A 15 second flat field line_3: observation followed by a 210 second dark count is performed at each of 10 line_4: discriminator threshold values for each detector. The result of the test line_5: will be the optimal threshold values to be entered into the PDB. ! ! end of abstract general_form_proposers: lname: KRUEGER fname: VERN inst: GODDARD SPACE FLIGHT CENTER country: USA ! lname: GARNER fname: HARRY inst: BALL AEROSPACE SYSTEMS DIV. country: USA ! lname: EBBETS fname: DENNIS inst: BALL AEROSPACE SYSTEMS DIV. country: USA ! lname: WILLIAMS fname: BRUCE inst: BALL AEROSPACE SYSTEMS DIV. country: USA ! lname: TROELTZSCH fname: JOHN inst: BALL AEROSPACE SYSTEMS DIV. country: USA ! ! end of general_form_proposers block general_form_text: question: 2 section: 1 line_1: HRS OV Objectives: line_2: 1. Determine the optimal discriminator thresholds for all non-standard line_3: detector channels. line_5: Discriminator thresholds are derived from PHA data. The line_6: standard algorithm sets the threshold at 50% of the energy of the line_7: peak of the photoelectron pulse height distribution. On each line_8: detector there are a few special and/or slightly noisy channels line_9: which require non-standard threshold values. This test calibrates line_10: the thresholds for those channels to allow for the maximum number line_11: of diodes to be available. ! question: 3 section: 1 line_1: The HRS is configured for high voltage operation on side 1, and the most line_2: recent, default thresholds are loaded and verified. Next, a 10 second line_3: flat field followed by a 210 second dark count are taken to verify default line_4: threshold performance. A series of 10 sets of flat field and dark count line_5: data are then acquired for thresholds of 35 through 80 by increments of line_6: 5. The PHA processor is used to load each set of thresholds. Finally, line_7: the side 1 default thresholds are reloaded. The procedure is then line_8: repeated for side 2. line_10: This is an internal test, and requires no special pointing of the line_11: telescope. ! question: 5 section: 0 line_1: This test should be scheduled to occur outside of the SAA. HST engineering line_2: telemetry must be available in realtime during this test, i.e., TDRSS must be line_3: visible. line_5: This test should be run 3 times during the OV/SV period. It should be scheduled line_6: to be run within 2 weeks following each of the 3 executions of the PHA test. It line_7: is not necessary that the side 1 and side 2 sections be scheduled together. line_9: Prerequisites: line_10: 1. Proposal 1459, Pulse Height Analysis. line_11: This test may be run in parallel with other SI tests. ! question: 7 section: 1 line_1: Count rates during the dark and flat field exposures will be measured as line_2: functions of threshold level. Thresholds for the special channels will be line_3: derived which bring their response as close as possible to the mean of line_4: other channels. line_6: Unuseable channels will be entered in the flight software bad diode table line_7: and/or the cross-talk table. Noisy and anomalous channels will be line_8: identified in the data reduction software. line_10: The threshold load PLCP groups in the PDB will be updated with the results. ! question: 8 section: 1 line_1: This is an internal test and does not require any special pointing of the line_2: telescope. line_4: No target list is required. ! question: 10 section: 1 line_1: 1. Test design support line_2: 2. Test execution support team line_3: 3. Data analysis facilities line_4: 4.
