ETC Request ID: STIS.ta.1029596

Requested Signal/Noise Ratio = 40.000

gives: Time = 3.4927 seconds

gives: Time to Saturation (for a single exposure) = 503.50 seconds

Exposure time calculation HAD WARNINGS.

WARNING MESSAGE: Partial overlap between instrument throughput band and target spectrum. Please doublecheck the wavelength range covered by the selected spectrum, and the instrument documentation for the selected filter.
