HELP SECTION
DOSCALE
Type: Adverb (logical, > 0 => true)
Use: Tells a task to perform some operation involved with scaling
the data.
Null value: false (-1).
Tasks:
BLCHN........Compute closure offset corrections on a channel-by-channel
basis. DOSCALE controls the application of spectral index
parameters.
BPASS........Computes spectral bandpass correction table. DOSCALE
controls the application of spectral index parameters.
CLIP.........Edits data based on amplitudes, phases, and weights out
of range. DOSCALE specifies that the data be
normalized by the fluxes (and spectral index) to be
found in the source table.
CPASS........Computes polynomial spectral bandpass correction table.
DOSCALE controls the application of spectral index
parameters.
PCAL.........Determines instrumental polarization for UV data.
DOSCALE controls the application of spectral index
parameters.
RFLAG........Flags data set based on time and freq rms in fringe
visibilities. DOSCALE specifies the determination of
separate baseline/IF amplitude gains to be applied to
the data prior to plotting and flagging.
SYPRT........Prints values from the SY table. DOSCALE > 0 tells
the task to scale each antenna separately.
TYSMO........Smooths and filters a calibration TY or SY table.
DOSCALE controls the normalization of the smoothed
table values (> 0 -> normalize).
UVFND........Prints selected data from UV data set to search for
problems, DOSCALE controls whether fluxes are
scaled by SU table values and spectral index before
comparison to "clip" levels.
UVPLT........Plots data from a UV data base in multiple ways.
DOSCALE contrtols whether visibilities are scaled
by SU table fluxes and spectral index before plotting.
