xtefilt -- assemble an RXTE filter file from observation inputs
xtefilt -a "appidfile" *REQUIRED* -o "obsid" *REQUIRED* -p "pathname to FITS database" *REQUIRED* -t "timestep (secs)" *REQUIRED* -b "breakfile" -c (clobber) -g "maximum gapsize (secs)" -h (print help) -i (interactive) -f "output filename" -s (put output file into stdprod directory)
xtefilt is a script which assembles the scientifically important parameters from the Spacecraft and Orbit FITS data files for a given observation, derives some additional quantities and creates an XTE filter file.
The current version of XTEDERIVE (called by XTEFILT) computes the following quantities:
'X_RA','X_DEC','Y_RA','Y_DEC','Z_RA','Z_DEC','POINT_RA','POINT_DEC', 'POINT_L','POINT_B','ROLLBIAS','VEL_RA','VEL_DEC','SUN_RA','SUN_DEC', 'MOON_RA','MOON_DEC','SUN_ANGLE','MOON_ANGLE','RAM_ANGLE','ELV', 'MCILWAIN_L','OFFSET','BKGD_THETA','BKGD_PHI','PCU0_ON','PCU1_ON', 'PCU2_ON','PCU3_ON','PCU4_ON','NUM_PCU_ON','TIME_SINCE_SAA','ELECTRON0', 'ELECTRON1','ELECTRON2','ELECTRON3','ELECTRON4','L6CNTPCU0'
This version of XTEFILT requires FCOLLECT v4.2.1 or higher to run properly.
