Ken Mattingly

Okay. That's the panel 8 floodlights. Now we're going to take panel 5 and put the FLOODLIGHT rheostat to FLOOD and the LEB, that's panel 100, FLOODLIGHTS are also going to FIXED. And the purpose of this is to balance up buses A and B.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. Panel 5; FLOODLIGHTS; you want the rheostat on. Panel 100, FLOODLIGHTS; you want FIXED.

Ken Mattingly

Okay. On panel 275: circuit breaker MAIN A, BATTERY C, closed.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay, Ken. Wait on that one here. I'm just about to lose you here. Just—I've got to change OMNIs.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. Could you give me that one again, please.

Ken Mattingly

All right. On panel 275: circuit breaker MAIN A, BATTERY C, closed.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. MAIN A, BAT B, closed on 275.

Ken Mattingly

That's MAIN A, BATTERY C, Charlie.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

MAIN A, BAT C, Charlie.

Ken Mattingly

That's affirm. No—Negative on battery Bravo.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. Negative on battery Bravo. That's MAIN A, BAT Charlie, closed.

Ken Mattingly

Okay. Good. On panel 276: circuit breaker INSTRUMENTATION POWER CONTROL, 3 and 4, open.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Would you say that one again, Ken?

Ken Mattingly

All right. On panel 276: circuit breaker INSTRUMENTATION POWER CONTROL, 3 and 4, open.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. Panel 276: CB INSTRUMENTATION POWER CONTROL, 3 and 4, open.

Ken Mattingly

That's affirmative. Okay. Panel 5: circuit breaker CENTRAL INSTRUMENTATION POWER, MAIN B, closed.

Ken Mattingly

Okay. I'm sorry, Jack. Would you read that again, please?

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. On panel 5: CB CENTRAL INSTRUMENTATION POWER, MAIN B, closed.

Ken Mattingly

Okay. That's correct. PRIMARY EVAPORATE WATER CONTROL valve to AUTO.

Ken Mattingly

That's affirmative.

Ken Mattingly

Okay, Jack. We want to put the PRIMARY and the SECONDARY EVAPORATED WATER CONTROL valves to AUTO.

Ken Mattingly

And, Jack, can you give us a readout on BAT B and the charger current?

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay, Ken. That was the PRIMARY and SECONDARY H2O CONTROL valves to AUTO on 382.

Ken Mattingly

That's affirmative, and did you copy about the readout on the battery and charger?

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Yes. Jim's on his way up.

Ken Mattingly

Okay. Thank you. All right, the next little step after your water control valves is to perform the CSM RCS preheat. We'll do that on page E/1-5, steps 35 and 37.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay, Ken. We're having a problem with the COMM. You read now?

Ken Mattingly

Yes, sir. Loud and clear.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. It's perform CMCSM RCS preheat, and could you say again all after?

Ken Mattingly

Okay. I'm referring to the entry checklist, page E/1-5, steps 35 and 37.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. Perform CSM RCS preheat per entry checklist, page 1-5, steps 35 and 37.

Ken Mattingly

That's affirmative. Now back to panel 5: circuit breaker CAUTION AND WARNING, MAIN B, closed.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

CB CAUTION AND WARNING, MAIN B, closed.

Ken Mattingly

That's affirm. On panel 2: CAUTION AND WARNING POWER to 1.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Panel 2: CAUTION AND WARNING POWER to 1.

Ken Mattingly

That was POWER to number 1, Jack.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

CAUTION AND WARNING POWER to 1.

Ken Mattingly

Okay. On panel 5: circuit breaker EPS SENSOR UNIT, DC BUS A and B, closed.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay, Ken. The COMM from you is awful weak—awful weak, I—I can't—it's CB EPS SENSOR UNIT. Say again, after that.

Ken Mattingly

All right, Jack. That's CB EPS SENSOR UNIT, DC, that's Delta Charlie, BUS A and B, closed.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. CB EPS SENSOR UNIT, DC BUS A and B, close. And I'll give you the volts and amps.

Ken Mattingly

Okay, that's correct. Go ahead.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. Volts are 39.1; amps, 1.5.

Ken Mattingly

Okay. On panel 3: MAIN BUS A and B, go to RESET and leave it in the center.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay, panel 3—Stand by; got to change OMNI's.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. MAIN BUS A and B, RESET, then center.

Ken Mattingly

That's affirmative. Okay, now we're at EI minus 5 plus 05. And, as far as you're concerned, Jack, the command module is using this for information only. This will be the LM doing an Earth-terminator AGS alinement; and at the time of 5 plus 05 is the time they'll be going ahead and releasing their ball. And this will be covered in the LM checklist; it'll be uplinked after this one. At EI minus 5, we perform midcourse number 7. Over.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. At EI minus 05:05, the LM is making an Earth-terminator aline; and at EI minus 05:00, we perform MCC-7.

Ken Mattingly

That's correct. At the completion of midcourse 7, the LM will maneuver to a separation attitude. And this attitude will be sent up on one of the pads that you're going to get before all the sequence starts. And it'll be flown to the LM ball angles on that pad.

Ken Mattingly

All right. At EI minus 4 plus 40, we want to perform page 1-6, step 39 of the entry checklist.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Ken, I—I didn't get it. We had to change OMNI's again. Could you say it—the EI minus 4 dash—or 04:40, we do something.

Ken Mattingly

Okay. And at that time, you'll want to perform step 39 of page E/1-6. Over.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. Perform step 39 of entry checklist page E/1-6.

Ken Mattingly

That's correct. Okay. The next is the command module RCS activation, and that's step 4-1 of page E/1-6.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. The next is perform CSM—or CM RCS activation for step 4-1 of page E—E/1-6.

Ken Mattingly

All right, Jack. The next is at EI minus 4 plus 30. We want to verify that the LM is configured for command module RCS hotfire.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. Verify LM configure for RCS hotfire at EI minus 04:30.

Ken Mattingly

That's correct. Now to panel 5: circuit breaker G&N IMU HEATER, MAIN B, closed.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. Panel 5: CB G&N IMU HEATER, MAIN A and MAIN B, closed.

Ken Mattingly

That's negative, Jack. That's MAIN B only.

Ken Mattingly

I'm sorry; I lost you that time. Say it again.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. Let's repeat it. Stand by. Cut out. We've really got a strange attitude, so this is why we are having the COMM problem. Panel 5: CB G&N IMU HEATER, MAIN B, closed.

Ken Mattingly

That's affirmative. On panel 1: ROTATION CONTROL POWER, NORMAL. That's two of them, to AC/DC.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay, panel 1: RHC, NORMAL, two to AC/DC, two controllers.

Ken Mattingly

That's correct. On panel 7: SCS, LOGIC POWER 2/3, ON.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

SCS, LOGIC POWER 2/3, ON, panel 7.

Ken Mattingly

That's affirm. Back to panel 2: RCS COMMAND, ON.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Panel 2: RCS COMMAND, ON.

Ken Mattingly

That's correct. Now the command module RCS check per step 4 of page E/2-1.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. Perform the command module RCS check per step 4, page 2-1.

Ken Mattingly

That's correct. Okay, at this point, we want to lock the rotation hand controllers.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. After that, lock both rotation hand controllers.

Ken Mattingly

That's affirm. On panel 8: SEQUENTIAL, PYRO ARM, two to ARM.

Jack Swigert (CMP)

Okay. Panel 8: set PYRO ARM, two, to ARM. Do I get a MSFN GO for that?
