... Several of the tasks in the spectral package share a common set of parameters. ... Each task in the spectral package has a hidden parameter which points to the pkgpars parameter file. The parameters stored here include the observed data sets and the model descriptor, and instrument-specific parameters. ... The observed counts and error data set contained in the table file ( *_obs.tab ) produced by qpspec will be the input data for subsequent spectral tasks. ...

... The SF does not contain all the information required to process the ODF with the SAS. odfingest extends the SF with data extracted from the instrument housekeeping data files and the calibration database. It creates a new summary file: the SAS ODF Summary File (SOSF). ... The user need not have write access to the ODF directory. odfingest uses the parameter outdir to learn where to write the SOSF. ... Alternatively, the name of the SOSF can be passed to odfingest with the parameter summaryfile . ...

... For reducing data from ESO instrumentation it is assumed that the FITS headers conform the standards set by the document ``ESO Archive, Data Interface Requirements''. ... As an example, in the ESO case the exposure type is stored in the ESO hierarchical FITS keyword `HIERARCH ESO GEN EXPO TYPE'. ... To fill the CCD keywords with the telescope and instrument setup parameters, like name of the telescope, CCD used, read-out noise, frame size, etc. the command LOAD/CCD can be used. ...
