HELP SECTION
BPFLG
Type: Task
Use: To edit uv data by examining bandpass-like table data in a
batch-like fashion. BP table values outside the specified
amplitude and phase ranges generate data flags output to
the OUTFGVER flag table
Adverbs:
INNAME.....Input UV data file (name). Standard defaults.
INCLASS....Input UV data file (class). Standard defaults.
INSEQ......Input UV data file (seq. #). 0 => highest.
INDISK.....Input UV data file disk drive #. 0 => any.
INVERS.....Input table file version number, 0 -> current highest.
The input file is not changed, but may be sorted.
FLAGVER....specifies the version of the flagging table to be applied
to the data on input. 0 -> highest, -1 -> none.
If the specified input flag table already exists, it is
copied to the output flag table if OUTFGVER=0.
OUTFGVER...Flag table version to be used on output for both single-
and multi-source data sets. If OUTFGVER is <= 0 or
greater than FGmax (the previously highest FG version
number), then a new FG table will be created for the new
flags with version FGmax+1. This new table will also
contain the flags from FG version FLAGVER. If OUTFGVER
specifies a pre-existing FG version, then the input
flags are not copied even if OUTFGVER and FLAGVER are
not equal.
TIMERANG...Time range of the data to be edited. In order:
Start day, hour, min. sec, end day, hour, min. sec. Days
are relative to the reference date.
BIF........The lowest numbered IF to include. 0 => 1.
EIF........The highest numbered IF to include. 0 =>highest.
Note: not all data sets will have IFs.
BCHAN......The lowest spectral channel to include. 0 -> 1
ECHAN......The highest spectral channel to include. 0 -> max
ANTENNAS...A list of antenna numbers to include. 0 => all.
BADDISK....The disk numbers to avoid for scratch files (sorting
tables mostly).
