General parameters

(dbase = $COMDATA/dbase/dbase.fits) [file]

outobs [file]

Output observation definition XML file.

pntselect <CIRCLE|BOX> [string]

Pointing selection region shape. This may either be a CIRCLE or a BOX. Only observations with pointing directions falling into the circle or box are selected.

coordsys <CEL|GAL> [string]

Coordinate system for the pointing selection region centre (CEL - celestial, GAL - galactic).

ra [real]

If coordsys=CEL: Right Ascension of pointing selection region centre (J2000, in deg).

dec [real]

If coordsys=CEL: Declination of pointing selection region centre (J2000, in deg).

glon [real]

If coordsys=GAL: Galactic longitude of pointing selection region centre (deg).

glat [real]

If coordsys=GAL: Galactic latitude of pointing selection region centre (deg).

rad [real]

If pntselect=CIRCLE: Radius of pointing selection region circle (deg).

width [real]

If pntselect=BOX: Width of pointing selection region box (deg).

height [real]

If pntselect=BOX: Height of pointing selection region box (deg).

tmin [time]

Start time for observation selection. Set to NONE if no temporal selection should be applied.

tmax [time]

Stop time for observation selection. Set to NONE if no temporal selection should be applied.

instmode <ALL|STD|SOLAR80> [string]

COMPTEL instrument mode. This may be either ALL to select all instrument modes, STD for the standard mode and SOLAR80 for the mode choosen for the late mission with increased energy thresholds.

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

chatter = 4: detailed report about the task execution

(clobber = yes) [boolean]

Specifies whether an existing energy boundaries output file should be overwritten.

(debug = no) [boolean]

Enables debug mode. In debug mode the executable will dump any log file output to the console.

(mode = ql) [string]

Mode of automatic parameters (default is ql, i.e. “query and learn”).
