MAG TEAM REVIEW:

This MGS MAG/ER status report covers the period: 
11-17 September 2005 (DOYs 254-260)

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/sr05254-260.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

The magnetometer and electron reflectometer were commanded on during
DOY 257. All systems powered on successfully and are operating nominally.

The extreme fluctuations in some values during the initial turn-on sequence 
occur because not all sensors are fully operational or are still ramping up 
when the first few data packets are formed.

Because the spacecraft is not yet on background sequences, the
recorders are not being used. Gaps in the data will occur until a
background sequence takes control (sometime next week).
