Okay, Fred-o. Okay. This is “Entry, LM PREP.” Starts EI minus 6 hours. At that time, you power up the ACS. I think I'll give you a line at a time and, when I hear you say okay on that, I'll go to the next. That sound reasonable?
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
EI minus 5 hours. Midcourse-7, if required. Next: LM preentry procedure. And, Fred, the time on LM preentry procedure is just —
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. The time on the LM preentry procedure is just as soon as you finish midcourse-7, or 5 hours -
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay. I've got this TEI minus 5 hours, MCC-7 if required, and now you're going to start me a new procedure called LM preentry procedure. Go ahead.
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay. It says maneuver in ATT HOLD for Moon view attitude until CM platform release.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
That's affirm. Better worded, it would have been maneuver and hold in attitude for Moon view, et cetera.
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay. The master title, “Entry, LM PREP, EI minus 6 hours.” First, BAT 5 NORMAL FEED, ON; second, use modified LM DPS/RCS, 30-minute activation checklist. Next, is at TEI minus 5 hours, MCC-7, if required. Now, we have a LM preentry procedure. First, we maneuver to service module SEP attitude. Second, configure for CSM hotfire. Under that, DEADBAND MAX, and ATTITUDE CONTROL, three, to PULSE. Thirdly, perform CSM hotfire. Fourth, we—The LM maneuvers back to SM SEP attitude, with ATTITUDE CONTROLs, PITCH and ROLL to PULSE, ATTITUDE CONTROL, YAW, to MODE CONTROL. Now, you got that so far, Vance?
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay. At EI minus 4-1/2 hours, configure for SM SEP. First, BALANCE COUPLE, ON. Secondly, zero the counters in AGS; 404, 405, 406, plus 0; read out 470. Thirdly, translate plus-X to 0.5 foot per second. Fourth, CM/SM SEP. Fifth, after SEP, null 470 to 0. Sixth, ATTITUDE CONTROL, three, to PULSE. Seventh, pitch to acquire service module for photos. And a note, use the ACA for control. Last, we had—you gave me was TEI minus 3 hours. Maneuver in ATT HOLD for Moon view until the CM platform release.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay, Fred. Only—Only a minor point that we just picked up. At the very top, EI minus 6 hours, the title is “power up,” above BAT 5 NORMAL FEED, ON.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. And on the last, it was maneuver and ATT HOLD for Moon view attitude until CM platform release. I think that's what you read. Okay. Ready to go on? EI minus—Are you there?
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay. This assumes all descent BATs on line, and ASCENT BATs 5 and 6 on NORMAL FEED. Go ahead.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. Next, the LM. CB, EPS panels 11 and 16, CROSS TIE BALANCE LOADS to close.
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Oh, okay. The last item was item 9, and that was BAT 2, LOW VOLT, OFF/RESET, then ON.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. And just before LMP transfer to CM, we'd like to have you add another step, Fred. That is —
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
That's affirm. Matter of fact, Jack has a listing of your pads there, Fred-o, so you can review them after this is over.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Negative. The step above for CM free was command module, but the COMM is for LM again.
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay. I was wondering if that's still going to be best after it leaves—But, okay. Select best OMNI at the time.
- Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
I want to ask him why all these steps just to get rid of a LM that's going to burn up in a half hour. Seems ridiculous. God damn it. Too many guys —
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. The last one was SUIT FAN, OFF. Hey, Jim, Deke said he thought you were asleep.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. Circuit breakers, panel—circuit breaker panel 16 rather. ECS, CABIN REPRESS to open.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Right. Okay. That's all for the ECS. Next, ATTITUDE CONTROL, three, to MODE CONTROL.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Oh, stand by 1, Fred. We'd like to—change the position of that ATTITUDE CONTROL, three, MODE CONTROL to be just under CM free. That's a more convenient time.
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Yes, I agree. Okay. Under, it'll be my item B, after verify CM free, it's ATT CONTROL, three, to MODE CONTROL.
