SCUNOISE

Display SCUBA noise data

Description:

Scunoise can read in a directory of noise summaries (the .dat files produced by the real-time system) and plot them. A date must be supplied so that SCUNOISE can pick up the correct file associated with a given run number. Once the noise data are displayed the pointer can be moved over a point to determine the associated bolometer name. Double on the window will bring up a diagram of the array with all bolometers above the specified noise level (specified by the position of the pointer for the double click) highlighted in a different colour.

Usage:

scunoise [-h | -v | -d] [obsdate] [runnr]

Parameters:

h
Return a help message only.
v
Return the version number of scunoise
d
Switch on debug output
obsdate
Observation directory/date (e.g. 19980210)
runnr
SCUBA observation number of noise measurement.

Examples:

scunoise
Prompt for date and run number
scunoise 19980210 5
Display the noise data for observation 5 on 19980210
scunoise 19980315
Prompt user for observation number, using data from 19980315.

Notes:

SCUNOISE has been developed for use at the JAC and therefore knows where to find the archived data. The current directory and $DATADIR are searched for files when the program is run outside of JAC.
