NAME

       fors_bias - Compute the master bias frame

SYNOPSIS

       esorex fors_bias [OPTIONS] FILE.sof

DESCRIPTION

       This  recipe  is  used  to  combine  input  raw  BIAS frames into a master bias frame. The
       overscan regions, if present, are removed from the result.

       Input files:

         DO category:               Type:       Explanation:         Required:
         BIAS                       Raw         Bias frame              Y

       Output files:

         DO category:               Data type:  Explanation:
         MASTER_BIAS                FITS image  Master bias frame

OPTIONS

       --stack_method <str>
              Frames combination method (str; default: ´minmax´). The full name  of  this  option
              for  the  EsoRex  configuration  file  is  fors.fors_bias.stack_method  [default  =
              minmax].

       --minrejection <int>
              Number of lowest values to be rejected (int; default: 1). The  full  name  of  this
              option  for the EsoRex configuration file is fors.fors_bias.minrejection [default =
              1].

       --maxrejection <int>
              Number of highest values to be rejected (int; default: 1). The full  name  of  this
              option  for the EsoRex configuration file is fors.fors_bias.maxrejection [default =
              1].

       --klow <float>
              Low threshold in ksigma method (float; default: 3.0). The full name of this  option
              for the EsoRex configuration file is fors.fors_bias.klow [default = 3.0].

       --khigh <float>
              High threshold in ksigma method (float; default: 3.0). The full name of this option
              for the EsoRex configuration file is fors.fors_bias.khigh [default = 3.0].

       --kiter <int>
              Max number of iterations in ksigma method (int; default: 999).  The  full  name  of
              this  option  for  the EsoRex configuration file is fors.fors_bias.kiter [default =
              999].

       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.
