After installing, you are ready to reduce some DBSP data!
The basic usage of DBSP_DRP is as follows:
When reducing a night of data on a machine with multiple CPU cores, it is highly recommended to add the -j N flag to use N jobs for the telluric correction.
Note: the default setting is to open a GUI that allows you to verify that the header data is correct for all of the files. Add the option -i or --no-interactive to turn this behavior off.
If you only want to reduce a subset of your data, you can select unwanted files in the header validation table GUI and right click to delete them from the current reduction run. Be sure to always keep the standard stars you need for fluxing in the data reduction.
If you want to only reduce the red arm or the blue arm, add the flag --arm red or -a blue for short.
If you want lots of intermediate debugging plots displayed to the screen, add the flag --debug.
If you want to check that your target traces have been correctly identified, and manually select them if they were missed, add the flag --manual-extraction or -m for short. Check out manual_extraction for more details.
If you want to fine-tune the reduction parameters, create a parameter file like so:
and use the option -p params.cfg or its longer form --parameter-file params.cfg.
See PypeIt Parameters for more details on the full set of available parameters.
