• create the database:

dbadmin project alala ipp isp pxadmin -create -dbname isp

• inject the files into the new database

foreach dir (oi*)

ipp_serial_inject.pl $dir/*.fits --workdir path://ISP/$dir --dbname isp echo $dir

end

• register the images (in pantasks)

module pantasks.pro module.tasks warp.off stack.off diff.off init.cluster -- note that you should define a macro to set up your machines add.database isp

• inject the files into the new database

foreach dir (oi*)

ipp_serial_inject.pl $dir/*.fits --workdir path://ISP/$dir --dbname isp echo $dir

end

• build the bias frame

dettool -pretend -simple -definebyquery -inst ISP-Apogee -det_type bias -select_exp_type bias -dbname isp -workdir path://ISP/detrend/bias -select_dateobs_begin 2007-01-13T00:00:00

• build the dark frames. Note that the dark is sensitive to the ccd temperature. For ISP, a single dark scales well for a giving temperature range. It is also a good idea to avoid the exposure with exptime < about 1sec.

dettool -pretend -simple -definebyquery -inst ISP-Apogee -det_type dark -select_exp_type dark -dbname isp -workdir path://ISP/detrend/dark -select_exp_time_min 0.5 -select_ccd_temp_min -27.5 -select_ccd_temp_max -24.0 -ccd_temp_min -27.5 -ccd_temp_max -24.0
