Placed 15° above and below equatorial plane of the spacecraft, the Faraday Cups measure ion charge flux as a function of epoch, cup number, orientation angle, and bias grid potential. For each time point, a full spectrum is comprised of charge flux measurements at the two Faraday cup sensors at 20 azimuth angles for each of 31 energy-per-charge windows with 1240 data points per spectrum. Spectra are built up over approximately 92 s intervals. The effective area of the Faraday cup sensor as a function of incidence angle onto the cup is also provided.

Year zero i convention chosen by NSSDC to measure epoch values. This date is more commonly referred to a BC. Remember tha BC wa leap year. The CDF date/time calculations do not take into account the changes to the Gregorian calendar, and cannot be directly converted into Julian date/times. To convert CDF epochs into date/times and vice versa, you should only use the CDF_EPOCH routine with either the BREAKDOWN_EPOCH or CONVERT_EPOCH keywords. This Parameter exhibits an increasing Monotonic Progression.
