INTRODUCTIONThis document reports the Command Procedures to perform the Diagnostic readouts of the EPIC MOSCCDs. For each of the applicable EMAE Sequences, the relevant command procedure for the CCDreadout in Diagnostic mode is outlined.All the below Procedures are outlined with reference to the EMCS Command Procedure document(EPIC-EST-TP-002 I.3), where the applicable command “bricks” are defined.The content of this document will be reviewed and superseded by the next Issue of the EMCS UserManual (EPIC-EST-OP-002 I.3).2. APPLICABLE DOCUMENTSEPIC-EST-OP-001 I.2 EMCS User Manual, ESTEPIC-EST-TP-002 I.3 Command Procedures for the EPIC MOS Camera System at S/C level, ESTEPIC-EST-LI-0005 I.3 SW configuration for the EMAE unit, EST3. DOCUMENT OVERVIEWThe following readout modes have been considered in this document:• Full Frame – Single Node• Small Window• Small Window – Free Run• Large Window• Large Window – Free Run• Full Frame – Double Node• Refreshed Frame Store – Single Node• Imaging Fast Diagnostic• TimingWith the only exception of the Full Frame – Double Node mode, for all the above modes the CCDreadout from Node 0 has been considered.4. CCD Diagnostic Procedures4.1 Applicable conditionsBefore the execution of each of the following procedures, it is necessary that the experiment is already inthe right configuration from the following point of views: EMCR Memory Load, Focal Plane thermalcontrol, Filter Wheel synchronisation and position, CCD voltages, HBR set-up (Bright Pixel Tables,thresholds, buffer size), window size of the peripheral CCDs. Moreover, it is assumed that, for allperipheral CCDs, the EMAE Sequence iffci10rdp_x.seq is used.EPIC Ref: EPIC-EST-OP-003Issue: 1Page: 2Date: February 2000EPIC SYSTEM TEAMThis means that all the operations described in the Switch-on procedure must be performed in advance,with ES ld iffci10rdp to EMAE per at step 14.The Integration Time settings which are foreseen in these procedure are still under evaluation and theycould be changed in the future.4.2 Full Frame – Single Node modeDescription: This procedure applies when the EMAE Sequence iffci10rdp_0.seq is used in the centralCCD sequencer.• Execute the Full-Frame procedure from step 1 to step 8, with ES ld iffci10rdp to EMAE cen at step 1• Execute the HBR1 transparent and the Enter Diagnostic FF blocks• Execute the HBR3 transparent and the Enter Diagnostic FF blocks• Execute the HBR4 transparent and the Enter Diagnostic FF blocks• Execute the HBR5 transparent and the Enter Diagnostic FF blocks• Execute the HBR6 transparent and the Enter Diagnostic FF blocks• Execute the HBR7 transparent and the Enter Diagnostic FF blocks• Execute the HBR8 transparent and the Enter Diagnostic FF blocks4.3 Small Window modeDescription: This procedure applies when the EMAE Sequence iswci10rdp_0.seq is used in the centralCCD sequencer.• Execute the Small Window procedure from step 1 to step 8, with ES ld iswci10rdp to EMAE at step 1and Small Window (Seq.
