From the SPI operation point of view, three main different phases can be identified, (1) the first 2 months (pvphase), (2) from the pvphase to the first annealing (approximately revolution 20 to 38), (3) from the first annealing up to the latest revolutions. During the first period, various modes and setups have been tried and the data are a bit more difficult to analyze. During the second one, because of the telemetry budget limitation, all the information from the individual single events could not be downloaded. They were binned on-board and transmitted to ground in the form of spectra instead. The software can handle these spectra in a rather transparent way, although it may be useful to keep this fact in mind in some cases. During the third period starting after the first annealing the full information about all events has been downloaded to the ground and SPI has been operated in the standard scientific photon mode. It may also be useful to know that at the beginning of this period, between the first and the second annealing, data were lost at different rates also due to telemetry limitation. These losses are taken into account in the analysis, and you may notice unusual ratio between the ontimes, which exclude the data loss gaps, and the difference between the GTI stops and starts.
