keyword=right dipole locked up
The right dipole stopped responding to control inputs. We troubleshot and discovered a bad cable between the serial cross-connect and the Dynapower power supply. We replaced the cable, but still no joy. It seems that the Octagon had dumped (the Octagon is the on-board computer inside the Dynapower power supply) and was not responding to commands. We then performed the "James Proffitt Flying Restart" of the right dipole, according to our checklist, and restored normal control of the dipole.
