Saving Your Model

When you have a model that you like, you will probably want to save it. You can save models in AIPS clean-component tables.

Go back the the model editing tool, pull down the Model menu and select the Save As command. You will see a dialogue similar to that shown in Figure 2.8.

Figure 2.8: The Save Model dialogue. 

The main part of the working area shows an AIPS catalogue listing, similar to that you would get from the PCAT verb, in a scrolling list. You can select the file you want to attach the model to by clicking on it in the list; your data file should be already selected. If you want to choose a file on another disk, type the disk number into the Volume Field and press the tex2html_wrap_inline1879 key: the list now show the catalogue for the new disk.

When you have chosen the main file, type the version number for the clean-component file into the field at the bottom of the working area. This should already be set to a value one greater than the highest clean-component table version already attached to the file (watch it change as you click on different files in the list) so you can usually leave it as it is.

Finally, click on the OK button to save the new model.
