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 <long> Number of lowest values to be rejected (long; default: 1). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is fors.fors_bias.minrejection [default = 1]. --maxrejection <long> Number of highest values to be rejected (long; 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 <long> Max number of iterations in ksigma method (long; 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.
