Parameters

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

Parameter	Mand	Type	Default	Constraints
eventset	yes	dataset	rawevents.dat
Name of input EPIC-pn raw event file
set	no	dataset	odfset
input EPIC-pn ODF dataset name (actual or symbolic); see description of task epframes for details
badcolumnset	no	dataset	badcolumns.tab
Name of optional ASCII file containing pairs of $<$ccd nr.$>$ $<$bad column nr.$>$ (one per line), to be omitted from the offset correction
sigma	no	real	4.0
Sigma threshold for offset correction
withnoisehandling	no	boolean	no
enables noise flagging scheme
noiseparameters	no	real	0.98 12 $\times$ 1.0
Noise fraction parameters (cutoff parameter and 12 chip specific correction factors; only for expert use)
withoffsetmap	no	boolean	yes
enables use of offset map to calculate energy shifts
withoffsetlist	no	boolean	no
enables use of list of offset maps to calculate energy shifts
