# Routine Descriptions

## FA_DESPUN_E_LOAD

[Next Routine] [List of Routines]

    NAME:
     fa_despun_e_load
    PURPOSE:
     Loads FAST ESA L2 data for a given file(s), or time_range, or orbit range
    CALLING SEQUENCE:
     fa_despun_e_load, trange=trange, type=type, datatype=datatype, orbit=orbit
    INPUT:
     All via keyword, if none are set, then the output of timerange() is
     used for the time range, which may prompt for a time interval
    KEYWORDS:
     datatype, type = ['esv', 'e4k', 'e16k'], 'esv' (Survey data) is the default
     trange = read in the data from this time range, note that if both
              files and time range are set, files, and orbits take precedence in
              finding files.
     orbit = if set, load the given orbit(s)
     no_time_clip = if set do not clip the data to the time range. The
                    trange is only used for file selection. Note that
                    setting no_time_clip will always generate a reload of data
    OUTPUT:
     tplot variables, ['E_ALONG_V', 'E_NEAR_V']

## FA_LOAD_MAG_HR_DCB

[Previous Routine] [List of Routines]

    NAME:
      fa_load_mag_hr_dcb

    PURPOSE:
      Loads FAST high rate dc magnetic field(DCB) data using SPDF web services.
      Imports into tplot

    Keywords:
      trange: specify data time range different from the one provided by timespan/timerange()
      tplotnames: get a list of the loaded variables

    NOTES:
      #1 Data available(sporadically) for dates 1996-09-28 to 1998-10-09
        good test date: timespan,'1998-10-01',3,/hour
