Wind/WAVES Summary Plots

Plot Format

The Wind/WAVES summary plots show, from top to bottom:

Combined background-subtracted dynamic spectra of the Radio Receiver Band 1 (RAD1, 20-1040 kHz) and Radio Receiver Band 2 (RAD2, 1.075-13.825 MHz) in TM units (data numbers). The linear frequency scale is in kHz.

Background-subtracted dynamic spectrum of the Thermal Noise Receiver (TNR, 4-256 kHz) in dBVolts. The logarithmic frequency scale is in kHz.

Automatic Gain Control (AGC) values for the five frequency bands of TNR together with |B| values in nT from the Magnetic Field Investigation (MFI) also onboard Wind. The TNR frequency bands from top are 64-256 kHz for E, 32-128 kHz for D, 16-64 kHz for C, 8-23 kHz for B, and 4-16 kHz for A.

Data quality, where zeros indigate good, negative values bad, and positive values missing minor frame (MF) data. The corresponding counts are plotted above the top left corner of the combined dynamic spectrum.

RAD2 status showing Antenna ('Ey'), Mode ('?', 'FIX', 'LIN', 'LIST'), SUM/SEP ('SUM', 'SEP'), and Toggle ('ON', 'OFF'). When status changes the new status is written where it happens. The status at the beginning is written left of the dotted tracer line.

RAD1 status showing Antenna ('Ex', 'Ey'), Mode ('?', 'FIX', 'LIN', 'LIST'), SUM/SEP ('SUM', 'SEP'), and Toggle ('ON', 'OFF'). When status changes the new status is written where it happens. The status at the beginning is written left of the dotted tracer line.

TNR status showing Antenna ('ExEy', 'ExEz', 'EyEz', 'EyEx'), Mode ('A-16', 'B-16', 'A-32', 'B-32', 'AB-16'), and Sweep ('?', 'FIX', 'ABCDE', 'ACE', '.', 'NN'). When status changes the new status is written where it happens. The status at the beginning is written left of the dotted tracer line.
