Swift/MIS CalDB 20050805 Release Notes ====================================== Update 2005-08-05 *) bcf/clock/swclockcor20041120v002.fits The clock correction file used by 'swifttime' and 'barycorr' has been changed to FITS format and is now stored in CALDB. With the Swift software release 2.1 (Heasoft 6.0.2), the default behavior of both tools has been modified to retrieve the FITS version of the clock correction file from the CALDB. The old ascii formatted file 'swco.dat' circulated up to now is still supported however new clock correction updates will be added only to the FITS version of the file. The FITS correction file will be updated quickly on about a bi-weekly schedule, it is recommended to users to always check out from CALDB the latest version of the file or set CALDB with the remote access. The latest version version of the file is at ftp://legacy.gsfc.nasa.gov/caldb/data/swift/mis/bcf/clock/ named as swclockcor20041120vNNN.fits where NNN is the version number. Use always the higher version
