MHER6 OBC Program AnomalyUnder certain, rare circumstances the packet reference times (PRT's) contained in I6 packets can be in error by 1 software cycle (31.25 msec) when compared with their expected values. Normally the difference in PRT's between two I6 packets during an observation is constant and given by:
Energy Sampling Rate (Hz)
In principle, a similar error can occur if any high time resolution program eg. GDIR, MDIR (or MHER7) is executed in slot 5 or 6 and, these programs will therfore in future be executed only in program slots 1-4. A.N. Parmar
