selection-type1, ... Set the order in which specplot plots spectra. EXAMPLES -------- 1. To see the currently selected plot order without changing it, omit all arguments. 0>specorder Specplot selection order: baseline 0> 2. To plot one spectrum for each scan that is distinguishable from its neighbor by a 1 hour time gap: 0>spectime 306/07:56:44, 398/08:16:19, -60 Specplot time range 306/07:56:44 - 398/08:10:52, scan separation=60 mins 0>specorder time Specplot selection order: time 0>specplot 3. To change from plotting one spectrum per baseline selection, to plotting 1 page per baseline, partitioned into one spectrum of each of 4 stokes parameters. 0>specpol I,Q,U,V Specplot polarization selections: I, Q, U, V 0>specopt 4 Specplot nplot=4 x-axis=channels flags="3jJ". 0>specorder polarization, baseline Specplot selection order: polarization baseline 0>specplot 4. To see how the spectrum averaged over all baselines, changes with UV radius range. 0>specuvr 0,0,10 Specplot UV range: uvmin=0 uvmax=151.407 uvstep=10 (kilo-wavelengths) 0>specbase group,* Specplot will plot baseline groups: * 0>specorder uvrange Specplot selection order: uvrange 0>specplot ARGUMENTS --------- selection-type_1 - The type of the selection that will be incremented the fastest. The recognized selection types are: baseline - Baseline selections established with the 'specbase' command. polarization - Polarization selections established with the 'specpol' command. time - Time-range selections established with the 'spectime' command. uvrange - UV-radius range selections established with the 'specuvr' command. ... selection-type_n - The type of the selection that will be incremented each time that selection types 1 -> n-1 have been exhausted. CONTEXT ------- The specplot command plots scalar and vector averaged visibility spectra. The visibilities that are averaged to form each spectrum are selected by U-V radius range, polarization, time and baseline. On a given page only one of these quantities is allowed to change between plotted spectra, but when all values of that quantity have been exhausted, one of the other quantities may be incremented before starting the next page. The order in which the different quantities are incremented is determined by the 'specorder' command. By default, only the baseline selection specified by the 'specbase' command is allowed to increment. This behavior is the equivalent of what one would see after typing: 0>specorder baseline Alternatively, if one wanted to look at the spectrum of a specific group of baselines at different times, one would call the specbase and spectime commands to select the desired baseline group and the time ranges and then type: 0>specorder time If one wanted to extend this such that when one group of baselines had been displayed to each of the desired time ranges, a second group of baselines was plotted over the same time ranges, one would call the specbase command to select two baseline groups and type: 0>specorder time, baseline RELATED COMMANDS ---------------- specopt - Preset specplot display options. specsmooth - Preset the spectral resolution displayed by specplot. specbase - Select the baselines to be displayed by specplot. specpol - Select the list of polarizations to be displayed by specplot. spectime - Select the time ranges to be displayed by specplot. specuvr - Select the UV radius ranges to be displayed by specplot.
