imagerpositiontest.make_default_cl - Function



Package synthesis
Module synthesistester
Tool imagerpositiontest


Make the default simulated component list.


Synopsis
make_default_cl(clname, frequency, epoch, nsources, phasecenter, fluxmin, fluxmax, minsep)


Description
Make the default simulated component list. It's usually a good idea just to let dotests() do this, but if you want some more rope, here it is....



Arguments

clname The name of the componentlist table that will be written to disk
Allowed: String (any valid file name)
Default: 'dummy.cl'
frequency The reference frequency of the component list
Allowed: String (frequency expressed as a quantity)
Default: unset (will use the user-specified frequency from set_sim_parms() or the tool's default frequency)
epoch The epoch of the positions
Allowed: String (any recognized epoch)
Default: 'J2000'
nsources The number of components to create
Allowed: Integer > 0
Default: 4
phasecenter The phasecenter
Allowed: Direction
Default: unset (uses the user specified phase center from set_sim_parms() or the tool's default phase center
fluxmin The minimum flux a component can have in Jy
Allowed: Float > 0
Default: 3
fluxmax The maximum flux a component can have in Jy
Allowed: Float => minflux
Default: 10
minsep The minimum separation between components in arcsec
Allowed: Float => 0
Default: 5


Returns
T or fail


Example
- include 'imagerpositiontest.g';
- ipt := imagerpositiontest();
- ipt.make_default_cl();
T
