Trigger 12 Description

Sequence: All
Trigger 12 (Basic Survey Mode)
This mode is designed to provide a Survey with fast temporal resolution and standard spectral resolution for periods when an IEB has not been loaded. Periodic Waveform measurements are made. The entire RPWS frequency range (1 Hz - 16 MHz) is covered. The onboard dust detection algorithm is activated, and looks for dust using the LP sensor.

Receiver Frequency Range Sensors Time between Snapshots
LFR 1 - 25 Hz EX, BZ 16 seconds
MFR 25 - 12 KHz EX, BX 32 seconds
WFR .05 - 2.5 KHz EX, EW, BX, BY, BZ 341 seconds
HFR 3.6 KHz - 16 MHz EX, EW 9.875 seconds


The HFR is in CMS mode (Composite Mode Survey). No direction-finding is done. This mode is defined by:

Bands ABC require 3.16 sec to complete, H1 requires 5.05 sec, and H2 requires 1.46 sec for a total of 9.67 sec per sweep. Data collection and output limits the snapshot time to 9.875 seconds.
