Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. I'm looking at panel 16 now.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

No—No changes to panel —

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.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. You mean delete PREAMP.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

I'm sorry. PREAMP and LGC.

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.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. That's the way we had it last time.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. And, we'd like to insert RANGING.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. Instead of OFF/RESET put RANGING.

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.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. Steps 1 and 2 back in.

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. Go ahead, Vance.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. If you got the 1257, ENTER, then 252, ENTER and 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)

Roger. And this activates your upfiring jets.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Say the last again, Vance.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Roger. What this does, Fred, is activate upfiring jets.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

They're all—actually, all vertical jets.

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.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. To PRO and then do a VERB 34.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Roger. Okay. We have some noise here, Fred. Stand by a minute.

Fred Haise (LMP)

I switched OMNIs. How's that?

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Hey, that helped. Okay. No changes now on 29, 30, and 31. Next page is 32.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. At the very first step above “GUIDANCE CONTROL, AGS,” put in VERB 76, ENTER.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. 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.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. You want 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.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Below that, put in DEDA, 400 plus 5.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. DEDA, 400 plus 5.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. Okay. We want back in again the next step which is “At burn attitude: VERB 40 NOUN 20, ENTER.”

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. Proceeding on down, delete “At burn attitude” and the step above it, which is 400 plus 5.

Fred Haise (LMP)

400 plus 5 and the “at burn attitude.”

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. That's all for page 32, Fred. Next, page 33.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. Under 4 minutes, minus 4 minutes, add back in MODE CONTROL, both, to ATT HOLD.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. MODE CONTROL, both, to ATT HOLD.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. Two steps below that, add back in TTCA COMMANDER THROTTLE MIN DPS, and add in DPS.

Fred Haise (LMP)

TTC—Yes. Seems like you should be in JETS, since this is going to be—is this going to be RCS or a DPS burn?

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. This will be JETS for RCS and THROTTLE for DPS.

Fred Haise (LMP)

What I don't understand is, what is this MCC likely to be? I thought it was going to be an RCS.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Well, we—We expect that, but we're remaining flexible.

Fred Haise (LMP)

(Laughter) Okay. Okay. I'll put in TTCA THROTTLE MIN for DPS, JETS for RCS.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

That's correct. Okay. That's all on page 33. Go to page 34.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. Beneath everything on that page, add in the following. Return to “Entry,—LM PREP” check—return to “Entry, LM PREP” checklist —

Fred Haise (LMP)

Hold on, Vance; I don't understand. We want to delete everything on page 34?

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

No, that's not correct, Fred. What we wait to do is leave everything the way it is on 34, and add this one comment I'm giving you at the—at the bottom of it.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Oh, okay. Okay. I misunderstood. Okay. Go ahead with your added comment.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Return to “Entry LM PREP checklist.”

Fred Haise (LMP)

… turn to—return to “Entry, LM checklist?”

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

That's affirm. At EI minus 5 hours.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. At EI minus 5 hours. Let me take a look and see how that flows, now.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. And also you have a —

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. That would be the LM—the LM preentry procedure. Yes. Okay.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

That's correct, and, also on that page, you—from our last correct—or addition exercise, you have a section called “Reestablish PTC.” We'd like to scratch all of that, of course.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay, Fred. That's all except for one comment that we have, and—just a second.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Stand by 1. Fred, we're polling the room for comments here, any last minute thoughts from people. We'll be right back with you.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay, Fred. Just two changes, comments to what we just gave you. The first is near the front at EI—in the section under “EI minus 2-1/2 hours,” power removal from CM LM umbilical." We'll let you turn to that.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay, I'm there at “EI minus 2-1/2 hours, power removal CM LM umbilical.”

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. Under LM, we have a step, BAT 2, LOW VOLTAGE, OFF/RESET, than ON. Next we have a step BAT 2, HI VOLTAGE. OFF/RESET, then ON. We request that you wait in between these two steps for us to give you a GO. In other words, we'd like to look and see that all the relays closed and all that sort of thing before you throw BAT 2, HI VOLTAGE, to OFF/RESET, and ON.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay, After BAT 2, LOW VOLTAGE, OFF/RESET, I'll—then ON, I'll wait for a MSFN GO before proceeding.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Right-o. Okay. Next, at—Under the section of “EI minus 1 hour and 45 minutes”—No, change that. Correction, “EI minus 1 hour, 35 minutes,” refer to the ECS section, and we have a change.

