  CDS remained ON overnight.  The commissioning of the OPS was completed 
  succesfully. The Mirror and Slit mechanisms were also exercised.  The 
  patching of the CDHS was completed without problems as were the table 
  loads and dumps. CDS was placed into STANDBY Mode and the secondary 
  processor was powerd on. 
  The s/c heater duty cycle was lowered from 90% to 70% for both heaters.

  The NIS and GIS electrical systems were succesfully commissioned. 
  The GIS HV's were ramped to 3.9KV and showed dark counts on all four 
  detectors.
  The s/c heater duty cycle was lowered from 70% to 60% for both heaters.

  CDS was transitioned to READY_BOTH (science mode), and the S/C substitution
  heaters turned off. 
  Initial NIS science studies (FULLCCD) were performed with the MCP turned
  off and turned on.  Detector fuctionality appeared to be nominal

  A NIS Memory dump was performed.
  The GIS ran a short science study with the doors closed and succesfully 
  sent back stim data. Both the GIS and NIS doors  were opened and the 
  first science test studies run.  A GIS spectra was also taken on the
  quite sun at sun centre. All appears nomormal.
