arfgen (arfgen-1.106) [22.0.0-9173c7d25-20250127]

Example 3: Point source with explicit position

Here is another example with an explicit source position – (1000,-1000) in DET coordinates – specified:

arfgen spectrumset=spectrum.pha
withsourcepos=true sourcecoords=det sourcex=1000 sourcey=-1000

See also 5.4 for details of why the task needs the source position, and how to change it.
