| | CookBook for AAOmega data reduction with 2dfdr
AAOmega data is processed using a revised version of the 2dfdr software package. 2dfdr currently has modes which reduce data for a number of instruments, 2dF, AAOmega with the 2df and Spiral IFU top ends, 6dF and FMOS. In upgrading the software to work with AAOmega data a number of fundamental changes to the software have been required. At this time, the full 2dfdr manual |

It is possible to reduce individual files that do not conform to the naming convention. They can be loaded into the system using the Reduce item in the Commands menu. However such files cannot form part of the automatic reduction of a sequence of files, unless they are renamed to conform to the other files in the sequence. |

< | This Setup Automatic Reduction window is asking for the root name which prefixes the data to be reduced. In this example the prefix is 28jun2 which indicates the software has found data taken on June 28th and for ccd2, the red arm. If one wants to reduce data from the blue and red arms in the same directory then the root name can be altered to 28jun1 to pick up ccd1 data. Note that a Tcl bug requires that the user enter the new root name BUT DOES NOT HIT ENTER. You must click on Ok. Hitting Enter on the keyboard will set the root name to the default the window started with and NOT the value that you just entered. Steps are being taken to deal with this infuriating issue. |
