Trigger 1 Description

Sequence: All
Trigger 1 (Internal 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 onboard dust detector is activated, using the EZ antenna. The entire RPWS frequency range (1 Hz - 16 MHz) is covered.

Receiver Frequency Range Sensors Time between Snapshots
LFR 1 - 25 Hz EX, BX 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:
