AIPS HELP file for OUT2SEQ in 31DEC18
As of Sat Apr 21 20:35:13 2018
HELP SECTION
OUT2SEQ
Type: Adverb (Real)
Use: Data files are stored in AIPS under logical names which have 3
parts: a 12-character "name" field, a 6-character "class" field,
and a numeric "sequence number" field. OUT2SEQ is used to specify
the "sequence number" field for the secondary output data file
from a verb or task. It is used as an integer number between -1
and 9999.
Null values: 0 and -1
-1 means to use the same sequence number as that found for the
first input image (actual INSEQ with null value filled in). 0
means find the image having the highest sequence number which is
consistent with the other output name adverb parameters and use a
sequence number 1 higher. If there is no such image, then use
OUTSEQ of 1. The phrase "0 => highest unique", used a lot in Help
files, is intended to be a code for this standard default behavior.
Tasks:
SCMAP.......Images, Cleans, self-cals in an iterative loop.
UTESS.......Deconvolves polarization images by maximizing emptiness.
VTESS.......Deconvolves sets of images by the Maximum Entropy Method.
