Trigger A0 ( SEDDF Mode )                                                     
                                                                              
This mode is designed to provide a Survey mode capable of detecting SED's and 
doing 2-antenna direction-finding on them, with standard temporal resolution  
and spectral resolution.Both low-frequency and high-frequency WFR             
measurements are made, using "toggle" mode. Dust detection is included.       
Langmuir Probe sweeps are performed every 640 seconds. A Sounder measurement  
is scheduled every 10 minutes. MFDR measurements are made every 32 seconds,   
which provides MFR2 replacement data, while the LFR measurements are also     
made every 32 seconds, providing the 25-Hz LFR data. The HFR uses shorter     
integration constants for H1 and H2, with the goal to detect SED's, and it is 
run twice as fast as the other survey modes.

The HFR is in a modified "Composite Survey" mode, which includes              
both auto- and cross-correlations for H1, and differs from standard           
Survey mode in that its integration constants for H1 and H2 are shorter.      
This mode is defined by:

Bands ABC require 3.16 sec to complete, H1 requires 1.57 sec, and H2 requires 
0.65 sec for a total of 5.62 sec per sweep. However, the time between         
analyses is set to 8 seconds to reduce the bit rate.  Every 600 seconds the   
HFR normal analyses are interrupted by a Sounder analysis.  The Sounder       
operation has a duration of approximately 40 seconds.  This Sounder analysis  
is defined by:
