The start and stop times as well as the new time bin size are
given in seconds. The start time is specified with respect to the
start time used in the program sortac (see section 2.4) and the default stop time is
the total duration of the input data cube.
-
Sum detector identification. The program sortac can
compress the detector idents during the sorting of the data (see section 2.4); therefore it is
comparatively rare to need to perform this task.
Consider the case of a MPC2 dataset. It has the following raw
detector channels:
qcl>hds_node=gx339_88a.cube
qcl>list id_mask
id_mask(2) _CHAR*16
1111111100000000
0000000011111111
qcl>
Both idents contain a mixture of data from the top- and
mid-layers, so there is normally no purpose in keeping them
separate. Indeed, the universal background subtraction method
described earlier will not work if they are (see section 3.4). The following use of
hyper will compress the cube to a single detector channel.

Detector combinations can be expressed as 1,2 or 1-2 in response
to the parameter HYP_COMB001. In addition, the responses EVEN*8 and
ODD*8 can be specified; these translate to 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16 (or the
top-layer) and 1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15 (or the mid-layer) respectively.
