This parameter is determined from an overscan-subtracted calibration lamp exposure in LSS mode (taken with the template FORS2_lss_tec_flatLampcheck). The total signal is integrated and normalized by the exposure time and the total number of original CCD pixels (keeping into account possible binning). More information can be found in the plot tutorial. The setup of the lamp check is G300V, GG435 and 1arcsec slit.
NOTE: On April 18, 2016 the FlatBlue+4 lamp was disabled and later taken out of the instrument's calibration unit.
Since then, only FlatBlue+3 lamp is used for spectroscopic flats.
On November 15, 2016 the sub-plots relevant to the FlatBlue+4 lamp were removed.
