Housekeeping related keywords

The task also issues a number of housekeeping related messages and values and also writes several keywords to the EXPOSURE extension (the information is usually CCD-dependent and it is thus important that it is kept and propagated through the event file processing chain). The messages appear for verbosities of 4 (recommended value for normal processing) and higher, either specified via e.g. environment variable SAS_VERBOSITY=4 or task parameter ``-V 4". The keywords are written to the event file regardlessly the verbosity, of course.

• Filter: the filter wheel position is derived from the position sensor potentiometer (housekeeping column F1122 contained in the main periodic housekeeping file PNPMH1, HK mnemonic H_CE_FWSPOT). From the fixed positions (CLOSED, THIN1, THIN2, MEDIUM, THICK, OPEN, approximately separated by 60 degrees) the corresponding calibration positions (e.g. CALCLOSED) are obtained by turning the filter wheel back by about 5 degrees. Verbosity of 4 (or higher) gives the minimum and maximum of this housekeeping parameter during the exposure time and the avarage value together with the translated filter name. These are written to the keywords F1122MIN, F1122MAX, F1122AVE, respectively.
• High Voltage: V_VC_UHVx, x = 0..3 (quadrant number), columns F1198, F1199, F1200, F1201, typical values are -162.4, -163.1, -151.5, -161.5 [V], respectively. Keywords written: UHV_MIN, UHV_MAX, UHV_AVE.
• CCD temperature: H_CE_TTMPFPF, column F1128, typical value -89.97 [$^\circ$C], keywords F1128MIN, F1128MAX, F1128AVE
• Quadrant box temperature: E_Cx_TEMPQB1, x = 0..3 (quadrant number), columns F1576, F1676, F1776, F1876 in the auxiliary HK file PNPAH1, respectively. The typical values depend on the instrument mode. Deviations by several degrees from the average value (e.g. if one or two RGS instruments are switched off) indicate that the energy correction may be incomplete later because these gain-temperature-effects need recalibration at the moment. For CCD 4 (whole quadrant 1) typical values are 20.8, 20.8, 20.9, 21.0, 22.7, 21.3 [$^\circ$C] for FF, eFF, LW, SW, TI, BU modes, respectively. Keywords are TQB1_MIN, TQB1_MAX, TQB1_AVE
• Guard ring current: E_Cx_IGRAy, x = 0..3 (quadrant number), y = 0..2 (CCD ID), PNPAH1 column numbers 1571+CCDID+100*Quadrant, keywords IGRA_MIN, IGRA_MAX,IGRA_AVE, there is considerable scatter due to rough digitization ($2-4\mu$A), values slightly temperature dependent
• BadPixelTable code: starting in revolution 293 a unique code identifying the uploaded bad pixel table (column offsets and bad pixels) was put into the HK telemetry, keyword BPT_CODE. This code will also be in the header of the corresponding CCF files ADUCONV and BADPIX (none yet as there was no change of these files since then at the time of writing). It provides an independent check whether the correct ADUCONV and BADPIX calibration files are used.
• Offset map calculation: before each exposure an offset map is calculated onboard using the filter and mode of the subsequent science exposure. The calculation is performed for all quadrants simultaneously, first all central CCDs, then the middle CCDs, and then the outer CCDs of each quadrant. The involved parameters are written to keywords of the form OT_*. As only a small fraction of the calculated offset maps is transmitted to ground these quantities may serve as a tool if problems with the offset map calculation are suspected.
• An almost complete list of available HK columns can be obtained from the XMM technical note ``XMM-SOC-TN-0040-SSD'' ([2])
