Lesson Learned - Verify Test Equipment Functionality Before Testing

active, Most Current
Organization: NASA
Publication Date: 28 August 2012

scope:

A failure in the system-level testing of the MSL Robotic Arm was traced to GSE wiring that was mis-connected. Because re-test was not feasible, the functionality was verified by analysis. For system-level thermal testing during ATLO, the functionality of all GSE instrumentation should be unequivocally verified prior to closing the chamber doors.
