After each exposure record there will be an instrument configuration
record. If the exposure record describes an RGS exposure then the
instrument configuration record will be an RGS Configuration Record.
The record will detail the instrument configuration in terms
of the instrument programmable parameter values obtained from the
proposal information. This is the information contained within
the proposal database which defines the exposure.

- Identifies the record as an RGS Configuration Record.
- Identifies the number of lines (number of instrument
programmable parameters) to follow
- The syntax of these lines should be identical to the syntax of a
FITS card image (keyword = value / comment) [3,2]
