END_OBJECT = TEXT END Trigger A4 Description Sequence: S05,... Trigger A4 ( HRSED 182 kbps Hirate Mode ) This mode is designed to provide a hirate mode for analyzing fine structure of SED's, while also providing a low temporal resolution spectrum at the spectral resolution. This is accomplished by running the WBR in the "down-convert" mode, using the 25-KHz wide signal provided by the HFR, which is simultaneously running in millisecond at the frequency provided to the WBR. This mode of operation is paused every 64 seconds for 8 seconds, in order to perform a normal analysis sweep, nominally in SEDDF mode. At this time, the LFDR is also sampled. These provide the low temporal resolution spectrum. At each 64-second interval the millisecond mode frequency is toggled between each of two selections: 2 MHz and 10 MHz. These frequencies could be tweaked with additional commands. WFR data acquisition and Dust detection are not done. Langmuir Probe sweeps are performed every 640 seconds. A Sounder measurement is scheduled every 10 minutes. It is assumed that prior to this trigger, either trigger A0 (SEDDF) or trigger 8E (Night-Time Survey) was in effect.
