RIFRM: Update CL and TE tables from ALBUS text files
INPUTS
INNAME Input name(name).
INCLASS Input name(class).
INSEQ 0.0 9999.0 Input name(seq. #). 0=>high
INDISK Input disk drive #. 0=>any
SOURCES Sources to update
GAINVER Input CL table #
GAINUSE Output CL table #
ASDMFILE Text file with IFRM values
ANTENNAS Desired antennas when VLBA
HELP SECTION
RIFRM
Type: Task
Use: RIFRM will replace the IFR and dispersive delay values in a CL
table with values read from an ALBUS text file. It will also
create and/or update a TE table if possible. The AIPS ALBUS
task performs this operation after running the ALBUS container.
RIFRM allows you to redo the table adjustments without the
cost of running ALBUS over again.
Adverbs:
INNAME......Input name of image(name). Standard defaults.
INCLASS.....Input name of image(class). Standard defaults.
INSEQ.......Input name of image(seq. #). 0 => highest.
INDISK......Disk drive # of image. 0 => any.
SOURCES.....Source names to handle. Only sources contained in
text file will be handled if the text file is of the
multi-source format. If it is of a single source
format (ALBUS DOALL<=0) and ASDMFILE ends in an
underscore then multiple text files will be read,
appending the source name to the ASDMFILE value.
GAINVER.....Input CL table version #. 0 -> highest
GAINUSE.....Output CL table version #. 0 -> new one
If GAINUSE > 0, it must be = GAINVER or specify a
new file. If GAINUSE=GAINVER and ALBUS is selected
then the highest numbered TE file will be updated.
If GAINUSE > GAINVER (after defaults), then a new
TE file will be created.
ASDMFILE....Text file name in form ENVNAME:FILENAME where ENVNAME
if an environment variable pointing at the directory
containing the file and FILENAME is the file name.
The name is constructed by appending ASDMF(2) after
the last non-blank character of ASDMF(1). Example
ASDMF(1)='MYALB:05SEP241154/albus_report_parallel
ASDMF(2)='_RI_G03_Allsource
Note that both statements have no close quote to
preserve lower case letters.
When there are multiple ALBUS report files for
multiple sources (i.e. when DOALL <= 0 in ALBUS),
leave off the source name in ASDMFILE so that it
ends with an underscore character. Thus
ASDMF(1)='MYALB:05SEP241154/albus_report_parallel
ASDMF(2)='_RI_G03_
ANTENNAS....List desired antennas when VLBA. The antenna number
will be appended to the name (_nn) set in ASDMFILE.
