| Abstract | The Cassini-Huygens mission to Saturn launched in October 1997. The Cassini Plasma Spectrometer (CAPS) is an in-situ instrument and is one of 12 instruments on the orbiter. Cruise science (beyond instrument checkout periods and periodic maintenance) was approved, and over 870 days of data were collected prior to the start of the prime mission. Prime mission operations started in January 2004 and continued through end of June 2008. Given the success of the Cassini mission at Saturn, an extended mission, the Equinox Mission, was approved for an additional two years, ending September 2010. The continuing success of the Equinox mission led to approval of a second extended mission called the Solstice Mission. The Solstice mission has approval through September 2012 with pending approval through July 2017. The Cassini Plasma Spectrometer (CAPS) has generated a wealth of science data and we have over 240 publications. In addition, the CAPS scientists participate in conferences, inter-team collaborations, and community outreach. Collection of data has not been without instrument related challenges. This paper will discuss a few of the in-flight instrument related anomalies experienced by CAPS including timing difference between the engineering model and the flight model, actuator related anomalies, and a latched bit. The analysis will cover how the anomalies were discovered, the techniques used to diagnose the problems in-flight, fixes that were implemented, how the anomalies affected operation of the instrument and collection of science, and lessons learned from the process. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
