Exposure time (seconds) = 100.0000 at wavelength 2175.00 Å

gives: SNR = 57.2690 (per resolution element)

Exposure time calculation HAD WARNINGS.

WARNING MESSAGE: MAMA Bright limits: total count rate per image 21059 exceeds limit for irregularly-variable sources 40 percent of the bright limit 30000 counts per second

WARNING MESSAGE: Buffer time 94.9711 is less than minimum 99 seconds.
