Abstract
Reduced fiscal budgets for DSN engineering documentation have necessitated a search for new and more cost-effective methods of producing the technical data required for equipment procurements and for operation and maintenance support of equipment already on-line at the Deep Space Stations. In the major documentation area of technical manuals, a new plan has been devised for achieving substantial monetary savings without sacrificing the integrity of the manuals or their utility as the central source of operation and maintenance information. Called ‘‘the minimanual,’’ the new type of handbook has thus far shown an effective response to the exigencies of today’s economics. This article describes the minimanual concept, its content and format characteristics, and the results of its first few months of implementation.
