SYNOPSIS

esorex kmo_fits_stack [OPTIONS] FILE.sof

DESCRIPTION

     #############################################
     ### INTENDED FOR PIPELINE DEVELOPERS ONLY ###
     #############################################

FITS files to be processed by the KMOS pipeline have to meet certain condi- tions. This recipe is intended to provide to the user a simple way to test the pipeline with own data, which wasn't produced by KMOS itself.

The input set of frame is checked for integrity (do all the frames have the same size, do they correspond to the desired output type, is there the correct number of files). Then an empty main header is written with desired keywords.

A keyword consists of the name, data type and value.

Additional keywords can be added either to the empty primary header or to all sub headers.

BASIC PARAMETERS

--type Depending on the type of the FITS file to create different combinations of frames have to be provided:
   * RAW
     exactly 3 files tagged as STACK_DATA
   * F2D
     exactly 3 files tagged as STACK_DATA or
     exactly 6 files tagged alternating as STACK_DATA and STACK_NOISE
     (beginning with DATA)
   * B2D
     exactly 3 files tagged as STACK_BADPIX
   * F1I, F2I, F3I
     as many DATA frames as wanted (at least one) or
     as many DATA and NOISE frames as wanted (at least one of each, the number
     of STACK_DATA frames has to match the one of STACK_NOISE frames)
   * F1S
     exactly 1 file tagged as STACK_DATA
   * F1L
     exactly 1 file tagged as STACK_DATA (either plain text or binary fits
     table)
   * F2L
     exactly 1 file tagged as STACK_DATA (either plain text or binary fits)
     table)

--mainkey --subkey Additional keywords can be added either to the empty primary header or to all sub headers. Provided keywords must have following form:
   "keyword;type;value;keyword;type;value" (no spaces inbetween!) Allowed values for type are: string, int, float, double, bool

--valid With the –valid parameter one can specifiy which values should be handled as invalid by the pipeline. The keyword ESO OCS ARMi NOTUSED will be set accor- dingly. When it is set to "none" nothing will be added.
