but the ASCENT ECA CONTROL, open; DESCENT ECA, closed; DESCENT ECA CONTROL, closed; TRANSLUNAR BUS TIE, closed; and CROSS TIE BUS, open; and BALANCE LOADS, closed; and the BAT FEED TIEs, closed. I have one question, Jack. On panel—on the second line there under LIGHTING, why are we keeping: the FLOODS and TRACK closed? Or are they going to be open?

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Negative. We have the, LIGHTING breakers all closed. Control the lighting with the switches and rheostats. Over.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. We don't need the floodlights, I don't think, but we can do it that way, I guess.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

And under row 4, under RCS SYSTEMS A/B-2, QUAD HEATERS, you notice that we've closed those circuit breakers, but what we want you to do is to—on panel 3, turn the RCS A/B-2 QUAD switches 1, 2, 3, and 4, off. Over.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

And we're going to watch your quad temps for you, and when we need to warm them up a little bit, we'll tell you to throw those four switches on—on panel 3.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. Now are we sure that this PTC mode is good enough so we don't … get crossed up later and get out of configuration.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Stand by 1 on that, Jim. Okay, Jim, as far as we can tell right now, the PTC looks as good as any PTC we've ever seen in a CSM, so we're going to go with what we've got.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Okay, and if you turn over the page on Power 8, we have the spacecraft functions remaining to you. We've got low bit rate TM. However, we don't have any VHF. We have CWEA. We have GLYCOL PUMPS. We have SUIT FANS. We have CABIN REPRESS for you, and stand by in ATTITUDE CONTROL here. Okay, in ATTITUDE CONTROL, we'll have hardovers for uses in emergency, and for normal usage we want to have a 15-minute delay to get the heaters on to warm them up be before use. How do you read?

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. For emergency, we have the hardovers and for normal use it requires a 15-minute request to get the heaters on.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Okay, Jim, that concludes our powerdown procedure, and we're waiting for you to get with it.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay, Jack, we'll start. I sure hate to lose the PGNS. I sure hope that procedure for the midcourse is a good one.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

You want me to help you here?

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Yes, you can—Okay. First we power down, panel 11. All of them open.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Stand by for a MASTER ALARM. …

Jim Lovell (CDR)

I'll give you this when I'm finished. After we go through this, then you can go through it again and doublecheck it.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Now, the flood lights are on, right? No, I kind of don't think we need them though, do you?

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Don't pull those. Give me the—first of all. We'll get back there. Those four are close, open, open, ENGINE ARM, open, …

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Say, Houston; Aquarius.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

It will take him a minute to …

Jim Lovell (CDR)

You're familiar with our particular spacecraft that on panel 16 HEATERS RCS SYSTEMS A and B, QUAD 1 HEATER circuit breaker has been pushed in, and sealed in, and if it's ever pushed out, it's doubtful if we'll ever be able to reset it.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Okay, Jim, on the four QUAD HEATER breakers, we want you to leave them closed. And we'll operate the heaters with the switches on panel 3. Over.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. We'll do it right there.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay. And I'm closing the HEATERS on panel 4, QUAD 1 through 4, OFF.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Okay. It's time for you guys to get to bed and get Fred up.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

(Laughter) I still have one question, Jack. I still think that—I still say that the—on the LIGHTING in our panel 16, the FLOOD lights and the TRACK should be open. We're not using them.

Flight

Do you have any argument about -

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

No problem, Jim. Go ahead and open them, TRACK and FLOOD, that's all right.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay, TRACK and FLOOD are OPEN.

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Now, why don't you go through that, Jack, and make sure those —

Jim Lovell (CDR)

Okay, Jack, my only other concern now is the CO2 rise in the spacecraft. I guess you're keeping a handle on that?
