New release of Delfi-C3 RASCAL telemetry software is available

According to a report received from Wouter Weggelaar, PA3WEG the Delfi-C3 team has released an updated version of the RASCAL software for the reception of Delfi-C3 (DO-64) telemetry.

A copy is available on-line at: http://www.delfic3.nl/rascal
If you already have RASCAL installed, you can use the upgrade package which leaves all your settings intact.

Improvements:
• Current & voltage of reference diodes added. This is a measure for the solar intensity received on the solar panels. These diode outputs correlate with the output of the TFSC measurements, and can be found in the IV-curves window (Options -> Show IV Curves)

• AWSS data presence indicators added. These indicators light up green if data from the sun sensors (AWSS) is received, and in which quadrant there is data. The AWSS data presence indicators can be found in the lower right corner of the RASCAL main screen.

The team reports Delfi-C3 is still in good health and performing fine in science mode. Approximately 121.5 MB of telemetry data from 335 registered users and guest accounts has been received.

Delfi-C3 has been on orbit for 622 days and her second birthday is coming up on April 28th. There are no signs of considerable degradation in science mode, so everything is still healthy.


Wouter, PA3WEG
