5.10 FUV Wavelength Settings And Ranges


The following tables show the actual wavelength ranges recorded on the detectors for each valid combination of grating and setting. Note that the FUV settings do not record the central-most wavelengths that fall into the gap between the detector segments. The nominal wavelength setting has been chosen to the shortest wavelength that is adjacent to the gap so that the indicated wavelength is an actually recorded one.
