Parameters

This section documents the parameters recognized by this task (if any).

Parameter	Mand	Type	Default	Constraints
thresholdmasking	yes	real	0.02
The scale factor for excluding regions from the smoothing based on a mask image. In the default mode the average exposure is calculated and then any pixel with exposure less than fraction*average value is excluded.
detector	yes	int
Detector selection, 0: combined exposures, 1: MOS, 2: PN.
prefix	yes	string	1S001
Prefix defining the exposure used, with the esas nomenclature, eg. S003 means PN S003 exposure, while 1S002 and 2S003 mean MOS1 S002 and MOS2 S003 exposures, respectively.
elow	yes	int	400
Low energy for band in eV
ehigh	yes	int	1250
High energy for band in eV
binning	yes	int	1
Binning control with 1 for no binning, other integers for binning.
withpartcontrol	yes	bool	yes
Particle background control, "yes" to subtract the model particle background image.
withsoftcontrol	yes	bool	no
Soft proton background control, "yes" to subtract the soft proton background image.
withswcxcontrol	yes	bool	no
Solar wind charge exchange background control, "yes" to subtract the SWCX background image.
withmaskcontrol	yes	bool	no
Solar wind charge exchange background control, "yes" to subtract the SWCX background image.
mask	yes	dataset	mask.fit
Mask image file name (defaults to using exposure mask).
clobber	no	boolean	yes	T/F
Clobber existing files?
