Exposure time (seconds) = 633.0000 at wavelength 1978.00 Å

gives: SNR = 65.3847 (per resolution element)

Exposure time calculation HAD WARNINGS.

WARNING MESSAGE: MAMA Bright limits: total count rate per image 93960.2 exceeds limit for irregularly-variable sources 40 percent of the bright limit 200000 counts per second
