Managing AIA Heater Zones

Heater Scripts

All AIA heater adjustments are made by script. AIA has 2 standard thermal scripts, A_8108, and A_8109. 8108 adjusts the aft heaters and 8109 adjusts the forward heaters. Whenever changes need to be made to any of the heater zone target or deadband temperatures or duty cycles, these scripts should be updated, loaded, and then run to make the change. These scripts are called after every eclipse to reset the temperatures so it is important that they be kept up to date.

To edit the scripts, figure out what temperatures you want to set things at, then use temp_to_counts.pro to convert those temperatures to DN.
