Exposure time (seconds) = 200.0000 at wavelength 2630.00 Å

gives: SNR = 40.9495 (per resolution element)

Exposure time calculation HAD WARNINGS.

WARNING MESSAGE: MAMA Bright limits: total count rate per image 140898 exceeds limit for irregularly-variable sources 40 percent of the bright limit 200000 counts per second

WARNING MESSAGE: Buffer time 14.1947 is less than minimum 99 seconds.
