Okay. Our recommendation is that you stay in AGS for the LM JETT simply because we've thought it through. We've got the right deadbands and all set up. Over.
-
Joe Kerwin (CAPCOM)
-
Yes. You can maneuver in PGNS, Jim. I'm sorry, I thought you were talking about the ATT HOLD and the LM JETT afterward. You can maneuver in PGNS if you want to.

I want to get way over here, Joe. To prevent him into gimbal lock, I have the yaw at about—I'd say about almost 50 degrees.
-
Joe Kerwin (CAPCOM)
-
Roger that. Just stay out of gimbal lock and that 45-degree isn't critical—the out of plane, that is.
-
Joe Kerwin (CAPCOM)
-
Okay, Jim. The particular DAP configuration we have set up now is using more fuel than we'd like out of system B. We'd like you to reconfigure the DAP to 30021. Over.

Joe Kerwin (CAPCOM)
-
We'd like to have you turn the optics power off until you need them again, and we would like to have you check the RCS ring 1 and 2 temps for us. Over.

Jim Lovell (CDR)
-
Okay, Houston; Aquarius. I am at the LM SEP attitude and I'm planning on bailing out.
-
Joe Kerwin (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. Our troops would like to have you go to the SYSTEMS TEST METER and read out the injector temps on RCS for us.

Okay. Good deal. Jack, let me mention something about the hatch integrity check. You're going to vent the tunnel until you get a 3-psi DELTA-P. That should take 9 or 10 minutes, and it's our firm feeling that you don't have to wait another 10 minutes after that for a leak check. If it holds pressure for a minute or so or even gets down there, you know you've got a good hatch. Over.
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
Yes, sir. That is verified.

Roger. We think that you were just pressurizing the cabin up to that regulator's particular SPEC.
-
Joe Kerwin (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. We're observing middle gimbal angle getting a little bit high. The LM appears to be deadbanding okay within its attitude, but just wanted you to know that we're keeping an eye on it and if it does get too high, we might want you to punch off early.
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
Okay, Joe. Since we're ahead of the time line, can I proceed on and kind of punch off early, or do you want me to punch off at exactly 1 hour?
-
Joe Kerwin (CAPCOM)
-
Odyssey, Houston. We just had a formal GO for LM JETT at your convenience. Over.
-
Joe Kerwin (CAPCOM)
-
Okay, Odyssey; Houston. We're ready for you to bring the BMAGs ON and WARM UP and all other things being equal, we'd like you to go through the LM JETT at—on the checklist you've got. And that is BMAGs 1 —
-
Joe Kerwin (CAPCOM)
-
Okay. I'm reminded that the entry DAP is all you've got. It'll initialize itself, and you won't have an—you won't have an RCS DAP, so you don't have to fool with it.
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
Okay. I'm coming down here to a step that says FDAI POWER, off. Is that what you want right now, I guess, huh?
-
Joe Kerwin (CAPCOM)
-
Okay, Jack. That FDAI POWER, OFF, is to stop momentary gliches as you bring up the BMAG to put it on, and you turn right around and put the FDAI POWER right back on 1.
-
Jack Swigert (CMP)
-
Okay. And I don't have the BMAG TEMP light out yet. Do you want me to go ahead and put the BMAG ON with the TEMP light still ON?
