QC1 plot(s) and/or display(s) are generated, and later reviewed within certifyProducts. The generated plots stored in $DFO_PLT_DIR/$DATE with the name r.<DPid>_tpl_0000.fits.png where <DPid> is the Data Product Identification of the first frame of the template.

Created together with the reference montage (see below) within the uves.MeasureQuality script. Can be recreated manually by calling the script uves.makeQCreportMontage -a <AB>, see uves.makeQCreportMontage -h for more details. orderdef_ech_blue.montage.ref.png A montage image made up from the individual QC reports of the reference AB located by the script uves.getRefAB. During certification, the two montage images are blinked to facilitate identification of unusual features. This reference montage created at the same time as the AB montage (see above).The montage of the reference AB is easily identified during the blinking as the one with the grey background. orderdef_ech_blue_0000.fits.png From left to right, top to bottom: plot 1:trace across the central row of the RAW frame plot 2:trace across the central column of the RAW frame plot 3:Residuals in X (i.e. along the order, dispersion direction) of the fitted positions of the order with respect to the expected positions of the physical model plot 4:Representation of the order positions in X-Y pixel space. plot 5:Residuals in Y (i.e. across the order, cross-dispersion direction) of the fitted positions of the order with respect to the expected positions of the physical model orderdef_ech_blue_0000.fits_1.ima.png MIDAS display of the RAW frame with the located and traced orders indicated by squares (in this view the squares are relatively large and close together giving the impression of continuous lines). Each order is traced at regular steps along the order, each step is inducated by a square. orderdef_ech_blue_0000.fits_2.ima.png Same as previous but closeup of central region with each step indicated by a (rather) small cross and joined by a line.

This number give a more detailed information on the overal order detection (respect to QC NPRED and QC NALL) npos_sel: number of positions selected, product keyword QC.ORD.NPOSSEL Description: we check in order def step if the geometrical spectral format predicted from the physical model match the actual detected spectral format (which may contain less orders due to unsufficient detector illumination). This number give a more detailed information on the overal order detection (respect to QC NPRED and QC NALL) CERTIF No light or low light level (meaning too few orders can be found) Saturation (meaning too few orders can be found) Failure to find expected orders COMMENTS top [2015-10-30T08:20:49]         created by qcDocu v1.1.2, a tqs tool
