MAG TEAM REVIEW:

This MGS MAG/ER status report covers the period: 
13-19 May 2001 (DOY's 133-139)

MAG/ER instrument temperatures, currents, and voltages are within nominal ranges.

A gif plot of the instrument parameters for the week is located at:
http://mgs-mager.gsfc.nasa.gov/status/sr01133-139.html

Previous status reports for the magnetometer and electron
reflectometer instruments can be selected for viewing at:
http://mgs-mager.gsfc.nasa.gov/status/index.html

The plotted quantities are:
MCP_V-->micro-channel plate voltage
A_MA--> controller current

A_TEMP-->controller temperature
ER_TEMP-->ER temperature
IB_TEMP-->inboard temperature
OB_TEMP-->outboard temperature

Two commands were radiated to the ER instrument this week. The first
command, to increase the MCP voltage, was uplinked on DOY 134 (May 14)
at 1830 UTC. A second ER diagnostic command (which forced the ER to
cycle through several different MCP voltages) immediately followed the
first. This test is clearly visible as the sharp rise in the MCP voltage.
Data from the second command showed that the MCP voltage was
indeed set correctly and optimally.

- According to DSN status reports, the small (~45 min) gap in DOY 137 and
  the large gap in DOY 138 are due to DSN problems.
