... CL Script for creating daily dark files . ... Data . ... The latter will ensure that one will also retrieve the appropriate "weekly bias" and "weekly dark" reference files. ... The parameter file should look like this: (Where basedark means the reference weekly dark ) infiles = Input dark image(s) to be combined/normalized basedark = Name of baseline superdark file (biasfile = ) Name of reference bias file to be used (outfile = day_ dark .fits ) Name of output normalized ...

Adding a few refinements to the DISCals script makes a script worth adapting for your own uses. ... The exposure times and # of iterations are short so the demo runs quickly. def __init__(self, sr): Display the exposure status panel. # if True, run in debug-only mode (which doesn't DO anything, it just pretends) sr.debug = False expStatusWdg = ExposeStatusWdg( master = sr.master, instName = DIS , ) expStatusWdg.grid(row=0, column=0) # get the exposure model self.expModel = ...

... The Miriad task uvgen can be used to simulate a variety of observing modes. ... Simulating a telescope approximately, let alone in some detail, requires a good many parameters. uvgen takes an appreciable number of parameters and input files to describe the telescope, correlator and source. Fortunately keyword and set-up files for some common situations exist ( e.g. simulating the ATCA and VLA). ... For example, to load typical parameters for the ATCA, use miriad% source $MIRCAT/uvgen.def.atca . ...
