D.1. BATBINEVT 103
(Note that EBOUNDS extension from infile is used to generate energy bin edges.)
19. Accumulate total mask weighted spectrum with user-designed bins
batbinevt infile.dph outfile.pha PHA 0 gti infile.dph maskwt=maskwt.img
20. Accumulate raw light curve from DPH (no mask weighting)
batbinevt infile.dph outfile.lc LC 0 infile 14.0-194.9 weighted=no
21. Accumulate raw spectrum from DPH (no mask weighting)
batbinevt infile.dph outfile.pha PHA 0 uniform infile.dph weighted=no
MAKING DPHs and DPIs from EVENT DATA
22. Make total DPH from event data
batbinevt infile.evt outfile.dph DPH 0 uniform myebounds.fits
(myebounds.fits should contain the desired energy binning. A time bin size of 0 indicates that
the total DPH should be constructed.)
23. Make total DPI from event data (15-195 keV)
batbinevt infile.evt outfile.dpi DPI 0 uniform 15-195
24. Make many DPIs from event data (100 second binning)
batbinevt infile.evt outfile.dpi DPI 100 uniform 15-195
(Output file is stored as one DPI per image extension.) One can also use:
batbinevt infile.evt outfile.dpi DPITAB 100 uniform 15-195
(which will put many DPIs into one extension as a table.)
25. Making DPHs from event data is accomplished with this command
batbinevt infile.evt outfile.dph DPH 0 uniform myebounds.fits
(making more than one or two DPHs in this way is not recommended, since it requires a large
amount of computer memory).
