Parameters

This section documents the parameters recognized by this task (if any).

Parameter	Mand	Type	Default	Constraints
elowlist	no	int	350	$0<=elowlist<=11999$
Lower energy limits for the energy band in eV
ehighlist	no	int	750	$1<=ehighlist<=12000$
Uper energy limits for the energy band in eV
withpartbkg	no	bool	no	T/F
Particle background control, "yes" to subtract the model QPB particle background image.
withspbkg	no	bool	no	T/F
Soft proton background control, "yes" to subtract the soft proton background image.
withswcxbkg	no	bool	no	T/F
Solar wind charge exchange background control, "yes" to subtract the swcx background image.
withmask	no	bool	no	T/F
Apply an additional mask.
mask	no	dataset	mask.fit
Additional mask image file name.
withbinning	no	bool	yes	T/F
Apply binning?
binfactor	no	int	2	$1<=binfactor<=64$
Binning factor (suggested: 1, 2, or 4)
withsmoothing	no	bool	no	T/F
Apply smoothing?
smoothingcounts	no	int	50	$1<=smoothingcounts<=100$
Number of counts to accumulate for smoothing.
maskthresh	no	real	0.02	$0.001<=maskthresh<=1.$
The scale factor for excluding regions from the smoothing based on a mask image. In the default mode the average exposure is calculated and then any pixel with exposure less than fraction*average value is excluded.
fill	no	int	no
Number of passes to fill in empty pixels.
