FSW Requirement 5.3.8.2.1.2 (prev, next)


Req. 5.3.8.2.1.2: "Adjustable Accumulation Period"

The 97 VETO rates shall be acquired over an adjustable accumulation period. As a goal, the FSW will complete each acquisition cycle in less than 10 minutes (dependent upon an adjustable accumulation period). Also as a goal, the FSW will allow different accumulation periods to be specified for each of the two hardware counters, so that a smaller time can be used for larger tiles, while a longer time is used for smaller tiles.

Test(s)

    013b: Operational Modes - Science Modes

    This test shall verify correct transitions between the various science observation modes and proper operation of the LAT in those modes. The test shall involve all observation modes: Sky Survey Mode (non-rocking as well as various rocking profiles), Pointed Observation Mode, and Repointed Observation Mode.

    016: LAT Performance Monitoring and Operations

    This test shall verify that the FSW operates properly in every Science Mode, monitoring event data for integrity, tracking changes in event and detector statistics, and generating a report of any detected anomalies.
