The *Nayif-1* (EO-88) CubeSat has now been in orbit for more than two weeks
and all systems continue to operate nominally.
The power budget is positive, the spin/tumble rate is acceptably low, on
board temperatures are perfectly okay and, importantly, the educational/
amateur transponder switching is taking place autonomously as planned.
More than 250 stations around the world have provided telemetry to the
Nayif Data Warehouse and the FUNcube Team are extremely grateful to them
for their invaluable support.
The experts have now formally allocated Catalog Number 42017 to
Nayif-1 (EO88) and the TLEs can now be downloaded from Celestrak – TLEs
New Dashboards
The FUNcube Team have now updated the Dashboards for both Nayif-1 and
FUNcube-1 so that they display only the telemetry received from the
individual spacecraft that they are designed for. This will help users to
display only the correct information and graphs and reduce confusion.
Whilst they only display the data from ONE spacecraft, they will, as now,
receive and decode the data from all FUNcube payloads currently in orbit
and automatically submit it to the relevant Data Warehouse.
The new Dashboard for FUNcube-1 (ver 1044) can be downloaded from
here: FUNcube Dashboard Installer 1044
The new Dashboard for Nayif-1 (ver 1040) can be downloaded from
here: Nayif-1 Dashboard Installer 1040
Additionally some command line parameters have been added to enable the
programmes to auto-start with the desired parameters. These are:
/minimized
/autostart
/source=dongle
or
/source=soundcard
Some notes on how to implement these parameters can be found here:
