ETC Request ID: STIS.sp.918692

Requested Signal/Noise Ratio = 100.000 at wavelength 2100.00 Å (per resolution element)

gives: Time = 2,698.3717 seconds

Exposure time calculation HAD WARNINGS.

WARNING MESSAGE: MAMA Bright limits: total count rate per image 80359.5 exceeds limit for irregularly-variable sources 40 percent of the bright limit 200000 counts per second

WARNING MESSAGE: Buffer time 24.8882 is less than minimum 99 seconds.
