from $DFS_PRODUCT/STD/$DATE:
qc_STD -d $DATE -f $primfile
PURPOSE a) generates QC report, b) writes QC1 parameters into local database
PROCINPUT a) $DATE in yyyy-mm-dd,
b) $primfile is the PRO.CATG=COADD_STD product with the _0000.fits extension.
c) raw frames are implicitely read from the AB.
d) Other products MED_COADD_STD, STD_STAR_SPECTRA, MFLAT_AVG, STD_CUBE_SKY are implicitely read.

UL: The mean (collapsed) column (red) and the column at X=2048/4 of the product frame.
UC: Two rows at Y=2048/4 (red) and Y=2048*(3/4) (blue) of the product frame
UR: A parabolic function (blue) is fit to the central part (-3 to 3 counts) of the log of the raw2-raw1 difference frame (red). Histogram of the raw3-raw2 difference frame (green).
LL: Zoom of UC
LC: The Y=500 row of the product minus the Y=500 row of a reference product. Y=600 row of the product minus the Y=600 row of a reference product. X=500 column of the master minus the X=500 column of a reference product. The reference product is renewed usually once a period or after an intervention.
LR: Histogram of the difference frame (second raw minus first raw) (red) and Gaussian fit between -3 and 3 counts (blue). Histogram of the raw3-raw2 difference frame (green)

ALGORITHM Description of algorithms: (status 2006-07-10)
RTC QC parameters : special AO software
FWHM parameters : the post-pipeline scripts applied the ESO-MIDAS command CENTER/IQE to each plane of the final product cube. The wavelength mean MEDIAN value is given.
FRM QC1 parameters : simple statistics on the final product cube
FWHM parameters : Gauss fit integrated into the pipeline; QC1 parameter inventory TBD
CERTIF Tolerated:
- strong persistence in SKY frame
- star in sky frame
- strong skew of spectrum
Rejected:
- low flux
COMMENTS local difference frames (current product minus last one) and reference difference frames (current product minus reference) are provided in the detailed section of certifyProducts
