The GUI of the application in a typical Linux environment is showing bellow.
scan
: query the data in the given range of scan numbers; default 0-9999.- Date: query the data in the given time interval; default the day of the observation.
FITS
: location of the raw FITS file.fit
: output directory for the result of Gaussian profile fitting and quality assessment.DeNoise
: the strength of noise filtering.Channel
: the equation for signal combination from multiple channelsObservation Mode ON/OFF
: whether to communicate withcross_obs
to monitor and update the observation status in real time.Auto Fitting ON/OFF
: whether to perform Gaussian profile fitting to the data automatically or not.Option
: a dialog to set up initial parameters for fittingNext
: fit the next scan manuallyEXIT
: exit the program
