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. cd_align_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. cd_align_ech_blue_0000.fits.png plot 1:cut in cross-dispersion through zeroth order of the two RAW files (black - first frame, red second frame) plot 2:central intensity from results of gaussian fits to the cross-dispersion profiles at each point sampled along the zeroth order (black - first frame, red second frame) plot 3:differences between the centers of the gaussian fits to the cross-dispersion profiles of the two frames at each point sampled along the zeroth order (black - first frame, red second frame) plot 4:the centers of the gaussian fits to the cross-dispersion profiles of the two frames at each point sampled along the zeroth order (black - first frame, red second frame) cd_align_ech_blue_0000.fits_1.ima.png full display of first raw frame with locations of centers of fitted guassians indicated by small squares cd_align_ech_blue_0000.fits_2.ima.png full display of second raw frame with locations of centers of fitted guassians indicated by small squares QC1PARAM QC1 parameters written into QC1 table: QC1db names: ydiffavg | ydiffrms FITS key names: QC.YDIFFAVG | QC.YDIFFRMS QC1 params created by pipeline: ydiffavg | ydiffrms QC1 params created by this procedure: None ALGORITHM Description of algorithms: Algorithms for pipeline created keywords are (in principal) described in the pipeline user's manual ydiffavg: average y difference of zero orders, product keyword QC.YDIFFAVG Description: Average order position shift. We monitor the Cross Disperser position reproducibility ydiffrms: rms of y difference, product keyword QC.YDIFFRMS Description: RMS order position shift. We monitor the Cross Disperser position reproducibility CERTIF Technical calibrations, never rejected (apart from trivial reasons such as no light, saturation, not two frames...)
