| Option Name |
Description |
DEFAULT |
| -min_aver |
minimum number of averaged
frames, it is idenfied by header keyword AVERF0, AVERF1, ... , in case
averaging program does not add such keyowrds this option should not be used, as all ast files will be skiped |
0 |
| -skip_dups |
if enabled in case star has
multiple measurements on single frame all are skiped and not loaded to DB. Such situation is mainly due to photometry mistakes which sometimes finds multiple objects on single big star, eventually when we will have better photometry this will not be nessesery, however no it is enabled as such "ghosts" produce bad measurements - point on light curve far from rest of points |
enabled |
| -force_external_camid |
forcing ID of camera to be
filled in DB, default is 0 , means that ID from fits header is used |
FALSE |
| -apert |
index of aperture to be used ,
-1 means average of all apertures is used |
-1 |
| -on_line |
on-line cataloging , waits for
new frames in list file |
FALSE |
| -wait_time |
time of waiting for next frame
in on-line mode |
300 sec |
| -keep_sql |
if keep sql files used for
database loading , removes if FALSE |
FALSE |
| -skip_field_change |
in case of field change frames
one before and one after is skipped |
FALSE |
| -verb |
verbose mode |
FALSE |
| -skip_field |
list of fields to be skiped in
cataloging |
|
| -camid |
provides external camid to be
set |
2 |
| -update_radec |
if update Star.ra,Star.dec when
adding new measurements - maybe usful for planetoid/asteroid search |
FALSE |
| -max_ast_err |
maximum allowed value of
astrometry error , in case ast file has larger it will be skiped |
0.22 |
| -min_alt |
minium altitude above horizont
for star to use measurements, all stars below this limit are skiped |
25 deg |
| -no_update |
if turn off update of stars
during cataloging - when loading many nights it is usful. When loading new portions of data it is also better to have it turned off and make recalculation of updated stars range afterwards |
update is enabled by default |
| -scan |
if this is cataloging of scan,
sets minium number of measurements to add new star to 1 |
|
| -min_points_to_add_new |
minimum number of measurements
to add new star ( in -scan option set to 1 ) |
2 |
| -error_log |
name of error log file |
error.log |
| -doload |
if load stars to database |
FALSE |
| -star_limit |
in case >0 sets maxium number
of stars allowed in ast, otherwise ast is skiped |
70000 |
| -min_smooth_stars |
normalization parameter - minium
number of nearby stars to smooth |
30 |
| -max_smooth_radius |
normalization parameter - maximum radius | 5 |
| -star_log |
name of star log file |
lc.txt |
| -min_mag |
minium magnitude of stars used
in normalization |
5 |
| -max_mag |
maximum magnitude of stars used
in normalization |
10 |
| -show_star |
coordinates of star to be shown,
in format : RA,DEC where RA - decimal hours, DEC - decimal degrees or 10h12m23s,DEC, light curve is written to file specified in option -star_log |
not show |
| -star_match_radius |
radius of matching star to star
existing in catalog - in arcsec |
120 |
| -no_avg_mag |
if use average ( of all
apertures ) magnitudo as final magnitudo |
TRUE |
| -confirm_on_next |
OBSOLATE if
confirmation of new star on next frame is required |
|
| -gen_copy |
generate COPY file for loading |
FALSE maybe should be changed to default TRUE ? |
| -border |
size of border where stars are
not added to catalog, if < 0 no border is ignored (whole image is cataloged ) |
-1 |
| -save_corr_file |
TESTING : if save every
correction image to file |
FALSE |
| -corr_file |
name of correction file to be
used on every frame before normalization |
- |
| -db_log_level |
sets level of sql loging |
0 |
| -sql_log |
name of sql log file |
/opt/pi/dev/pisys/log/pidb_ask.log |
| -stop_on_error |
NOT USED - if stop on error |
FALSE |
| -show_min_dist |
TESTING - if show minimum
distance to star in catalog |
FALSE |
| -n_parts |
OBSOLATE - it was number of
parts to which image was divided for normalization |
40 |
| -alert_log |
OBSOLATE - name of file to which
new stars are saved |
- |
| -list |
if catalog list of ast files ,
list file name is provied as first parameter of the program by default it is disabled - program catalogs single ast file provided as first parameter |
FALSE |
| -norm |
OBSOLATE |
|
| -db |
if use db and catalog to db |
FALSE |
| -image_size |
size of FOV - radius of circle
in which stars are selected in degress |

| -no_cat_corr |
if make normalization to star
catalog |
TRUE |
| -savesql |
MUST NOT BE USED |
|
| -dump_freq |
maximum number of subsequent
frames between dumps to database, if more a lot of memory is needed to keep measurements between dumps |
50 |
| -min_star_count |
minimum number of stars on frame
to be catalogued, otherwise normalization does not work perfectly and causes pseudo-flares and brightenings NOTE : currently this parameter is static , but I will try to do it in such a way that it will be set dynamicaly as 1/2 of average number of stars on given field |
