Code Description:
Reads ACE-flux.dat, the output file produced by
ace-flux.pl, and calculates the "ACIS" flux. It adds this
amount (multiplied by the sample time = 300 seconds) to the
previous value thus producing an orbital fluence. The script
is run every 5 mins via CRON. If the fluence in the ACE/EPAM
FP6p channel exceeds 1E9, an alert is dispatched to
'acisdude'. The alert also includes the next 3 COMM
opportunities in case ground intervention is required. The DSN
information comes from reading in a DSN schedule file produced
by Robert Cameron. This script reads in the focal plane and gratings
history files produced by acis-backstop.pl to determine the
"ACIS" flux. It also reads in the Chandra ephemeris to
determine where Chandra is in its orbit. The orbital fluences
are reset to zero at perigee and the previous orbit's fluences
are added to an orbital fluence archive.
