... Science data obtained with STIS are received from the Space Telescope Data Distribution Facility and sent to the STScI pipeline, which unpacks the data, extracts keywords from the telemetry stream, reformats the data, and repackages them into raw, uncalibrated, but scientifically interpretable data files. ... ACQs, ACQ/PEAKs, and all available-mode data are not calibrated by calstis ; you will get only the raw data from observations taken in these modes. ...

... Re : Need easy way to download whole KHG . ... For now, you can use web mirroring packages to create your own local mirror and read from there. Several such packages are available, and since I don't use any of them, I don't have details like names: can someone else who knows please post details? For the future, it would be nice if someone is interested enough in mirroring to write scripts for the KHG that allow you to read it off-line, but also allow you to respond. ...

... The context ASTROMET can be enabled by the command SET/CONTEXT ASTROMET . ... These commands take care of the following: . read the measurements and standard stars, and compute the transformation parameters (this step is performed by the command ASTROMET/TRANSFORM ); . edit the standard star table to remove/restore some stars (this step is performed by the command ASTROMET/EDIT ); . actually compute the converted coordinates (this step is performed by the command ASTROMET/COMPUTE ). ...

... The local offset will be subtracted from the PHA value. Offset subtraction is performed by additively shifting the parameterized dark frame (CCF DarkFrame , section 4.4.10 ) with the value stored in OFFSET in the second extension of CCF ADUConv (section 4.4.4 ), or with the result of rgsoffsetcalc , if available. ... For the time being, no temperature dependence will be included, however consistency will be checked between the current temperature and the temperature for which CCF ADUConv is valid. ...

... This paper describes recent improvements to the FITSIO subroutine library and the fv FITS file viewer and editor, both of which were initially described at previous ADASS conferences. ... Since the time of the last FITSIO update (Pence 1995) a new CFITSIO library has been developed, written entirely in C. CFITSIO is easier for C programmers to build and call than the previously available C wrapper routines built on top of the FORTRAN FITSIO library. ...
