This will be the same value as in the filename of the input engineering file. is one of the following 4-character values (the same value as in the filename of the input engineering file): PIX# (pixel list mode data; # is a 1-digit version number to distinguish the different dumps that might result from a single observation) HIS# (histogram mode data) CNT# (count rate mode data) is the level of data processing of the data. It can take two possible values: ENG (Engineering level data, CODMAC level 2, EDR) SCI (Science level data, CODMAC level 3, REDR) is a running version number to allow for different processing runs of the data (e.g., with different, improved calibrations) The extension is always FIT since these are all FITS files. ================================================================= WHOM TO CONTACT FOR INFORMATION ================================================================= For questions concerning this volume or the data sets and documentation contained herein, contact: Dr. Andrew J.
