NAME

       sinfo_utl_cube_create - Generate a cube

SYNOPSIS

       esorex sinfo_utl_cube_create [OPTIONS] FILE.sof

DESCRIPTION

       This recipe perform cubes creation.

       The  input files are: A raw frame on tagged as RAW_ON [optional] A raw frame off RAW_OFF A
       wavelength map, tagged as WAVE_MAP A wavelength  map,  tagged  as  WAVE_MAP  A  distortion
       table, tagged as DISTORTION A slitlets position table, tagged as SLIT_POS

OPTIONS

       --objnod-jit_ind <bool>
              jitter  mode  indicator: TRUE: Auto-Jitter, FALSE: user defined jitter.  The size_x
              size_y kernel_type parameters are only used if jitterInd is set to yes, that  means
              in auto-jittering mode. (bool; default: True). The full name of this option for the
              EsoRex configuration file is sinfoni.objnod.jitter_index [default = True].

       --objnod-kernel_typ <str>
              Kernel Type:the name of the interpolation kernel to shift the single cubes  to  the
              correct  places  inside the big combined cube (str; default: ´tanh´). The full name
              of this option for the  EsoRex  configuration  file  is  sinfoni.objnod.kernel_type
              [default = tanh].

       --objnod-no_coeffs <long>
              number  of  coefficients  for the polynomial interpolation  (long; default: 3). The
              full   name   of   this   option   for   the   EsoRex   configuration    file    is
              sinfoni.objnod.n_coeffs [default = 3].

       --objnod-ns_ind <bool>
              Nord  South  Index  Switch:  indicates if the slitlet distances are determined by a
              north-south-test (TRUE) or slitlet edge fits (FALSE)  (bool;  default:  True).  The
              full    name    of   this   option   for   the   EsoRex   configuration   file   is
              sinfoni.objnod.nord_south_index [default = True].

       --objnod-flux_cor <bool>
              Flux correction:  (bool; default: False). The full name  of  this  option  for  the
              EsoRex configuration file is sinfoni.objnod.flux_cor [default = False].

       --objnod-fine_tune_mtd <str>
              Fine  Tuning  Method:  indicator  for  the  shifting  method  to use (P: polynomial
              interpolation,  S: cubic spline interpolation) (str; default: ´P´). The  full  name
              of     this     option     for     the     EsoRex     configuration     file     is
              sinfoni.objnod.fine_tuning_method [default = P].

       --objnod-order <long>
              Fine  Tuning  polynomial  order:  order  of  the  polynomial  if   the   polynomial
              interpolation  shifting  method  is used. (long; default: 2). The full name of this
              option for the EsoRex configuration file is sinfoni.objnod.order [default = 2].

       Note that it is possible to create a configuration file containing  these  options,  along
       with  suitable default values. Please refer to the details provided by the 'esorex --help'
       command.
