Parameters

This section documents the parameters recognized by this task (if any).

ParameterMand Type Default Constraints
thresholdmaskingyesreal0.02 
The scale factor for excluding regions from the smoothing based on a mask image. In the default mode the average exposure is calculated and then any pixel with exposure less than fraction*average value is excluded.
 
nbandsyesint2 
Number of bands to be combined
 
elowlistyesint350 800 
Low energy for successive bands in eV
 
ehighyesint800 1000 
High energy for successive bands in eV
 
binningyesint1 
Binning control with 1 for no binning, 2,4,8,16,32 for binning by 2, 4,8,16,32.
 
withpartcontrolyesboolyes 
Particle background control, "yes" to subtract the model particle background image.
 
withsoftcontrolyesboolyes 
Soft proton background control, "yes" to subtract the soft proton background image.
 
withoffsetbkgcontrolyesboolyes 
Offset background control, "yes" to subtract the offset background image. This is a feature currently under development and is not yet functional.
 
maskyesdatasetmask.fit 
Mask image file name.
