This tool is designed to calibrate a standard PdB project. The name of
the hpb (header) file must be specified in the Standard Calibration widget (Fig. ) to start. A
limited scan range can be selected to perform a complete or partial
calibration. By default all the scans are considered. The receiver
band used in the observations is determined by clicking on Select.
The calibration must be done by clicking on the proposed steps from
left to right. Select is so needed at first, and also before
repeating any part of the calibration.
The last option Print combines all the postscript files created
of each calibration step in a single file called
`date'-`projectname'.ps. This package is an interactive tool which
pauses for an input from the astronomer. It is not recommended
therefore to click on the GO (see Sect. ).
The option Use previous settings (in the widget; Fig. ) permits to adopt settings coming from a previous
calibration of the selected hpb file, with respect to the
atmospheric phase correction, scan ranges, selected bandpass
calibrator, etc.
Finally, note that all the plots created within the Standard
Calibration are presented for logical antennas, which are sometimes
different from the physical ones shown in the First Look outputs
(see Sect. and App.
).
