Filling DCR Data

Prior to accessing any GBT data with AIPS++ analysis tools, the data must first be converted from the native FITS files written by the GBT Monitor and Control system into an AIPS++ Measurement Set. The gbtmsfiller application is used to do this conversion. To run the filler, first issue the following UNIX command from the bash shell:

. /home/aips++/stable/aipsinit.sh

or the following command, if using csh:

source /home/aips++/stable/aipsinit.csh

The filler can then be run as follows:

gbtmsfiller project=/home/gbtdata/pnt_prime_01 backend=DCR minscan=1 maxscan=2

Other options are available in the gbtmsfiller application. The program will prompt for inputs if it is run as follows:

gbtmsfiller help=prompt

For complete documentation on the gbtmsfiller, see the User Reference Manual.
