Telecommand Packet Header
|
The GLAST CCSDS telecommand packets have the standard 6-byte primary header, followed by a 2-byte secondary header. The GLAST CCSDS telecommand header layout is shown below.
Fields: APID - The CCSDS-packet application identifier. Function Code - An indicator of the specific command action to perform. Packet Length - The CCSDS-packet length. Indicates the length of application data, plus the two bytes of secondary header, minus 1. Sequence Count - The CCSDS-packet sequence count. This running counter increments for each packet generated for a given application type (indicated by the "APID" member). SF - The CCSDS-packet sequence flags ('00' = continuation packet in the middle of a sequence; '01' = first packet in a sequence; '10' = standalone packet that is not part of a sequence). SH - The CCSDS-packet secondary-header flag. Always 1, indicating that all GLAST telemetry packets have secondary headers. T - The CCSDS packet-type identifier ('0' indicates a telemetry packet; '1' indicates a telecommand packet). Version - The CCSDS-packet version identifier. Always '0', indicating a Version 1 packet. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
