Weekly Operations Schedule Issued on 29/08/14 at 11:25:44 Seq Nr: 3 Planned activities for week 36/2014: GENERIC SERVICE INFORMATION 14 August- 31 December 2014 The EUMETCast-Europe DVB-S2 Basic Service is operational. A parallel operational phase with DVB-S is provided till December 2014. Further information is available: http://www.eumetsat.int/website/home/News/DAT_2305543.html Meteosat Straylight. During eclipse seasons, stray light affects the way the spacecraft instrument is commanded. There are periods where the black body calibration is performed after the instrument retrace instead of prior to it. This delays files for the time of the calibration approximately three minutes) which then affects the data timeliness in the same way. This nominal calibration activity during eclipse season will therefore cause periods of noticeable delays to reception of data by Users.
