AOCS Manager Clause Samples

AOCS Manager. The AOCS Manager is responsible for controlling the overall execution cycle of the AOCS (sub)system, where first data obtained from the various sensors is processed in order for the control algorithm to be able to perform necessary computations and command the engaged actuators. The sensor data is collected only from those sensors which are active in the current mode, i.e., which have been previously locked to be used by the controller. Similarly, only locked actuators can actually be commanded. In addition, the AOCS Manager controls the processing of data from the payload which is actively used only in Preparation and Science modes (see 2.2.3).
