of these data is not yet complete.
The interpretation
The system operates by
telemetry of two narrow pulses corresponding to two known gamma
levels or generations.
The time between the pulses divided by

backed up with a baro controlled timer.
The radio command
system also supplied signals to actuate the cannister deployment weapon reel out, and emergency cutdown.
Cutdown signals
were also supplied by the fuze backup time and two clock timers
