OPTIONS

--oscan <bool>

Apply Overscan Correction (bool; default: True). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_dark.oscan [default = True].

--pos_bad_pix_rej <float>

The positive rejection threshold for bad pixels (float; default: 50.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_dark.pos_bad_pix_rej [default = 50.0].

--neg_bad_pix_rej <float>

The negative rejection threshold for bad pixels (float; default: 50.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_dark.neg_bad_pix_rej [default = 50.0].

--file_extension <bool>

Controls if EXPTIME should be appended to product filenames (bool; default: False). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_dark.file_extension [default = False].

--cmethod <str>

Apply "average", "median", "sum", "min_max." or "ksigma". (str; default: 'ksigma'). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_dark.cmethod [default = ksigma].

--cpos_rej <float>

The positive rejection threshold for kappa-sigma-clipping (sigma). (float; default: 3.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_dark.cpos_rej [default = 3.0].

--cneg_rej <float>

The negative rejection threshold for kappa-sigma-clipping (sigma). (float; default: 3.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_dark.cneg_rej [default = 3.0].

--citer <long>

The number of iterations for kappa-sigma-clipping. (long; default: 3). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_dark.citer [default = 3].

--cmax <long>

The number of maximum pixel values to clip with min/max-clipping. (long; default: 1). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_dark.cmax [default = 1].

--cmin <long>

The number of minimum pixel values to clip with min/max-clipping. (long; default: 1). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_dark.cmin [default = 1].

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.
