NDADS filename: DOCUMENT_RIMS_CATALOGUE.SFD TRF entry: b46607.txt in NSSDC's controlled digital document library, Feb. 1998. Document text follows: ---------------------- TYPE_OF_FILE_NAME: RIMS Data Catalogue Listing FILE_ATTRIBUTES: ASCII Text file TYPE_OF_FILE_DESCRIPTION: Each line of ASCII text represents one RIMS operation cycle and lists the instrument on/off time (UT) and data quality information. The file name is CATALOGUE.TXT DESCRIPTION: CATALOGUE.TXT file contents OPERATION CYCLE NUMBER: The operation cycle number. An operation cycle begins with an instrument "on" command and ends with an instrument "off" command. Note that more than one operation cycle may be performed during a single spacecraft orbit. DATE: The year and daynumber is coded as (YEAR-1900) * 1000 + DAYNUMBER TIME INTERVAL: The start/stop time (UT) of the operation cycle (HHMM). ARCHIVE FLAG: Used by RIMS team to flag which data have been archived to optical disk. The numerical entry is the disk number on which the data resides. Other entries are: nd or no= no data or too little data to archive. This entry usually means no useful data was collected. Used also whenever the electrometer was operated with the channeltrons off. In this latter case, the nd entry is followed by a notation of "Electrometer only". oo = the data was not on hand when the rest of the data was written to the optical platter. Usually means the data was placed on order from GSFC. QUALITY INFORMATION: Text to summarize data anomalies, data gaps, and data processing problems. Several terms and shorthand notations are used in this file. A notation of "Sunpulse" means that a response of the radial head detector to solar UV can be seen in spectrograms of the data, identified as a locus of low counts in the low mass detectors that follows a straight line and is not organized according to spin angle. Shorthand notations include the following: DNA = data not available followed by a universal time (UT), eg. DNA:1402-1500 means data not available for the times 1402 UT to 1500 UT. This entry is usually used when data was collected on the spacecraft but did not survive to the telemetry end product. LMCD = low mass channel degraded. Recognizable as H+ counts that are lower than the He+ counts in the high mass channel. Usually occurs when the spacecraft is in the plasmasphere. BMD = Bad memory dump. When this is noted, the telemetry was in error or bits were incorrectin the RIMS memory. In either case, no data is obtained.
