| QUALITY INDICATORS | ||||||||
| Quality Indicator Bit Field (if a bit is on (=1), the statement is true) bit 31: do not use scan for product generation bit 30: time sequence error detected within this scan (see below) bit 29: data gap precedes this scan (gap may be due to actual lost scans or scans in which the TIP or MIU are in non-nominal modes) bit 28: insufficient data for calibration (see below) bit 27: earth location data not available (see below) bit 26: first good time following a clock update (nominally 0) bit 25: instrument status changed with this scan bits 24 - 5: <zero fill> bit 4: transmitter status change occurred (see note 2) bit 3: AMSU sync error detected bit 2: AMSU minor frame error detected bit 1: AMSU major frame error detected bit 0: AMSU parity error detected |
25 | 28 | u | 4 | 1 | 0 | ||
| Scan Line Quality Flags [Time Problem Code] (If a bit is on (=1),
the statement is true. All bits off implies the scan time is as
expected.) bit 7: time field is bad but can probably be inferred from the previous good time bit 6: time field is bad and can't be inferred from the previous good time bit 5: this record starts a sequence that is inconsistent with previous times (i.e., there is a time discontinuity). This may be associated with a spacecraft clock update. (See bit 26, Quality Indicator Bit Field.) bit 4: start of a sequence that apparently repeats scan times that have been previously accepted bits 3-0: <zero fill> |
29 | 29 | u | 1 | 1 | 0 | ||
| Scan Line Quality Flags [Calibration Problem Code] (If a bit is on
(=1), the statement is true. These bits complement the channel
indicators; all bits set to 0 indicates normal calibration.) Word 1 bits 7-2: <zero fill> bit 1: scan line contains one or more space views that are lunar contaminated bit 0: lunar-contaminated scan line was able to be calibrated (only applicable if the previous flag [bit 1] is 1; otherwise, zero) Word 2 bit 7: scan line was not calibrated because of bad time bit 6: scan line was calibrated using fewer than the preferred number of scan lines because of proximity to start or end of data set or to a data gap bit 5: scan line was not calibrated because of bad or insufficient PRT data bit 4: scan line was calibrated but with marginal PRT data bit 3: some uncalibrated channels on this scan (see channel indicators) bit 2: uncalibrated due to instrument mode bit 1: questionable calibration because of antenna position error of space view bit 0: questionable calibration because of antenna position error of OBCT view |
30 | 31 | u | 1 | 2 | 0 | ||
| Scan Line Quality Flags [Earth Location Problem Code] (If a bit is
on (=1), the statement is true. All bits set to 0 implies the earth
location was normal.) bit 7: not earth located because of bad time; earth location fields zero-filled bit 6: earth location questionable: questionable time code (see time problem flags above) bit 5: earth location questionable: marginal agreement with reasonableness check bit 4: earth location questionable: fails reasonableness check bit 3: earth location questionable because of antenna position check bits 2-0: <zero fill> |

item is up-to-date. If bit = 1, associated telemetry item was not
updated during most recent telemetry cycle - possibly due to lost
frame.) bits 31-18: <zero fill> bit 17: SARR-B power bit 16: SARR-A power bit 15: STX-3 power bit 14: STX-2 power bit 13: STX-1 power bit 12: STX-4 status bit 11: STX-3 status bit 10: STX-2 status bit 9: STX-1 status bit 8: Scan mechanism temperature bit 7: Electronics equipment temperature bit 6: Receiver temperature bit 5: Main converter protect disable bit 4: MHS power B bit 3: MHS power A bit 2: RF converter protect disable bit 1: MHS survival heater bit 0: Main bus select status |

| <Zero Fill> | 2869 | 3072 | i | 2 | 102 | 0 | NOTES: 1) The MHS Level 1b data will not contain any MIU related analog or digital B telemetry items from the NOAA data stream. These items will be archived in a separate NOAA telemetry file. 2) To determine the word location and bit location within the word of a particular FOV's validity flag, use the following equations: word = truncate((FOV - 1) / 8) + 1 bit = (FOV - 1) mod 8 For example, FOV 64's validity flag is located in bit 7 of word 8, computed as follows: word = truncate (64 - 1) / 8) + 1 = truncate (63 / 8) + 1 = truncate (7.875) + 1 = 7 + 1 = 8; bit = (64 - 1) mod 8 = 63 mod 8 = 7 3) The limits are defined in the Telemetry Limits Table, which is loaded into the instrument's memory. This table can be found in Appendix B of MHS TM-TC and Science Data Format Directory, and in Table 3.2.2.2.9-3 of MHS Instrument ICD. There are two levels of limits: "warning" limits and "fault" limits. If a telemetry item goes outside of the "warning" limits, then this bit is set. If the telemetry item goes outside of the "fault" limits, then an error flag is raised in the "fault code" field and the instrument switches to "fault" mode. 4) This bit is related to the Earth/Space/OBCT View Position Validity Flags. It is set by the instrument and comes in the data stream. The Position Validity Flags are set by the preprocessor. If this bit is set, then at least one bit of the Position Validity Flags should be set also. |
