Abstract
Data for the soft X-ray source 1E0630 + 178 are now available from four independent measurements of the Einstein and EXOSAT missions. These are presented and compared in the light of the different characteristics and energy response of the different X-ray imaging detectors used (IPC, LE 1, LE 2). The time variability on medium (hours) time scale is also investigated.
