The gmos package has undergone many changes to ensure compatibility with 6-amp data from the new CCDs, including improved gain values and the addition of new BPMs, while maintaining complete backward compatibility with all data taken using the old GMOS CCDs. Please note that for the new CCDs, only data taken in slow read, low gain mode is supported. For other modes, please contact the GMOS team. Full support for the other modes will be included in a future release. In addition, this patch includes a number of minor bug fixes recently found in the GEMTOOLS, GMOS, GNIRS and NIRI packages. The most notable fixes are included below: - Improved variance and data quality propagation in gmos.gftransform - Addition of variance and data quality propagation gmos.gnsskysub and gmos.gnscombine - Improved log message in gmos.gstransform to describe how to proceed when using arcs with a different ROI to the science spectrum - Upgrades to a number of tasks in the GEMTOOLS and GNIRS packages that allow the database parameter to be defined with a trailing slash - Corrected gnirs.nsreduce so that nsappwave actually gets called if the data had been previously cut - Inclusion of an improved BPM for GNIRS North - Fixed typos in gmos.gmosexamples, gnirs.gnirsexamples and niri.niriexamples Please see the appropriate help file for more information about the specific parameter changes listed below. gemtools.ckcal: - New default value: database = "" (from "database/") gmos.ggdbhelper: - New parameter: logfile gmos.gnscombine: - New parameter: sci_ext var_ext dq_ext mdf_ext fl_vardq status gmos.gnsskysub: - New parameters: sci_ext var_ext dq_ext mdf_ext fl_vardq gmos.gtile: - New parameters: fl_pad padvalue chipgap gnirs.nsprepare: - New default value: bpm = "gnirs$data/gnirsn_2011apr07_bpm.fits" INSTALLATION: [1] Unzip the file gemini_v111_patch1.tar.gz % gunzip gemini_v111_patch1.tar.gz [2] Log into IRAF as the IRAF user and unpack the archive file. Change directories to the Gemini root directory and use "rtar" cl> cd gemini cl> softools so> rtar -xrf /gemini_v111_patch1.tar where is the relative path from the Gemini root directory to the downloaded file. It is possible to also unpack the file gemini_v111_patch1.tar from UNIX % cd /iraf/extern/gemini % tar xvf /gemini_v111_patch1.tar [3] It is recommended that users initialize their uparm directories cl> cd uparm$ cl> delete g*.par [4] Please use the Gemini HelpDesk for submitting questions http://www.gemini.edu/sciops/helpdesk/helpdeskIndex.html
