EDSGCOR (Nov95) ftools.xte EDSGCOR (Nov95) NAME edsgcor -- Converts the PCA/EDS Gain & Offset file from ASCII to FITS format USAGE edsgcor corfil date time DESCRIPTION This task converts the PCA/EDS Gain & Offset file provided by the PCA team from its native ASCII format to FITS format. In addition to the ascii file, the user also inputs the date and time at which the values take effect. The routine writes the appropriate OGIP Calibration Keywords into the header, and also copies into COMMENT keywords the entire header of the input file. The output file is given the name "edsgcor_.fits". This task is intended for the sole use by the XTE SOC and/or PCA team. PARAMETERS corfil [string] The name of the ascii PCA/EDS Gain & Offset file. date (yymmdd) [string] The date on which the values take effect. time (hhmmss) [string] The time at which the values take effect. EXAMPLES 1. edsgcor corfil=edsgain.dat date=960215 time=001234 Create a fits file containing the gain and offset values from the file edsgain.dat. The data take effect at 00:12:34 on Feb 15, 1996. The fits output file will have the name edsgcor_960215.fits NOTES: BUGS EDSGCOR.V1* Please report problems to xtehelp@athena.gsfc.nasa.gov. SEE ALSO PCAGAINSET
