Trigger 28 Description

Sequence: C18,...
Trigger 28 (Interplanetary Cruise with Direction-Finding)

     This mode is designed to provide a low bit-rate Survey with low temporal
and spectral resolution for periods during cruise. No Wideband or Waveform
measurements are made. The entire RPWS frequency range (1 Hz - 16 MHz) is covered.


Receiver      Frequency Range       Sensors       Time between Snapshots
--------      ----------------        -------         ----------------------
  LFR          1 - 25 Hz       EX, BX    32 seconds
  MFR         25 - 12 KHz       EX, BZ    32 seconds
  HFR       3.6 KHz - 16 MHz         E    64 seconds

The HFR is in direction-finding mode for the frequency range from 3.6 KHz to 2 MHz.
Thus, measurements are made on all three monopoles EU, EV and EW for Bands ABC and
Band H1, but for Band H2, only on the dipole EX.

This mode is defined by:

          Correlations     Channels        Integ.                Size Frequency

Bands ABC require 6.34 sec to complete, H1 requires 6.07 sec, and H2 requires 4.68 sec
for a total of 17.09 sec per sweep. However, to keep the bit rate down the HFR only
performs one complete sweep every 64 seconds.
