The XRT controls filter imaging using two sequentially positioned filter wheels. Refer to Section 3 in the `X-Ray Telescope Instrument Guide`
in the `SolarSoft XRT Analysis Guide`_ for more information about the XRT filters. The existing filters are structured as so:

The XRT controls filter imaging using two sequentially positioned filter wheels, as shown in the diagram below. Each wheel houses a variety of filters. By rotating these wheels, scientists can select different filters to study the sun in multiple wavelengths, thereby enhancing the resolution and quality of solar images.
Refer to Section 3 in the `X-Ray Telescope Instrument Guide` in the `SolarSoft XRT Analysis Guide`_ for more information about the XRT filters.
