Count rate conversion from other X-ray satellite missions

For the conversion of count rates from other X-ray satellites to count rates expected for the different XMM detectors, we recommend the use of the PIMMS software from NASA's HEASARC (at the URL http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/Tools/w3pimms.html).
