As a result, NOAA-19 needs to be switched from MIMU-2 to MIMU-1. This will cause the MHS to lose its 10 Hz clock signal, which will cause it to enter fault mode. The MHS needs to then be recovered from fault mode and placed back in scan mode. *Contact Information for Further Information:*ESPC Operations at ESPCOperations@noaa.gov at 301-817-3880 __and/or other contacts as necessary *Web Site(s) for applicable information:*N/A This message was sent to ESPC.Notification@noaa.gov .
