Who is who in QC?
|
Each QC scientist is responsible
for one or more instruments. E-mails regarding a specific instrument should
be addressed to the QC mailing list. More... |

|
Valid/Not Valid OB information in the nightlog |
The information inserted by the Paranal daytime astronomer
about the validity/non-validity of an OB is evaluated by QC when it comes
to assessing and certifying the pipeline products. More...
|
Grading comments in the nightlog
|
Comments are especially important in the
case of grades different
from 'A', as they allow to check for possible problems with the data.
|
How is nightlog information read by QC? |
QC extracts nightlogs directly from the Paranal database. More...
|
How is nightlog information made available to the PIs? |
Service Mode PIs receive an extracted nightlog. More...
|
OB grading: does QC change OB grades? |
Only exceptionally, in case of quality
problems. More... |
| |
|
|
What can the HC monitor
do?
|
... and what not? More...
|
What if the parameters you need are not in the HC plots? |
In that case you might want to check the QC1
Database, which collects extensive information for
all instruments. More...
|
|
Access to historical
trending information (not just the current behaviour)
|
Historical trending information is available both from the HC monitor (links called "history"), and from the tutorial QC pages ("tutorial").
|
|
There is more than
the HC monitor
|
The QC pages offer a large collection of documentation about raw files, product files, pipeline, trending. All comes per instrument and fairly in the same format.
|
| |
|
|
Reference frames
|
Typical frames for the major instrument modes of each instrument
are available here (click
on the instrument link in the navbar). They allow to check the daytime
calibrations.
|
Access to raw data
|
Access to raw data is possible through the main archive web
interface or through the instrument
specific forms.
|
|
Access to master calibrations
|
Direct access to master calibrations is still not possible. More...
|
calibDB updates |
For many instruments, a set of master calibrations is stored
on the pipeline machines under the /cal tree. More...
|
|
File transfer
|
Files can be transfered between QC and PSO. For details check with your colleagues at PSO. |
