Exposure time (seconds) = 3,000.0000 at wavelength 2000.00 Å

gives: SNR = 13.2572 (per resolution element)

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.
