newsimulator.setoptions - Function



Package synthesis
Module newsimulator
Tool newsimulator


Set various processing options


Synopsis
setoptions(ftmachine, cache, tile, gridfunction, location, padding, facets, maxdata)


Description

For most of these, set the options for predict details. See also imager help for more details.

To simulate single dish data, use gridft=SD and gridfunction=PB.



Arguments

ftmachine Fourier transform machine
Allowed: String: 'gridft'|'SD'
Default: 'gridft'
cache Size of gridding cache in complex pixels
Allowed: Int
Default: 0
tile Size of a gridding tile in pixels (in 1 dimension)
Allowed: Int
Default: 16
gridfunction Gridding function
Allowed: String: 'SF'|'BOX'|'PB'
Default: 'SF'
location Location used in phase rotations
Allowed: position measure
padding Padding factor in image plane (>=1.0)
Allowed: Float
Default: 1.3
facets Number of facets
Allowed: Int
Default: 1
maxdata Maximum data to write to a single TSM file (MB)
Allowed: Double
Default: 2000


Returns
Bool


Example
mysim.setoptions(cache=10000000, tile=32, 
gridfunction='BOX', dm.location('vla'))
