OPTIONS
--stack_method <str> Method used to build master frame (str; default: ´median´). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is uves_cal_mkmaster.stack_method [default = median]. --klow <float> Kappa used to clip low level values, when method is set to ´mean´ (float; default: 5.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is uves_cal_mkmaster.klow [default = 5.0]. --khigh <float> Kappa used to clip high level values, when method is set to ´mean´ (float; default: 5.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is uves_cal_mkmaster.khigh [default = 5.0]. --niter <long> Number of kappa sigma iterations, when method is set to ´mean´ (long; default: 5). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is uves_cal_mkmaster.niter [default = 5]. --debug <bool> Whether or not to save intermediate results to local directory (bool; default: False). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is uves.debug [default = False]. --plotter <str> Any plots produced by the recipe are redirected to the command specified by this parameter. The plotting command must contain the substring ´gnuplot´ and must be able to parse gnuplot syntax on its standard input. Valid examples of such a command may include ´gnuplot -persist´ and ´cat > mygnuplot$$.gp´. A finer control of the plotting options can be obtained by writing an executable script, e.g. my_gnuplot.pl, that executes gnuplot after setting the desired gnuplot options (e.g. set terminal pslatex color). To turn off plotting, set this parameter to ´no´ (str; default: ´no´). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is uves.plotter [default = no]. --process_chip <str> For RED arm data process the redl, redu, or both chip(s) (str; default: ´both´). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is uves.process_chip [default = both]. --stack_method <str> Method used to build master frame (str; default: ´median´). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is uves_cal_mkmaster.stack_method [default = median]. --klow <float> Kappa used to clip low level values, when method is set to ´mean´ (float; default: 5.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is uves_cal_mkmaster.klow [default = 5.0]. --khigh <float> Kappa used to clip high level values, when method is set to ´mean´ (float; default: 5.0).

The plotting command must contain the substring ´gnuplot´ and must be able to parse gnuplot syntax on its standard input. Valid examples of such a command may include ´gnuplot -persist´ and ´cat > mygnuplot$$.gp´. A finer control of the plotting options can be obtained by writing an executable script, e.g. my_gnuplot.pl, that executes gnuplot after setting the desired gnuplot options (e.g. set terminal pslatex color). To turn off plotting, set this parameter to ´no´ (str; default: ´no´). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is uves.plotter [default = no]. --process_chip <str> For RED arm data process the redl, redu, or both chip(s) (str; default: ´both´).

The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is uves_cal_mkmaster.clean_traps [default = True]. --norm_method <str> Method used to build master frame (str; default: ´explevel´). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is uves_cal_mkmaster.norm_method [default = explevel]. --qc_dark.reg.num_x <long> Number of regions along the X axis (where mean/med/rms are computed). (long; default: 4). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is uves_cal_mkmaster.qc_dark.reg.num_x [default = 4]. --qc_dark.reg.num_y <long> Number of regions along the Y axis(where mean/med/rms are computed). (long; default: 4).

The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is uves_cal_mkmaster.qc_dark.reg.when [default = 0]. --backsub.mmethod <str> Background measuring method. If equal to ´median´ the background is sampled using the median of a subwindow. If ´minimum´, the subwindow minimum value is used. If ´no´, no background subtraction is done. (str; default: ´median´). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is uves_cal_mkmaster.backsub.mmethod [default = median]. --backsub.npoints <long> This is the number of columns in interorder space used to sample the background.

(float; default: -1.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is uves_cal_mkmaster.backsub.smoothy [default = -1.0]. 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.
