USAGE

DESCRIPTION

uvottfc reads a FITS-ified Swift UVOT TDRSS finding chart packet and generates a source list and a sparse image.

PARAMETERS

infile [filename]

Name of the input FITS TDRSS finding chart packet.

outfile [filename]

Name of the output source list file.

sparsefile [filename]

Name of the output sparse image of NONE.

teldeffile [filename]

Name of the UVOT telescope definition file or CALDB.

badpixlist [filename]

Name of the UVOT bad pixel list or CALDB.

(smooth = yes) [boolean]

Whether or not to smooth the sparse image.

(exposure = DEFAULT) [string]

Exposure duration estimate [s] or DEFAULT. The user can also override the default scale for rate errors with exposure~scale. For example, 200~1 indicates no increase in rate errors (a scale factor of 1) due to exposure uncertainty. The special string DEFAULT indicates to look up the exposure duration in a table- the finding chart exposure duration has changed during the mission.

(chatter = 1) [integer, 0 - 10]

Controls the amount of informative text written to standard output. chatter values above 5 are probably only useful for testing.

EXAMPLES

1. Execute uvottfc prompting the user for parameter values.

	uvottfc

2. Execute uvottfc overriding the default exposure time.

	uvottfc infile=swufc.fits exposure=300
