Subject: header for new chip STA2
Frank,
Here is a fits fileÂ
Here is what I get  when I do a ccdlist
kp100320_085.fits[1352,2000][real][none][]:Landolt  PG1657+078

Hi Beatrice,
The instrument is considered engineering by KPNO and so the headers have not been finalized. Â However, what you need is simple. Â First of all, the reference is "cl> phelp instruments". Â The beginnings of the file you need is
cl> type STA2.dat
imagetyp        imgtype
subset          filtname
Since I only have the one example of the IMGTYPE keyword I don't know if the IMGTYPE values need translations. Â The example you sent uses the same value as expected by CCDPROC (object) so no translation is needed. Â However, if you find that zeros and flats are not recognized then you would add lines like:
dflat flat
bias zero
The first column is the string you see in the header and the second is the type for CCDPROC. Â If the first column has spaces then you need to quote them. Â Again see the help page for "instruments".
Place the file in an appropriate directly. Â Let us say it is where you login to IRAF; i.e. home$. Â Then you would
cl> epar ccdred
[Set the instrument parameter to "home$STA2.dat"
The you can do something like:
cl> ccdlist *fits
kp100320_085.fits[1352,2000][real][object][R]:Landolt  PG1657+078
cl> ccdlist *fits l+
kp100320_085.fits[1352,2000][real][object][R]:Landolt  PG1657+078
   exposure=30 darktime=30
   [TO BE DONE] Bad pixel file is foo.pl
   [TO BE DONE] Overscan strip is [1305:1349,1:2000]
   [TO BE DONE] Trim image section is [1:1300,1:2000]
   [TO BE DONE] Zero level correction
   [TO BE DONE] Flat field correction
This will show that the exposure type, filter, exposure time, and bias sections are recognized.
