This plot

This is the trending report for the UVES QC parameters derived from BIAS frames.
These plots describe:

  1. the the collapsed structure in X direction of the BLUE chip in the 1x1 binning, 225kHz, low gain readout mode
  2. the the collapsed structure in X direction of the LOWER RED chip in the 1x1 binning, 225kHz, low gain readout mode
  3. the the collapsed structure in X direction of the UPPER RED chip in the 1x1 binning, 225kHz, low gain readout mode
  4. the the collapsed structure in X direction of the BLUE chip in the 2x2 binning, 50kHz, high gain readout mode
  5. the the collapsed structure in X direction of the LOWER RED chip in the 2x2 binning, 50kHz, high gain readout mode
  6. the the collapsed structure in X direction of the UPPER RED chip in the 2x2 binning, 50kHz, high gain readout mode

Other QC parameters related to detector properties (like linearity, gain) are trended here.
 
General information

Click on any of the plots to see a close-up version.

If applicable, the latest values from Paranal ops logs are plotted as blue dots. More information about those values, including a download option, is available in the OPS column.

The latest date is indicated on top of the plot, data points belonging to that date are specially marked.

If configured,

  • statistical averages are indicated by a solid line, and thresholds by broken lines
  • outliers are marked by a red asterisk. They are defined as data points outside the threshold lines
  • "aliens" (= data points outside the plot Y limits) are marked by a red arrow (↑ or ↓)
  • you can download the data for each parameter set if the 'Data downloads' link shows up
