For the obligatory columns in the input table, see the help of the latter. \ap\pa out_id = output identifier for the output of the test prodedure. The graphics output will start with this identifier. Default is TRANS. \ap\pa select = selection criterim to include/exclude entries in the transfer/linearity table from the tests. \ap\no Note: This command requires a value for the standard deviation of the bias level in keyword BIASSIGM and hence should be executed after the command TESTBA/CCD or TESTB5/CCD. If no value or the value zero is found no bias offset will be subtracted. \\ The command will determination of the transfer curve.\\ From the selected entries the table a linear regression analysis is done to determine the analog to digital conversion factor and the electronic readout noise. The readout noise is determined by the inverse of the slope between the median and the variance multiplied by the sigma of the bias (determined by TESTBA/CCD OR TESTB5/CCD and stored in keyword BIASSIGM).\\ \\ The full linearity and transfer test is done by the command TESTTA/CCD. \on\op Output: The command will stored the graphics output with the transfer curves in the postscript file `out_id'_trans.ps. \\ The keyword ADUCF and ENOISE are filled with the ADU conversion factor and the electronic noise (in electrons/pixel). \po\see See also: TESTTA/CCD, SET/CCD, SHOW/CCD, SELECT/TAB \ees\exs Examples: \ex TESTT3/CCD TRANS TRANS Fit the linearity data in the table TRANS.tbl.
