ABSTRACT
This proposal is a test and verification of the STIS dump of memory capability.
Areas of Control Section (CS) to dump include: EDAC RAM, EEPROM, and CS PROM (with the CS in Operate). Areas of MIE memory to dump
include: MIE RAM and MIE PROM (with the MIE in Operate). Note that the MIE memory must first be copied to CS buffer RAM as images, which
are then dumped.
Supports Activity STIS-02
OBSERVING DESCRIPTION
Proposal 11347 (STScI Edit Number: 2, Created: Friday, January 18, 2008 8:01:12 AM EST) - Overview
With the CS in Operate, perform memory dumps of of the EDAC RAM, EEPROM, and CS PROM memory areas. With the DIB (and CS) in
Operate, copy the MIE RAM and MIE PROM to CS buffer RAM as images, and dump those images.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
Prerequisites: STIS must have been recovered from Safe mode. (This is expected to be the first STIS proposal executed during SMOV4.)
The Code 582 flight software team at GSFC will compare the dumped memory with the ground reference image. If any problems are found, we will
need to suspend STIS prior to the next scheduled STIS activity (expected to be proposal 11348, not sooner than 24 hours after this proposal).
Therefore, we require expedited delivery of the data to the Code 582 FSW team within 12 hours, and a contingency Operations Request to suspend
STIS must be in place.

Analysis of the CS, DIB, and DCE memory data dump images produced in this visit will have to be coordinated with GSFC Code 582 who will have the necessary ground images for comparison with the memory dump
images. Data within 12 hrs to Code 582.