Fred Haise (LMP)

All right. Go ahead, Vance.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay, Jim's right. We should cross out all this stuff with a couple of exceptions. FORWARD DUMP valve, closed, the first step, should remain. All other steps should be scratched, except for the last one, which is OVERHEAD DUMP valve, closed. That leaves two steps.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. Under ECS, we delete all except the first step, FORWARD DUMP valve, close, and step 10, which is OVERHEAD DUMP valve, closed, and leave in verify transfer list.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

That's affirm. Leave in what follows, which is verify transfer list and IVT and all that.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

IVT, of course, meaning CDR transferring to the CM.

Fred Haise (LMP)

We wouldn't forget it.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay, Fred-o. That's—That's the changes. Not quite as extensive as the CSM had, but still pretty long. Any comments or questions to the house here?

Fred Haise (LMP)

No, it looks pretty good to me, Vance.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. Very good. Only other comment, aside from the checklist, we've been watching your descent stage water, and it looks—or your ascent stage water, and it looks real good.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay, Fred. We're going to try to refrain from calling you from now on, so that you can maybe get a couple of winks. We're getting a status around the room first, to see if anybody has any comments for you and, after that, we'll try to leave you alone for awhile.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Hey, Fred-o. Are you there?

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay. We polled the room. We don't have much for you. Only comments as follows: your consumables are looking good; your entry gamma right now is minus 6.01. We're expecting a midcourse of 2.81 foot per second which should be about 21 seconds of RCS.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. It sounds good.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Okay, Fred. See you in the morning.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Aquarius, Houston. Request you open the POWER AMPLIFIER circuit breaker and DOWN VOICE BACKUP, please.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM)

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Fred, in a couple of minutes we're going to hand over the Honeysuckle, so there'll be—Our uplink will be terminated. We'll contact you when we get it back.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

After that, I've got a couple minutes of work for you.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Let's wait until after the handover.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Yes, I'm hearing you loud and clear. How me, Fred?

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Okay. We want to get some ranging data on you for about 15 minutes. So close the POWER AMPLIFIER circuit breaker and go to NORMAL VOICE, please.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. You ought to have it now, Jack.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Okay. You're coming through good now, Fred. I've got three DELTAs to the checklist. They're minor changes. I'd like to pass them along now. One of them is to the CSM checklist. So if you'll pick that up, I'll give it to you.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Is it the one Jack wrote them all in? The big long readout? He also wrote something in the G&N book.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

It's in the big, long one he wrote out at about EI minus 02:30. EMS entry check.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. He's coming back down with it.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Meanwhile, Fred, I've got two for you on the LM PREP checklist.

Fred Haise (LMP)

Okay. Jack's here now. I'll hand it to him.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay, Houston; Aquarius.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Hello, Aquarius. I've got a couple of changes for you on your CSM checklist.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Okay, Jack. The time line between EI minus 02:30 and 1 hour is real crowded, so you're really going to have to hustle, and we've decided to delete the EMS entry check at minus 02:30. That'll give you a little more time in there. What we've decided to do with it is wait until after EI minus 1, just before you initialize the EMS. If you have time, and only if you have time, do the EMS entry check. Otherwise, forget it and go right on into EMS initialization. You understand?

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. You're going to delete between 2 hours and 30 minutes and 02:15 there, and you're going to add it, if there is time, only if there is time, at EI minus 1 hour where the EMS initialization occurs .

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

That's right. You got it correctly. Okay, Jack. One other item. Just before EI minus 2 hours and 15 minutes, we need an E-memory dump VERB 74 ENTER. Over.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. Stand by 1, would you, please?

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. Right before 2 hours and 15 minutes, I assume that's before MSFN gives their P27 update, I do a VERB 74. Right?

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

That's affirmative, Jack.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

How much sleep did you get, Jack?

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Oh, I guess—Stand by. I guess maybe 2 or 3 hours. It was awful cold, and it wasn't very good sleep.

Jack Lousma (CAPCOM)

Roger. You plan to try to get any more?
