GOES-12 Sounder End-of-Life (EOL) testing is scheduled to start at 1200
UTC on August 5, 2013. The testing will end at 1700 UTC on August 14,
2013. The purpose of the EOL testing is to better understand the
Filter
Wheel's dual winding operation and the optimal way to operate GOES N-P
in dual winding operation. GOES-12 users may lose Sounder data while
the Sounder filter wheel windings are being turned off and then turned
on. GOES-12 Sounder data may be stopped permanently if both
windings fail to restart. GOES-12 Imager data will not be impacted
during the Sounder EOL testing period.
GOES-12 Sounder electronics are scheduled to be turned off at 1100 UTC
on August 13, 2013, which will be the conclusion of all data products
from the GOES-12 Sounder.
The GOES-12 Imager data will be turned off at approximately 0000 UTC on
August 16, 2013.
GOES-12 de-orbit maneuvers are scheduled at 0100z and 1300z on August
16, 2013.
