Caption: Figure 7.

A graphical representation of an entire sweep table for SPAN-E as loaded into instrument memory for two tables with different energy ranges. The black “X” symbols represent the entire range of possible deflector/hemisphere voltage combinations. The blue trace marks the combination and time order of the discrete steps in voltage values executed during a “full” sweep; the green trace represents the values during a targeted sweep where the peak bin from the full sweep is indicated by the four bold black “X”s. Each red X is one of four “microsteps” in deflection, the counts from which are binned into a single deflection bin in the data products. The top figure is a table spanning the full FOV and 2 eV–2 keV, the bottom is the full FOV spanning 20 eV–20 keV. The FOV is limited for measurements above 4 keV due to the maximum allowable voltage on the deflector high-voltage supplies.
