PSP - SWEAP SPC - quality flags

ResourceID
spase://CNES/NumericalData/CDPP-AMDA/PSP/SPC/psp-spc-flag

Description

This data set contains annotative quality flags to signify whether a given measurement has been made under ideal conditions. The list of flags is:
* (0) general flag
* (1) primary peak low signal
* (2) no primary peak detected
* (3) cold primary peak or current spike detected
* (4) sensor saturated
* (5) primary peak not bound
* (6) poor Maxwellian fit to primary peak
* (7) flow direction poorly constrained or undetermined
* (8) alpha peak low signal/not identified
* (9) poor Maxwellian fit to alpha peak
* (10) alpha peak not bound
* (11) wind speed off scale high
* (12) wind speed off scale low
* (13) wind speed off scale unknown
* (14) likely proton-alpha confusion
* (15) unusually high noise levels detected
* (16) proton full-scan mode (not peak-tracking)
* (17) reduced data quality: anomalous periodic noise type A, (above 1Hz)
* (18) reduced data quality: anomalous periodic noise type B (under 1Hz)
* (19) temperature/survival heater cycling: potential fluctuations
* (20) reduced data quality: broadband or other anomalous noise (type C)
* (21) fragmented or incomplete spectrum measured
* (22) energy ranging/peak tracking error
* (23) spacecraft maneuver
* (24) not used/TBD
* (25) not used/TBD
* (26) not used/TBD

Description

The “GENERAL FLAG” variable signifies, as broadly as possible, whether a given measurement
has been made under ideal conditions and can be used without caveat. When this variable is
set to 1, there is a condition present of which the user must be made aware
