Trigger 80 Description
Sequence: C23, C24, C25
Trigger 80 (Direction-Finding Survey)
This mode is designed to provide a Survey with fast temporal resolution
and standard spectral resolution for periods during Jupiter Flyby. Periodic Waveform
measurements are made.
The entire RPWS frequency range (1 Hz - 16 MHz) is covered.

The HFR is in direction-finding mode for its entire frequency
range from 3.6 KHz to 16 MHz. Thus, measurements are made on all three
monopoles EU, EV and EW.
This mode is defined by:
Correlations Channels Integ. Size Frequency
Band Ant. Auto- Cross- per Band df Period Rep Steps kHz Start - Stop
---- ---- ----- ------ -------- -- ------ --- ----- ---- ------------
ABC 2E y y 32 y 250 1 3.6-319 kHz
H1 2E y y 1 y 80 1 76 50 325k-4.1MHz
H2 2E y y 1 y 80 1 61 200 4.0M-16MHz
Bands ABC require 1.66 sec to complete, H1 requires 13.06 sec, and H2 requires 10.50 sec
for a total of 25.22 sec per sweep. However, to allow time for LFR and MFR snapshots to
occur without interference, one complete sweep is done every 32 seconds. To avoid the
interference from the DF mode, the MFR uses the EW antenna.
