... This paper describes the main algorithms used by the Einstein Level One processing to create the exposure masks and the background maps for Einstein IPC images, and how these algorithms were recreated in the IRAF environment. Our goal was to recreate the algorithms used by the Level One Processing to create exposure masks and background maps for Einstein Image Proportional Counter (IPC) data (cf. sections 2.5 and 2.7 of Harnden et al. ...

... omichain (omichain-1.50) [xmmsas_20070708_1801-7.1.0] . ... The omichain then cycles through each filter in the filter list and processes each exposures in the exposure list for that filter. ... First it checks to see if the exposure is a full-frame low resolution mode, and if so it runs omcomb to combine the four separate image segments into a single full-frame image, which is then processed instead of the individual image segments. ...
