EPIC Bad Pixels
D Lumb
February 6, 2001
1 Changes
2 Scientific Impact of this Update
Necessary to track changes in bad pixel settings. There was a database update in June, to cover
the new list of bad pixel locations found during the CAL/PV phase of operations, and thus to be
uplinked at the start of each observation. However this was not reflected in the the procedures for
the start of unscheduled exposures, for example due to commanding losses, timeline interruptions
etc.. In such cases the old bad pixel tables were used. The listings of such exposures have been
collated and the different CCF versions propogated to account for an appropriate validity date.
Note that from the database update that occurred at Rev 171­192, the CAL CLOSED exposures
actually have an offset of 50 applied to CCD11 Column64 which is not consistent with the CCF. This
is left in as we have no tracking mechanism at this level of detail, and science analysis of CLOSED
CAL data will not be materially affected.
3 Estimated Scientific Quality
Note that in all the EPIC cameras there are intermittent bad pixels that may arise in only one
exposure. The user is recommended to run the bad pixel finding algorithm, and remove after
processing.
