The watch-dog timer in the onboard MPU program is usually reset by an interrupt
from the DP I/F board, but this did not properly work for one time, causing a
watch-dog time out. The event seems a single event, and we do not observe the same
event to repeat.

12/18 XIS1 anomaly. See this suzaku memo for detail.
11/26 10:00 - 18:00
XIS CPU program update. No XIS data can be used for scientific purposes.
10/12 4:00-10/14 12:10
After a diagnostic operation of XIS0, the senor failed to go back to
observation. Resultantly, XIS0 was unoperational during the period
above. Other sensors (XIS1 and 3) were in operation, but their dark
levels may be inproperly estimated until 10/14 10:30. Users are advised
not to use data during this period without a consultation to the XIS team.
7/6 10:37:09 - 7/7 05:27:29
During the observation of TT Ari, the erroneous dark frame
problem occurred in all the sensors. The event data in
RAWY < 119 were affected by this problem.
See this page for the detail of this symptom.
6/23 - 9/7, 10/12
Diagnostic operations for XIS0 were occasionally performed.
XIS0 data obtained during this period might include some frames
for diagnostic purposes, which should be removed for data
reduction by general users.
6/27 16:30
The area discrimination (RAWX=70-150) is applied for all the data
obtained from this time onward, which masks most of the fake events
due to the leak current in the XIS0 segment A.
6/23 2:00
An anomaly occurred in XIS0. A part of the XIS0 segment A was
suddenly flooded by a large amount of leak current, leaving an
unrecoverable damage to the XIS0.
In the Normal clocking mode, a part of the XIS0 segment A
(RAWX=70-150) became dysfunctional. In some data, spurious events
appear around RAWY=1024 in the remaining part of the segment A.
No significant change in the detector response is found.
However, users need to take a special care to reduce data taken by
XIS0 segment A in the Normal clocking mode after the event.
In the Psum clocking mode, the effect reaches to the entire XIS0
sensor. All data taken in the Psum clocking mode after the event
are inappropriate for any scientific use.

data in this period may not be usable due to the significantly
different performance and the telemetry saturation.

XIS event rates increased up to 10^3 cnts/8s/segment probably
due to the large solar flare (X9.0) occurred at 10:18.

3/15 2:18 - 3:02
XIS1 light leak error. Light leak estimation became incorrect
during the micro-code upload. XIS1 data in this period may not
be usable.
3/10 5:45 - 6:30
XIS1 light leak error. During the recovery operation from
the temperature anomaly mentioned above, light leak estimation
became incorrect. XIS1 data in this period may not be usable.
3/10 5:06 - 5:45
Temperature anomaly in XIS1. CCD temperature decreased
down to -92 degC, although the HK data showed incorrect value
around -45 degC. No significant impact on the data,

Event threshold of FI sensors was changed to 100 adu.
2/17 13:56 - 15:37
Temperature anomaly in XIS1 CCD temperature decreased
down to -92 degC, although the HK data showed incorrect value
around -84 degC. No significant impact on the data,
but the sensor might have slightly different gain.
2/13 16:15
Soft current limit of TEC was reduced to 92% to avoid excess
thermal stress to the XIS heat sink assembly. After this,
CCD temperature might show temporary excursion of a few
degrees, which has no impact on the data quality.
2/8 15:02
Event threshold of FI sensors was changed to 60 adu.
2/2 12:42 - 19:50

may or may not be usable for scientific analysis. After this
software update, G7-equivalent grades were rejected on board.

9/4 4:55 - 15:39
Temperature anomaly in XIS0. CCD temperature decreased below
-90 degC, although the HK data showed incorrect value of -80 degC.