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
If I don't sound too clear, it's because I'm holding a flashlight between my teeth.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Transfer yourself to the CM. Or rather, IVT, that's the commander to the CM, and close hatch.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. That's all for the time line, Fred. Now the contingency checklist, if it's handy.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. Now, at this point, you have this section marked up already, so what I give you now represents additional DELTAs to your previously marked up checklist.
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay. That's all right. I've got a different color pen, so it'll show up nicely. Go ahead.
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Do you mean, under IVT to the LM, number 4, RCS SYSTEM A/B-2, QUADs 4, AUTO? That 4?
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
That's affirm. Yes. It's the—the only 4 on that page 24 and it's a—presently has after it RCS SYSTEM A/B-2, QUADs, 4, to AUTO. Under that put —
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. At the bottom of the page—Okay. You already have that. MODE CONTROL, both, OFF.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. First row is okay as is. Second row, under FLIGHT DISPLAYS, GASTA should be closed.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Roger. That's all on the second line. Now the third line, under STABILITY and CONTROL, ATCA (PGNS) to closed.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
That's all on that line. Fourth line, near the right side, LGC STANDBY to close. And —
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
That's correct. Okay. Fourth row is okay as is. Now we would like to add—add in a late arrival to row two. Under —
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay. FLIGHT DISPLAYS, MISSION TIMER, closed. We can look at the ghosties right to the end.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Yes, that's right. Okay. That's all for that page, Fred. That should add up to six circuit breakers all closed, on that page.
- Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
Have we looked seriously now at just the essential things required to make a safe LM jettison? We're not—I don't think we have the time to really do any engineering data that people might want to look at as this thing goes into the atmosphere.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Well, Jim. I—I think that that was what everybody aimed for, and people down here feel that it's the essentials, that it's what you need.
- Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
Well, we'll do everything you think is essential, but I just don't want to be throwing switches at the last minute. What we're really thinking about, getting that command module in good shape.
- Tom Stafford
-
Hey, Jim. This is Tom. The only reason we're bringing up the PGNS is to have another reference system just to control the LM when you jettison the thing. Over.
- Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
Okay. Okay, Tom. It's—I thought the—an AGS ATT HOLD would have been sufficient for this, when we first thought about this.
- Tom Stafford
-
Yes. I agree. But we decided just in case we have any glitch with the AGS, we want to make sure we get that LM off in a good shape. And I agree with you on keeping out all the garbage on it.
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay. I'm on 28 now.
Expand selection down Contract selection up - Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Right. Okay. At the top of the page, under step 4, just above “VHF/S-band activation,” put in, “Delete POWER AMP and LGC.” These are caution lights.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. Under “VHF/S-band activation and checkout,” step 2, we have changes to the COMM as fellows.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. Scratch—Scratch out the DOWN and DOWN VOICE. That leaves—That'll give you VOICE.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. Under “PGNS turn-on,” add in steps 1 and 2 again, which are NO ATTITUDE light off, VERB 96 ENTER, and set EVENT TIMER.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
That's affirm. And underneath “Set EVENT TIMER,” add the following: VERB 25 NOUN 07, ENTER; 1257, ENTER.
- Fred Haise (LMP)
-
Okay. After event, set EVENT TIMER, it's VERB 25 NOUN 07, ENTER; 1257, ENTER; 252 ENTER; ENTER.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. Next, same page, under “DAP set gimbal drive,” go to step 2. Okay. Add in after NOUN 46, 32021.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. Proceeding on down below the NOUN 47, to the PROCEED, insert VERB 34, ENTER, after the PROCEED. And that would come before the NOUN 48.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. At the very first step above “GUIDANCE CONTROL, AGS,” put in VERB 76, ENTER.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. Below “GUIDANCE CONTROL, AGS,” the third step should be changed to be MODE CONTROL, both, to ATT HOLD.
- Vance Brand (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. At minus 6—6 hours—or 6 minutes rather, under MODE CONTROL, PGNS, ATT HOLD, which was scratched out, insert VERB 41 NOUN 20, ENTER, and three more ENTERs. So—So it's as shown in your procedure there.
