4.1.7.2 OM Fast Mode Event List File

OM fast event files (*OM*FAE.FIT) are created for each fast mode science window. Each file contains data from one exposure only and is constituted by one binary table. The binary table consists of the columns listed in Table 17. A more detailed description can be found in [14].
