csmodelinfo

Dumps information about a model container into log file or on screen.

Synopsis

This script provides detailled information about a given model container. It presents the number of parameters, the number of free parameters (sub- divided by spectral, spatial and temporal type). The tool further creates information about any parameter that is stuck at the parameter boundaries. This might be quite useful for debugging a fit. Finally the tool also list the TS values of each source that was fitted, in order have a quick overview on these quantities on the screen.

In addition the tool is also capable of exporting the input model XML container to a region file which is compatible to be read with ds9 or other displying tools. To create a region file, the hidden parameter “ds9file” needs to be specified. There are quite a few further hidden parameters to steer e.g. color, font, etc of the region file output.

General parameters

inmodel [file]
Event list, counts cube, or observation definition file
(ds9file = NONE) [file]
Output DS9 region file containing models
(pnt_type=cross) <circle|box|diamond|cross|x|arrow|boxcircle> [string]
Marker type for point sources
pnt_mark_size [integer]
Marker size for point sources
(show_labels=yes) [boolean]
Add source labels?
(width=2) [integer]
Line width for regions
(font=helvetica) <helvetica|times|courier> [string]
Font for source labels
(fontsize=12) [integer]
Font size for source labels
(fonttype=normal) <normal|bold> [string]
Use normal or bold font?
(fonttype2=roman) <roman|italic> [string]
Use roman or italic font?
(show_ext_type=yes) [boolean]
Show type of extended model in source name?
(free_color=green) [string]
Color for sources with free parameters (any ds9 color or hex code)
(fixed_color=magenta) [string]
Color for sources without free parameters (any ds9 color or hex code)

Standard parameters

(chatter = 2) [integer]
Verbosity of the executable:

chatter = 0: no information will be logged

chatter = 1: only errors will be logged

chatter = 2: errors and actions will be logged

chatter = 3: report about the task execution
