  • Summary:

    inability to describe sets of limits (alarms) and conversions (polynomials) and then select a set per parameter depending on mission phase (JWST)

    JWST hold conversion and limits in a seperate file that are grouped. Certains "sets" can be used for different mission phases such as test, on-orbit and so on, or for any reason deemed appropriate. XTCE allows one to specify at MOST one of each of these per parameterType

  • Disposition Summary:

    use context alarms

    contextalarms could be managed into a form of sets by having a primary enabling condition check used against all alarm definitions. does nothing for default alarm though which could be simply not used (& would have to appear if such exists in the context list somehow). i think because there's a perhaps cumbersome work around, defer.
