Figure 6.3-3. LECP EDR Science Data Block Organization (CR-3)
Logical records are written into physical record data blocks according to the following algorithm:
Let K.1, K.2, K.3 denote segments 1,
2, and 3 of logical record K.
Let N = (SCT60 Modulo 6)/2 = 0

| 40 | 14.1 | 80 | 27.2 | 120 | 40.3 |
Logical Record 1 appears at the beginning of a data block once every three physical records (120 MF; 4.8 min) when SCT60 Modulo 6 = 0. A segment number of (SCT60 Modulo 6)/2+1 will be inserted into the EDR header of each physical record to indicate which of the above three data block patterns appear in a given physical record.
