ETC Request ID: STIS.ta.620459

Requested Signal/Noise Ratio = 40.000

gives: Time = 0.3048 seconds

gives: Time to Saturation (for a single exposure) = 51.37 seconds

Exposure time calculation HAD WARNINGS.

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